Feature Requests

This is one of those weird old holdovers from the beginning of Premiere that doesn't make a lot of sense anymore. I remember a long time ago where a lot of the sequence settings couldn't be changed after the fact (such as resolution!) This seems to be the only option we are still locked out of which slows down some workflows. The workaround has always been that to change from a stereo sequence to a multi-channel you have to use a multi-channel seqeunce preset or create one, and then paste your sequence from an old one into the new multi-channel seqeunce. It's a strange and infelxible part of the interface that gets in the way.  Request: Allow audio channel format to be changed after seqeunce created. Getting tired ot jumping through all the hoops when I just want to change to a multi-channel seqeunce from a stereo one. 

Being able to color code tabs when you have multiple sequences open.

Please, we urgently need proper Arabic language support in Adobe Premiere Pro. Many Adobe users in Arab countries struggle due to the lack of Arabic support, forcing us to rely on intermediary software and pay exorbitant fees.

We need subtitles in Romanian. It's a waste of money for us to pay for another service to translate our videos. We have a lot of languages, but no Romanian has been added. Is this at least in work or something?

Dear Adobe Premiere Pro Development Team, I truly appreciate the incredible work you’ve done with the Speech to Text feature in Premiere Pro. It has made the process of creating subtitles and captions so much easier for creators worldwide.I would like to kindly request the addition of Romanian (Română) as a supported language for transcription. Romanian is spoken by over 25 million people, and having it available in Premiere Pro would be a game-changer for many content creators, editors, and professionals who rely on accurate subtitles. And not only romanian. I strongly think other video creators will be amazed if this feature consider adding their language.Your commitment to innovation and inclusivity is remarkable, and I hope Romanian can be considered for a future update. Thank you for your time and dedication to improving this already amazing tool! Best regards,Octavian

While I appreciate the improvements to H264, I came here expecting to see the 25.2 release announcement with Gen Extend 🤯. In my brief testing so far, I am blown away! I do have a feature request, let me do a Generative "Morph Cut"/"Cross Dissolve" type transition. Sometimes I have to cut out part of my introduction or training videos, leaving a less than ideal transition, even with either of the aforementioned methods, but I can totally see where Gen Extend could "merge" the two pieces of the cut clip, making it look like it was all recorded in one take, with no sections removed. Save me TONS of re-recording time to end up with flawless "one-take" videos!   Branched from Welcome to Premiere Pro 25.1! Moved to Ideas board.

I use Premiere Pro regularly and often import large amounts of footage with different frame rates (FPS). To improve my workflow, I’d love to have the ability to filter (not just sort) clips in the Project panel by FPS — so I can temporarily view only the clips with a specific frame rate.I’m aware that it's possible to sort clips by frame rate, but there isn’t currently a way to filter and display only those with a certain FPS.In many cases, I import my footage already organized into different folders — which makes it harder to locate all clips with the same FPS and convert them together.As far as I know, this feature doesn’t currently exist — so I wanted to suggest it as a meaningful improvement based on my personal user experience.Thanks for considering it!

Removing MKV Format support has a negative impact on the workflow of people that work with broadcasting software like OBS. Restore MKV support. Having native support for MKVs, even if they don't edit well without generating proxies, saves me a ton of time that I'd otherwise have to spend remuxing/transcoding files.

In Adobe Photoshop, there is a type setting that allows the user to select a version/character encoding of the type font in usage, for instance, to switch from Russian to Bulgarian Cyrillic.No such thing is available in Premiere Pro (or in After Effects, for that matter). This makes a simple task like exporting a video with captions much more tedious. I found a partial solution that requires the usage of AE as well.You open PS, type your text and change the character encoding from there.You copy that text and paste it as a text layer into AE. The encoding is preserved. However, this doesn't happen when you paste copied text from PS to Premiere. The encoding remains the default. A setting to change it would be much appreciated.

I would like to have the playhead stay where I put it when performing edits in Premiere Pro, especially when zooming in/out. When zooming in/out the playhead always moves back to the center of the timeline regardless of where I position it, and regardless of the timeline scroll setting. (My scroll setting is set to page scroll.) For me, the expected behavior is that the playhead stays positioned and the timeline moves around it, since I manually positioned it. Ideally, the playhead position would not change with most edits or changes in view, because I want to edit where the playhead is positioned, and keep it positioned in the same place on the timeline. I can't edit as fast as I would like because I move the timeline/playhead to the left side of the timeline and when I zoom in to get a better view it scrolls the timeline so the playhead is centered, and I then have to scroll the timeline back to where I had it positioned. (Zooming out also does this, but it usually tak

If color coding needs to happen in the sequence, having these tied together can slow you down. Thanks.

When I apply default transitions on multiple mono tracks which are all linked together, I can't seem to adjust all the transitions at once - this significantly slows me down.Is there a simple solution that I'm missing?  Premiere Version: 25.0.0Thanks!

As in subject - is there a way to sort Sequences in the Project Panel by the date created? I know I can do it with the footage - by adding a metadata column with the creation date, but I didn't find the option for sequences.Context - I reopen old files and I have problems remembering what was the last edited sequence. (now I have a better naming system with the dates)

Please Tell me its a simple process, i added a lot of compression and e.q. and reverbs to the audio Track (like all on track 1)im please with the sound so in the future edits of other projects i want to grab this presets onto other projects

Hello, just tried the Transcription options in Premiere Pro CC and is quite interesting, specially for generating automatic subtitles. Is there a chance you will support catalan any time soon? There are plenty of online IAs working with catalan already 🙂    Thank you very much!! 

At the moment the action to scroll is blocked while selecting text in the text panel while text-based editing, this means you must drag your cursor up to scroll up which accelerates at an unpredictable speed and can easily select far too much text. I suggest unblocking the scroll action so users can click and hold then simply scroll at their own controlled speed to continue selecting up & down while also being able to move the mouse for precision selection.

1 - In the timeline the new FX button inside each video clip does not shrink with the timeline, so when the clip is small the FX button takes up the whole clip, and selecting the clip only transfers you to the FX panel. Which I can do manually if I need to. Infuriating and pointless.  2 - The Program window now Mouse Zooms like crazy with no way to turn this off. Equally infuriating and pointless. Please can Adobe fix these...

I think the UI has become cool, but1.I want each clip to look good.It would be nice if the user could control the option to increase the visibility of the outline of the clip.I wish I could choose from the outline creation, color, thickness, brightness, etc.2. I hope that each track will have a shortcut key set for the lock function.Also, it would be great to have a function that drags when you lock, mute, or look or drag it at once.3. I would like to turn on and off the option of the function that can be displayed when there is a blank space on the track.

Hi - with the latest updates I've notice for whaver reason (the new pre-added audio dissolves on clips maybe?) but the number of times when I'm dragging and moving a clip in my Sequence I ALSO / or INSTEAD drag the volume of the clip up or down. I'd love there to be a toggle per clip or per sequence - or in the master sequence settings an option toggle for 'Lock clip audio when dragging'.  Also, the new audio dissolve controls means when editing I usually end up dragging the clip, or altering the volume of the clips either side of the edit, rather than adjusting the in/out point of the beginning of the dissolve. Any way to lock this feature, too? (in short if I'm editing or touching a highlighted audio dissolve there's almost NEVER an instance when what I'm intending to do is move the clip or change the volume of the clips - If that thing is highlighted I ONLY want to alter the in or outpoint of the dissolve. I'd love to have an option for 'LOCK CLIPS on DISSOLVE HIGHTLIGHT'

Add an "Upgrade Caption to Graphic" Button or shortcut in the "Text" window on the "Captions" tab. I have been using Premiere to quickly make captions for social media videos with "Transcript" and "Create Captions from Transcript". From the captions track, I then choose key captions to "upgrade to graphic" so I can have more control/options using graphic clips on the timeline by using the "properites" tab, adding effects, layering captions/texts, etc. Each time I have to select the caption on the caption track, I have to go to the "Graphics and Titles" menu and select "Upgrade Caption to Graphic". It would speed up my workflow if that option were available from the "Captions" tab on the "Text" window. In the same area as the "Add Caption", "Merge Captions", etc. area I think would be very convienent. Thank you!

So I went through an entire transcript identifying 6 separate speakers for a show, thinking- "clearly this will allow me to do something in the captions- to label them when they're off screen talking".  But no. It doesn't. Have I overlooked something or is this just insanely crucial option missing?

Credo sia molto utile aggiungere una funzione "RIMUOVI ATTRIBUTI" per le clips sorgenti.Si possono applicare effetti con un semplice "COPIA -> INCOLLA" selezionando tutte le clip nella cartella presente nella finestra "PROGETTO" ma l'azione contraria necessita inevitabilmente l'intervento su una clip alla volta.Sarebbe ideale poter selezionare il gruppo di clips interessate e poter eliminare gli attributi incollati.

こんにちは。プレミアプロでオーディオの整音をしています。 １つのオーディオクリップに6つから8つのオーディオエフェクトをかけたいので、クリップに直接エフェクトを入れているのですが、その後クリップのカットがあるなど影響を受けるのが難点です。オーディオ版の調整レイヤーを作ることは出来ないでしょうか？ 一方のオーディオトラックミキサーでのやり方もありますが、こちらはエフェクトが５つまで、かつ他のシーケンスにコピーペーストで持っていけません。かけられるエフェクトの増量とコピーペーストが出来るようにはならないでしょうか？ 改善されたら嬉しいです。

A common issue I've seen here. When exporting a sequence from premiere the color shifts dramatically in the majority of playback programs. Quicktime, Vimeo, Youtube etc. VLC works fine but not everybody is using VLC. Makes for lots of wasted time on color grades.   Comments from Adobe below This is an issue we (Adobe) are aware of. The best desciption of this issue is in this article and the related video: https://www.todddominey.com/2021/01/24/why-are-videos-washed-out-on-the-mac-exploring-quicktime-gamma-shift/   A feature for handling this issue - adjustable Viewer Gamma - has been added to Premiere Pro v24 and is explained in this documentation: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-ideas/quicktime-gamma-shift-prevent-color-shift-on-export-from-premiere-on-macos/idc-p/14186643.   Fergus

On Windows 10/11, even if you have dark mode enabled in Windows theme settings, it still leaves you with a white glaring title bar on the top of Premiere Pro and After Effects (pictured). I understand this is a technical limitation from Microsoft since their dark mode is wonky, not perfect (essentially just a lazy reskin of their white menus), and even broken in some contexts, but I think what Adobe devs could do is create their own title bars in-app similar to how Photoshop and Acrobat do, and that will give them the ability to color it independantly from Windows. With the onset of different OLED monitors becoming more common & mainstream in the near future, this would be a really helpful feature request as it can help avoid burn-in of pixels, and also cause less stress on the eyes for longer periods of work.Presently, the only real way to get dark title bars in these applications is to use third-party Windows customization software and themes, which pose a major risk to
