Quick Preface:Sorry for dumping a quick AI written feature request. I'm currently mid project and I wanted to quickly get this up before I forget, but after realizing that premiere's console feature is so robust at isolating and identifying bottlenecks, I at a loss for why they don't just translate this information for less technically inclined individuals. Of course, a lot of these issues are true RTFM or "let me google that for you" type things, but realistically it would be way easier if they were to cut out the middle man and just identify your bottlenecks and recommend solutions / link to help or FAQ threads.SummaryPremiere Pro should include a user-facing "Performance" or "Bottleneck" panel that surfaces the diagnostic information the application already collects internally. This would help users identify what's causing timeline slowdowns without needing to dig through debug logs or guess at solutions.The ProblemPremiere Pro already tracks detailed performance metrics internally:Async source timeouts (with specific file names and frame numbers)Frames dropped during playbackPreroll and prefetch timesRender times per frameCodec decode issuesGPU acceleration failuresVFR detectionProxy/source mismatches This information is logged to debug consoles and log files that most users don't know exist, can't easily interpret, and aren't designed for troubleshooting. Meanwhile, users experience sluggish timelines and have no insight into why—leading to hours of trial-and-error troubleshooting, forum searches, and frustration.The application knows exactly what's causing the slowdown. It just doesn't tell the user.Suggested SolutionAdd a "Performance" panel (Window > Performance) that displays real-time and historical diagnostics in plain language:Real-time indicators:Current playback status (smooth / dropping frames / buffering)Which clip or effect is causing delaysWhether the bottleneck is CPU decode, GPU render, disk I/O, or RAMIssue detection with recommendations:"Variable Frame Rate detected in [clip]. This may cause proxy sync issues. [Learn more] [Conform to CFR]""Async decode timeout on [clip]. Consider transcoding to an edit-friendly codec or creating proxies.""GPU acceleration unavailable for [effect]. Rendering on CPU.""Disk read speed insufficient for [resolution/codec]. Media is on [drive type]."Session log:Scrolling list of performance events during the sessionFilterable by severity (info / warning / error)Clickable entries that navigate to the problem clip in the timelineWhy This Matters:Users shouldn't need to enable debug consoles and parse log files to understand why their edit is lagging. When Premiere detects a problem—and it does detect these problems—that information should be accessible in a way that helps users take action.This is especially important as source media becomes more varied. Content from smartphones, screen recordings, streaming rips, and consumer cameras often uses codecs and frame rate modes that aren't ideal for editing. Users working with this footage deserve to understand what's happening rather than assuming their hardware is inadequate or that Premiere is simply "slow."Surfacing existing diagnostic data in a user-friendly way would significantly improve the editing experience and reduce support burden.EnvironmentPremiere Pro 2025Windows 11Issue encountered while troubleshooting VFR HEVC footage with proxy workflow
I am getting the error message, "Offline material is present in this export and has proxies attached. Offline material will be encoded using the proxies" when I go to export. I have reattached the full resolution to the proxies a handful of ways and i continue to receive this message. Can Adobe improve the error message to highlight/point out the specific clips that it will render proxies for instead of using the full resolution media?
2026 and Premiere's transcription is still terrible. Especially for non-American accents. I work mostly with Australian footage, and find myself having to correct the transcription all the time. Most other transcription services are WAY better. Adobe should just integrate OpenAI's Whisper, or other transcription APIs into Premiere, because the current one SIMPLY ISN'T GOOD.
Please add a font size slider to increase font size in the Markers panel. I just noticed this already exists for the Text panel, which is great! Please do the same for the Markers panel! I use marker descriptions for sequences markers extensively when logging footage, especially for interviews. I find the text in the description field of the marker panel annoyingly hard to read.

There are a ton of 8/16bit int effects in Premiere. Some surely have their reasons but there are two quite important basic tools that should really match the capabilities of the ones used in AE. Levels Brightness & Contrast While Lumetri is a nice tool for certain things, even in an editing software we sometimes need compact basic math like Gain, Offset, Linear Contrast, Gamma which those two effects provide. I'd like to see them upgraded to support 32bit (unlcamped) and have their represented values become float instead of 8bit in the case of Levels. It would also be nice if the Levels effect could be represented in the same UI fashion as AE rather than the flat list of parameters. Frankly the whole AE tool in PR with black/white clip options etc would be the best. Furthermore I hope that there is a roadmap to upgrade many other effects to suppert 32bit as well. In an ideal world you would work in scenelinear for building effects onto scene referred footage which requires all those tools to support floating point.
Add a key-assignable command in Adobe Audition that moves the playhead to the current mouse cursor position on the timeline—exactly like the ‘Move Playhead to Cursor’ shortcut in Premiere Pro. This would allow instant navigation without clicking, significantly speeding up editing and timing workflows.
When batch renaming I would like the old name to be added to the keywords list. this way when renaming the old name can still be found.
When my sequence timeline begins to fill with multiple tracks of clips (video and audio) and I want to, for example, toggle the track output or mute the audio, it's a bit challenging to find what track the clip is on, when there are maybe 12 tracks and they're at the minimum height. Wondering if Adobe can pop a track highlight color or frame on the affected timeline track nomenclature (left of the timeline) when a clip on said track is selected?
Adobe Portfolio is a potentially powerful tool for creatives to get their message out. However, it is hampered by not being very text-savvy. It's downright clunky.I'm not looking for a blog site (though that would be nice, too), but having multiple paragraphs of text--a bio, a desription, an essay, etc.-- is clunky to write and seems to be missing some key text attributes such as indents, quotes, and lists, both ordered and unordered. Even standard web designations such as Headers 1 to 4 are missing, which are important for SEO. Given Adobe's presence in web design, I'm always surprise Portfolio is so handcuffed.In other words, Adobe has provided us with a great tool that goes nowhere. Adding even these simple text attributes would elevate the usefulness and presence of our Portfolio sites.
It would be tremendous if some day MediaEncoder could do bulk AAF/OMF and XML/EDL exports. xo, L
Please offer credit packages for one-time purchase; that suits me much better than a subscription that I have to cancel after a project. Do it like KLING; they offer packages! Thanks!
Wann werden in Premiere die CRM-Dateien so flüssig bearbeitbar sein, wie sie das jetzt schon in DaVinci Resolve sind? Wo liegt das Problem?
I need to get the full control over the prores raw (both from iphone and from atomos devices) like user on final cut can have. At the moment you just supported the reading of the file and the gamma (which BTW is very well hidden!!!). Please let's give full support to this format! Best, Davide
Please allow multipe catalogs in Lightroom (cloud). I need to be able to support different sets of photos and do not want them mixed together in "All photos" thanks,
I can't tell you how frustrating it is when you're working with a lot of artboards and you switch from one to another and the move tool constantly switches to artboard tool. Is there a way to prevent this behavior? All settings people suggest on internet do not solve this. - Deleting the shortcut doesn't do it. - Checking "Use Shift key for tool switch" doesn't do it - Unchecking "Spring-loaded tool shortcuts" does not do it. Why would Adobe think that once I select an artboard, I want to have the tool selected? Why?? Adobe Why?!?!? Hope you can see my frustration. There probably should be a setting somewhere where tools don't auto switch on you. Also.. give us the ability to dock the "contextual task bar" that thing is [cursing removed] annoying floating around, or always being in the wrong place. Rant off.
