Premiere Elements

AVCHD UpShift, from NewBlue, convert AVCHD (hi-def MP4) to more standard HD-mpeg (hi-def MPEG .m2t), a format that is both more universally editable and which demands significantly less system resources.http://www.newbluefx.com/avchd-upshift.html The product sells for $49.95. Another solution that will convert your AVCHD to formats more easily edited on a PC with no loss quality.  http://www.shedworx.com/voltaichd Note, of course, with any conversion, your output files will be much larger, so allow for that extra hard drive space. It sells for $34.99.More information on the why's and how's of converting video for Premiere Elements can be found in my article "Converting Video for Premiere Elements", free from Muvipix.com.

I have Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0 and I want to end a video with the effect of it looking like it goes to a TV screen of static with that sound.  Is there any possible way to do that???

I'm using Premiere Elements 7. I discovered after burning my slideshow that the photos flicker on the TV screen, which looks horrible. The FAQ says you can try and reduce this using flicker removal, but when I right-click on the pictures, "Field Options" is grayed out. Does anyone know why this is, and/or how to make it a selectable option? And do I really have to do this with every individual photograph? Also, the menu flickers as well (it's a still photo)... is there any way to address that? If it matters, the TV being used is standard def. I'm shocked that this is even an issue... I just assumed that any half-decent slideshow software should be able to correct this sort of problem automatically.

Hi, My first time on the forums. I wanted to know if it is possible to separate audio from video, (that is, using Premiere Elements) from digital video files various formats. My purpose is to create .wav and/or .mp3 sound files, by starting with .avi or other video+sound sources (my own, no copyright problem). Can Premiere Elements do this, and if so, how? I have my own music performance films which were made as films not for the video but because the digital sound quality was so good, but I would like to be able to get the sound out, re-save it as sound files without the video, and then re-use it as background soundtracks for some new video projects. Any ideas? My e-mail is jgibsosman@sbcglobal.net if someone has an answer and can write directly, with a subject line like "Re Premiere Elements Question" or something; also, I will check back here, but am new and unfamiliar with the forum so e-mail instructions would be fine with me. Thanks.
