Feature Requests

It is a waste of time and clicks to have to click the “toggle sync lock” button on the timeline/track area - every time I want to use that command .if there was a way to map that command to a key or series of keys.. would make trimming much faster for me. 

Optimize MXF peak file generation to look at only the audio portion of the file. This is a bug / feature request.  Steps  1. Import MXF wrapped video file (ideally something big like 4444 prores or XAVC-I 4K)2. Audio peak file generation occurs 3. Notice that the peak file generation is pretty slow compared to how long an audio only track should be4. disk activity kept very high while Premiere Reads entire file, video, and audio to make an audio waveform.  Result: MXF Waveform generation takes a really, really long time on high resolution media, when Premiere should be loking at the audio of the MXF file. Expected Result: When footage of similar file size and resolution is in a quicktime wrapper, peak file generation happens at a 3-4x pace.  Request:Optimize MXF peak file generation.  If for some reason you have to delete your entire media cache, which happens often with troubleshooting performance, Premeire can take an e

Issue: Auto Reframe no longer tracks a person's head in a static talking-head shot. The Analyze function does nothing.Steps to reproduce:Create a 9:16 sequence from a normal 16:9 talking-head video.Apply Auto Reframe to the clip.Set Motion Tracking to Faster Motion.Click Analyze.Expected result:Premiere should analyze the clip and generate Position keyframes that automatically move the 9:16 frame horizontally to follow the person's head, as Auto Reframe has done in previous versions.Actual result:Nothing happens when I click Analyze. No useful analysis occurs and no tracking movement/keyframes are generated. The vertical frame does not follow the person's head.This workflow has worked for me many times in previous versions of Premiere. I am not trying to learn how to use Auto Reframe; I am reporting that the functionality itself is no longer working as it previously did.This is particularly frustrating because Auto Reframe was extremely useful for exactly this type of static talking-he

Please simplify and make track targeting behavior consistent and predictable.When I copy a clip from the timeline and paste it, I expect the clip to be pasted onto the currently selected/targeted video track (for example V4), especially when V1 is explicitly disabled as a target.Currently, Premiere can paste the copied clip back onto its original track instead, which can overwrite existing work on that track. This is extremely confusing and can potentially destroy part of an existing edit.The UI already provides clear V1/V2/V3/V4 track-targeting controls, so users naturally expect Ctrl+V to respect the selected target track.Please either: Make standard Paste (Ctrl+V) respect Track Targeting, or Provide a simple, clearly documented preference that lets users choose between: Paste to Original Track Paste to Target Track Having separate concepts such as Source Patching, Track Targeting, Paste to Same Track and Paste to Target Track makes a very simple editing operation unnecess

Please introduce a toggleable "Magnetic Timeline" mode in Premiere Pro, inspired by the primary storyline behavior found in Final Cut Pro and modern fast-turnaround editors like CapCut.The Problem:Currently, making fast structural edits, deleting clips, reordering scenes, or inserting B-roll often results in unwanted gaps, accidental overwrites, or out-of-sync audio/video tracks unless the editor manually shifts clips or relies heavily on ripple-delete shortcuts and track sync locks. For content creators, social media editors, and documentary storytellers who iterate rapidly, the traditional track-based rigidity introduces unnecessary friction.Proposed Solution:A dedicated toggle button on the Timeline Header (e.g., next to "Snap in Timeline" or "Linked Selection") that enables Magnetic Mode:1. Auto-Close Gaps (Ripple by Default): Deleting, trimming, or moving a clip on the primary story track automatically pulls adjacent clips together with zero empty space left behind.2. Collision Av

Hi, I am trying to create caption in Bahasa Indonesia for a Video. But Premiere Pro auto caption allows only few languages such as English, Mandarin, Spanish, German, French and Japanese, etc.It will be helpful if Bahasa Indonesia is available for this feature because my video editing project is in Bahasa Indonesia.

I’m working on a project, and I go to reference another video with the context of referring someone to watch a previous video for education purposes, I pin a short clip of the referenced video on the timeline just above the major video then scale it down so it draws the viewer for just a brief second to the referenced video I like them to eventually go and look at. I would like them to see the whole full referenced so if I could add hyperlink on the video so when they click it or a text that says “click here for full video it will take them there. Just like in YouTube except this video is not on YouTube its on Instagram so it's not like I could make card for it. So what if you guys allowed hyperlink embedding write on the timeline! That would be a game changer because then we could reference videos on platforms lime TikTok or Instagram or anywhere where the link will take them and just embed it on something they could click. Make sure when you guys follow through with this, I get my Cr

You select all linked comps from the project panel and then with control click select a feature that allows you to render and replace all linked comps within a selected sequence . instead of manually having to select every linked comp in a sequence and ask to render it do a batch render and replace so you can save hundreds of hours , especially for people like me that use a lot of linked comps in premiere.

It would be nice to be able to generate a voiceover from captions in order to replace poor quality voice recordings and improve consistency of videos. A part of my job is to generate voiceovers using outside tools in order to create instructional videos recorded by different people on different quality microphones, so that the final videos have a consistent audio quality regardless of who recorded it. It’s a slow task, and it occurred to me that given Adobe’s recent focus on AI QoL upgrades, this might be a good feature to add. Especially because we already have the audio timing created by the captions.

This one seems to have been floating around on the forums for a couple of years but we are still pleading. Production Sound Mixers take the time on set to properly label their audio tracknames. Editors need to see these in the Premiere Pro timeline, like this:  In Premiere, the current trackname labels of [Ch.1], [Ch.2].... are not descriptive enough.Currently, tracknames are found under "iXML", buried at the very bottom of the Metadata panel, behind numeruous drop down menus. This is not adequate.  Having this simple piece of metadata in the timeline will save a huge amount of time and headache and is an absolute necessity in professional editing software. Thank you!

So I received a mixdown of an edit, in logC. I overwrote the media colorspace in the source clip, making it rec709.However, the edit included a few shots of archive material that were already rec709. Overriding the input color space for just these shots on sequence clip level in color management seems logical, but this is a fixed setting.The workaround this is making a subclip and changing it there, but it would be more logical if I can just override the source colorspace for these few shots on sequence clip level in color management .

Feature Request: Duplicate Detection & Select All in Effects Panel I would like to request two improvements to the Premiere Pro Effects panel: 1. Duplicate Preset DetectionPremiere currently allows the same preset to be imported multiple times without any warning or duplicate detection. This can quickly create unnecessary duplicates in large preset libraries. Please consider adding automatic duplicate detection with options such as: - Replace- Skip- Keep Both An “Apply to All” option would also be useful during batch imports. 2. Select All in Effects PanelPlease add a standard Select All (Ctrl/Cmd + A) function to the Effects panel, allowing users to select all visible presets/effects for bulk management, deletion, or organization. These two features would significantly improve preset-library management and workflow efficiency, especially for editors working with large Effects libraries.

i need the old trusty lumetri color panel on the new v27 premiere pro. i used it for 10 years and i cant cope with the new awfull color mode! i need to work fast to keep with the deadlines and the color mode is a joke! 

why there is a box like a transition on my footage eventho im not adding any?? adobe please remove this feature, its annoyed me everytime i want to drag my footage

I just spent 10 minutes trying to find where the sequence presets are stored. So there’s this menu item where a user can save custom timeline presets to not adjust it on every edit. In Premiere it’s called Create Preset from Sequence - misleading, because you actually think you create a timeline preset, but this thing saves the entire sequence settings ind is found in the timeline menu:So what’s next? You think you can go to the same timeline menu and select one of the presets you saved previously, right? This is what logics tells you. But no, you cannot find any timeline preset anywhere in Premiere menus. Just nowhere. And the truth is that all the presets are saved here:It’s the menu you see when you create a new sequence.Who’s idea was it, who thought it’s logical and user-friendly? Why cannot I select the presets I save in the menu I use to save these presets?So this is a feature request - please, make it logical, add another menu in the timeline wrench settings where one can easil

Can we please have the option to disable these grey squares on each end of the clip on our timeline (the transition handles). They are incredibly irritating. I used to be able to click and drag clips with no problem. Now it’s so frustrating to move clips without accidentally engaging with the transition handles to create transitions between clips (which I don’t want to do).We need the option to disable these, please and thank you.And also trying to extend an audio transition doesn’t work. It often makes me trim the clip before of after. 

I am writing to request the addition of Marathi language support for the Auto Subtitles/Auto Captions feature in Adobe Premiere Pro.Marathi is one of the major languages spoken in India, with millions of native speakers, particularly across Maharashtra and other parts of the country. However, Marathi is currently not available as a language option for automatic subtitle generation in Premiere Pro.As a content creator, video editor, and educator in India, I frequently work on Marathi videos, social media content, educational videos, advertisements, and promotional reels. Creating Marathi subtitles manually takes a significant amount of time and makes the editing workflow less efficient.Adding Marathi to Adobe's Auto Caption/Subtitle feature would be extremely useful for:Marathi content creators and YouTubers Professional video editors and filmmakers Social media creators producing Reels and short-form videos Educational institutions and teachers Businesses creating Marathi advertisement

Make the existing tools work without crashing.

Hello,I would like to see a Adobe Premiere Pro have a fucntion similar to the below: https://www.nvidia.com/en-in/geforce/news/jan-2023-nvidia-broadcast-update/Can I expect this to happen anytime soon? Thanks.   

I would like to request a new feature that would greatly enhance subtitle creation and viewer engagement in video editing: automatically animated subtitles with dynamic word-by-word highlighting synchronized to the speaker's voice.Feature Description:This feature would allow editors to import or generate subtitles, and have Premiere Pro automatically:Highlight each word as spoken, matching the timing precisely with the audio.Provide customizable animation styles for the highlighting (e.g., underline, color change, bold, scaling).Benefits:Improves accessibility and readability, especially for educational, social media, and interview content.Saves editors significant time compared to manual word-level animation.Makes videos more engaging and interactive, especially on platforms where subtitles are often watched without sound.Adds a professional polish to subtitle-heavy content without requiring After Effects.Thank you for considering this enhancement. It would be a game-changer for many

I recently updated to Premiere Pro 2026 and went to create a mask. To my surprise and confusion, there was no option to do so in the Effect Controls. So, after being forced to research it online, I finally found that masks were inexplicably moved to the toolbar. Annoying and unnecessary, but whatever. I went to try keyframing the mask path… and nothing happened. I then had to conduct further research online to find out that, for some reason, I have to right-click on the mask and assign it to “Opacity.” Another extra step that makes no sense. So, I figured that it should finally work. Spoiler: it did not. At this point, I was enraged. Ready to punch my monitor, throw my PC out the window, mere seconds from a crashout. What else could I possibly need to do to create something so simple as an opacity mask? After consulting the internet for the THIRD time, I found that I’m supposed to switch the mask from “Frame” mode to “Clip” mode. Unbelievable. What is it with Adobe and fixing stuff tha

I really hate how dragging to change values of different parameters is realized in Premiere. It changes EVERY single time I click it to type a value, so I have to make many more clicks to just type in a value I need. Why is this feature so sensitive? It should not move until you really click-hold and drag it, there should be some less sensitivity in that or this feature should be optional and be switchable in the preferences.Second: who tested it? Why is the draggable area so large and uneven? It should be just the size of the number box but instead it’s twice as wide.Because huge problems begin when the Effects window is narrowed to this:In this case you are not able to hit the Set keyframe or Go to the previous keyframe icons.
