Feature Requests

I would love to be able to disable/remove the source/program zoom bars/behavior.  I never use them and many times I enable them accidentally when trying to zoom into the timeline.   Thank you!

I updated my desktop to Premiere 24.4.1 and kept my latop on 24.3. I initially had an issue with the new color palette but figured since you can change 24.4.1 to "Classic", there would be no issue. But the selection marker is demonstrably smaller in the latest version and harder to see. The attached screenshots show the same project with the same clips selected. On one it's obvious and on the other, not so much. I've never struggled so much to find my place in a timeline. Making the marker larger would help tons and probably not have so many users complaining about the colors. Thanks

The new audio crossfade handles in premiere suck. It keeps selecting the clip when I'm selecting the handle. This wasn't an issue with the previous handles, they were easily selectable 

As a documentary editor, I'm really loving the text-based editing workflow, and it has helped me out a ton. However, there are a couple of things I'd really love to see added to the existing Text window. First, It would be amazing to see direct integrations with Chat GPT or another AI that could automatically manipulate the trascript based on prompts. I'm already doing this somewhat by exporting transcripts directly into Chat GPT and generating ideas for edits...but an integrated window within Premiere that could respond and create rough cuts based on the transcript would be insanely helpful. 🙂 Secondly, I am consistently using the search feature to remove unnecessary words and phrases all at once. One thing  I would really like to see is the ability to identify and remove back-to-back repeated words when someone starts and stops. Additionally, identification of common unnecessary phrases like "I mean" or "you know" would be somewhat helpful. Loving the upda

Option to set default marker length. Or a keyboard shortcut to extend length of marker. At least enough to be able to see the label's text.

Hey friends, It's time to bring one of the best hacks of audiobooks to Premiere Pro. The beloved 1.1-1.5x playback speed. I had the idea today that it would be nice to have some slower shuttle speeds (JKL keys). Intead of just 1x, 2x, 3x, etc. It would be nice to have 1.2x - 1.5x. Sometimes 2x is just too fast to understand everything that's being said in an interview, espcially if the interviewee is speaking quickly. If you have 8 hours of interview footage to review, 1.5x would save you over 2.5 hours.

Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere, I tried a search but nothing came up. The EDL export options in Premiere are in need of an update.  In the world of features we need to be able to export formats beyond CMX3600, such as File 129.  Additionally, on the sound side, we need to be able to export more than 4 tracks per EDL.  We should be allowed to export as many tracks as we want in a single file.  Lastly, we need the ability to save preferences, same as we can for workspaces and project view settings.  We make EDL's for picture and sound, both are very different.  Having to manually adjust the settings each time we go to export an EDL is not ideal. Thank you!

Hi! In Premiere Pro, I I would like to request and suggest that there be a language recognition function in Hungarian language on the Create captions from transcript mode. Tank you very much! Gergő

Hello are there any plugin(or other way to do it) that would help me in creatingvisual fx..like "video synth" to create colors,noise, and plugin that video react to audio input?i want it in premiere, no after effect!thanks

Another really problematic thing: the hotkeys for "Step Forward / Backward 1 Frame" don't actually operate in frames. They operate in whatever time units the Timeline is set to. So, if the Timeline is set to Show Audio Time Units, the hotkeys only step forward or back by one audio sample. How is this helpful?Apparently, if the Timeline is set to Show Audio Time Units, there's no way to snap the current time to whole frames. Dragging the edges of clips does snap to frames, but when clicking in the Timeline to change the current time (location of play head), the cursor only snaps to audio samples.Really, the limitations of the Premiere UX just defy all rational expectations. Compare to Vegas, which has no problems A) zooming in to arbitrary levels of magnification, B) snapping to whatever the user wants to snap to, regardless of anything else, and C) accurately displaying continuous thumbnails.Really, Premiere is just such a huge disappointment.

I have searched and googled, but still haven't found anything. Is there a keyboard short cut / is it possible to assign a short cut to the Lumetri Auto Color correction? I understand it is not possible at the time being to auto color to multiple clips, but I hope to find a better way than to use the mouse and press the button in thep lumetri pannel for every clip in the sequence. Thanks.

As an editor, I'd like to request a stop to certain changes.The latest look of transition icons on the timeline are horrendous. It looks like that particular clip has been selected and it's harder to see where the transition actually starts and ends. Starting a new project is bizzarely confusing as well. It's as if you need to save everything twice. Rather than setting 'new project' and naming it, there's more hoops to jump through. Opening a project whilst in a project used to essentially close Premiere and open that new project up. Now it opens it AS WELL. What if you make changes to that, does it save in the original project, or only in the project you've opened as well as the other one? Now a small, simple project seems to have imported everything from another project that I opened at the same time, now everything's combined and all over the place.

Good morningEveryone has their own style of editing and I like to keep all the tracks minimized in my timelines.  Every time I add a new clip or image to a timeline, it appears expanded and I need to minimize it.Is there a way to stop this?  I want to drag & drop and have the tracks stay minimzed. Just one of those small, slightly irritating things that I would like to change 🙂Thanks Kim 

this might be the only way how to edit in avid, but for me this works in premiere very well too (not having to use the mouse):1. turning on the target tracks for certain tracks2. pressing a shortcut (for example) to add edit the only problem is that there is no very fast way in premiere to turn on these target tracks,because it is a toggle for all tracks for  v and a seperately, you always have to watch left and see which tracks are allready off and onin avid you have: turn off all tracks, then turning on f.e. v1 and a1 now in premiere there are source assignment presets which is greatfor me what would be fantastic if there would be target assignment presets too another option that would be great would be: one key that turns off (not toggle) all target tracks offthen with a macro keyboard, like this it would be possible to create a: all tracks off - v1 - a1 macro plugin excalibur has the option to make all target tracks off but unfortunately this can take secon

The mask in the effects control panel should allow you to create a perfect square mask.Dragging a shape using the Shift key will create a perfect circle in Photoshop and Illustrator.Premiere Pro users are frustrated because they can't do this when creating masks with effects or opacity.エフェクトコントロールパネルのマスクで完全な正方形のマスクを作成できるようにすべきだ！Shiftキーを使用して図形をドラッグすると、PhotoshopとIllustratorで完全な円を作成できます。Premiere Proユーザーは、エフェクトや不透明度でマスクを作成する時、これを行うことができないため、不満を感じています。

Can you please add a "Last Modified" time-stamp to the headers in the bins?  This would be extremely helpful to see a timestamp of when a sequence was last modified.  Sometime when sequences are copied, one might forget which one was used with the latest mods if not properly renamed when copied, LOL Best to all-

Since the 24.4 update that changed the interaction with transitions between clips, you can no longer grab the clip break line with ripple, rolling edit, slip tools etc when your mouse is in the red area and you have a transition applied.You can only grab it when your mouse is in the green area which is very fiddly to do since it tries to click on the transition itself, rather than the edit point.It gets even harder when the track is shrunk to a small size and the relative red deadzone is still there but now the grabbable sections are even smaller. Please fix this by allowing these tools to grab ANYWHERE on the edit break line like it previously used to 

I would love to work on Premiere or Photoshop or Lightroom in the new Apple Vision Pro. Is Adoble planning to port CC to Vision Pro once it comes out? Is there a timeline? 

Long time Media Composer editor here. I've edited tons of TV series. Recently swtiched to Premiere Pro and cannot believe the software won't allow me to see the clip durations on the timeline. It's very important for quickly gauging pace and assessing an edit. This software seems to have so many optinons and bells and whistles, but his BASIC editorial control of seeing the clip duration of each clip on the timeline is essential. Until they have this, it's kind of hard to take this software seriously as an editor. At its core, editorial is about pacing, and this software does not give me the very very very basic tool of seeing my clip durations. 

I usually work with interview footage. For a while now, since Adobe introduced text based editing, I have been using it and it has been incredibly helpful to work with. However, I have always felt it could be faster. The current system works by playing the video and stopping when a transcript selection has been made. Then the editor decides what to do with that selection. However, there are 2 things that happen through this process: 1) The editor has to constantly pause and play the footage while selecting the content.2) When the selection is integrated to the timeline and we continue on, the selection is overwritten. I would like to see a "highlight" form of text based editing. In this mode, the editor would have the transcript rolling along with the footage as it plays, like it currently does. However, when a selection is made, playback would not stop on the video, but the text would be highlighted in the transcript. The editor can now continue playing the footage, making h

Premiere Pro AI text to speech transcription's not in KAZAKH language. Let's change it!I see that the list of supported languages is small but right now Kazakh language and people who speak and use Premiere is growing fast. Would be nice to have Kazakh transcriptionist in your montage table or mobile app in Kazakhstan. Thumbs up and comment!

For this feature request, I am inspired by Blender. It has many niche features that can be useful, but are disabled by default. You can go into the program's settings, and toggle them on and off in the form of Addons. I feel like Adobe products in general could benefit from something like this immensely. I do not wish for Premiere to put computing power towards scanning my audio for speakers, I do not ever use any of the default effect presets, I do not ever use any of the libraries, I do not ever use markers. These are things that get in my way when they show up in searches, in menues, in my day-to-day life. Give me greater control to customize Premiere Pro on my machine and I will be a significantly happier user.

I just can't figure out Adobe's UI designers.So many updates I regretted I've done, so many UI design mistakes and bizzare approach. I think that your attitude and contempt for us -the users, will eventually strengthen the waves of leaving for alternatives.Why should I need to look for how to configure (from the beginning) each color of every item in your interface after I got used to working in a certain way- are you out of your mind?Did you mentioned this info in BOLD / headline of the update info?Did you ask your users if they even want to change the color? Did you published a pool about it?Who will compensate us for this waste of time?

"Project models for social media" have been added in the New Project window, but could it be completed to portaits preconfigurations for social networks in Export window ? If you want to export your work into a portrait format for Facebook, Instagram, YouTube Short or TikTok, you have to do it yourself manually, instead of use a predefined preconfiguration like you do it simply where you work on a landscape format for Vimeo, YouTube, Facebook or Twitter. You then have to search the Internet to find the optimal audio and video data rates for this or that social network.

You guys moved the fx button on the clips to the right. WHY?Im constantly hitting that button immediatly after I place the clip but now I have to move the mouse all the way to the right instead of where it was on the left. Im going to get arthritis before im 40. Plus I was used to it, why change it or atleast give the option to switch wherever you want
