Premiere Elements

I upgraded from the old version 15 after reading the sales pitch for Adobe Photoshop and Elements 2022. What a disappointing experience. First I hate when programs install JUNK that I have no use for and then I am not able to delete or disable it. I have no need for Adobe Creative Cloud. I find that my obsolete Camtasia Studio Version 7 more user friendly that Adobe. It easier to insert transitions and manage the video segments - easy two step to delete a segment of video. Futhermore, I created a mp4 file with Adobe and then opened it with Camtasia. To my surprise the file that I then saved from Camtasia was more than half the size of the Adove original. And I did nothing to reduce the file size. Why is that? Adobe creates a slew of folder that are left behind clutering my computer. WHY? If you need scratch pad space, use the TEMP folder that is available in all computrers. And once you finish, delete the folders. Its called "simple house keeping". I see it as sloppy pro

When I open Premier Elements 14 it asks me to sign in.  However then the dialogue box tells me the browser/OS im using is incompatible. Im running Windows 10 64bit I downloaded Internet Explorer 11 as that is compatible, I also set it to my defualt. But the problem persists.  

I can load new video and audio and open old premier projects but nothing runs. The video and audio tracks are visible. I can also click along the timeline to different points but when I click the play button, nothing happens. I have also tried downloading and running premier again, but still no response. I have been making videos with premier without problems for almost 2 years. Please help. Thanks. Cliff

Elements 2021 Photo Editor is fine....but Video Editor will not load...any ideas?

Yesterdayday I purchased the program “Adobe Premiere elements 2022”. When I bring in an existing film the preview of the program is  unclear and only shows green and red colors, while the two colored images do not fall together. One way or another the basic colors are mixed up and when I export the film, these colors are still divided.Please help me in what to do.  

I have Adobe Premier Elements 2021 version. I am trying to download video from my Sony TRV14 Camcorder uisng the Cameras iLink DV output connection to the 1394A port on my LinksTek card in my PCIe slot in my Asus Z170A Motherboard. Device Manager sees bothe the added 1394A card, and, the Sony TRV17 Camera. I have bothe Legacy driver and the card Driver installed, and neither one works to allow me to input video to Adobe. NO eror messages either. Windows 10 and Adobe are not speaking to each other. Others on Utube have stated that the 1394A card does work with their video software, so why doesn't Adobe Premier Elements work? I have tried TWO different IEEE 1394A cards, a three Firewire cables, every Driver listed for windows 10 IEEE card and still no video capture. Frustration is too mild a word for how I feel right now, is there ANYONE out there that knows how to fix this? 

why am i always told no disc burners available

I am trying to create a .iso DVD file in Premiere Elements 2018, and it just creates a "VIDEO_TS" folder and an "OpenDVD" folderinstead. If I open that "VIDEO_TS" folder with VLC media player, it 100% acts properly as I click on scene selections, watch movie, etc. But I don't know what to do with this folder as far as making an actual DVD. I haven't done this stuff In a few years. I was hoping to get a regular .iso file so I could use that to create my DVD from it. But I have no idea what I am supposed to do with this folder. When exporting, I even have .iso selected as my output type, yet I still get this unusable folder instead. Any ideas?

Picture quality issue importing analog videos I am using the Basetech USB 2.0 Video-grabber BR116 to import my 25 y old Hi8 Videos into Premiere Elements 2022 (appers as "webcam or WDM device"). My still going strong Hi8 camera has made analog videos with 25 fps. The resulting imported AVI videos have only 20 fps: this results in 1 frozen frame out of 5, greatly impairing the movie quality. How can I setup PrEl 2022 to import those videos correctly with 25 fps? With the included software (honestech VHS to DVD 3.0) I get PAL standard .mpg files (720 x 576) with 25 fps; that means it's not a problem of the video grabber. I can import the MPG files in PrEl 2022; however, that software has some bugs that make working more difficult.   Moved into a new thread: different issue [mod]

Hallo zusammen. Ich versuche ein MP3 File zu exportieren, aber die dauer des Exports ist extrem lang. Für 5,2 MB mus ich mindestens 3 Minuten warten. Ich hatte das Media Plugin File runtergeladen und installiert, damit Windows 11 die Media Files verwallten kann, aber es bringt nichts. Ist das normal, oder muss ich noch ein Plugin runterladen ? Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen dsas es wirklich so lange dauert.

I recently installed Premiere Elements 2022. On the initial install, the colors were not displaying correctly on my imported media. After reading a similiar community post, I updated and installed a new GPU driver. This fixed the problem at the time. I was able to import, edit, and export normally. I go back into the program today, and the same problem comes back. I searched for updates on the GPU, and my driver was up-to-date. I restarted the computer, and still no fix. IOS Windows 10 21H1GPU Intel UHD Graphics 620Video shot on iphone 

Changed the 1080p25.sqpreset DSLR file to 1920p25.sqpreset with wordpad to handle 9:16 video with Adobe Premiere Elements 2018 and then added a folder under the 1920p DSLR with the new file. The program does not see it. Can anything be done?

I have just updated my Windows 10 system successfully, but now Premiere Elements won't allow me to sign in. I have also noticed other irregularities since updating Windows 10. Any suggestions on what to do to fix this problem? I have read other posts where the same problem seems to exist, but I have not gotten a sufficient or understandable explanation of what is causing this problem, or how to fix it.

FYII use PE13 on a Win10 box with the HEVC codec installed. Of course, any HEVC video will come into PE13 as audio only (can be converted in Handbrake). I bought PE21 but I need to make blurays so I reverted to PE13. I have used a gopro 8 with the video compression set to H.264 + HEVC successfully in PE13. The gopro 8 will output H.264 on 1080 30, 1080 60, 2.7K 60, 4K 30 and 4K 60. I just bought a gopro 10 and set the compression to H.264 + HEVC and found that this gopro version will still only output HEVC only when set to 1080 24 and 1080 30 and 4K 60 but will output H.264 when set to 1080 60 and 4K 30. There is no warning that this will happen even when the video compression setting is H.264 + HEVC. I contacted gopro to inform them of this deficiency but I won't be holding my breath for their fix.

I have premiere elements 2022. It keeps freezing on me as I edit videos. I only have 12gb of ram. Could this be my problem?

I used Export & Share > Device > Computer to export my video (MP4) (single images & wav files). Images look great, but NO audio can be heard. In Premier, sound is fine. I don't know what to check. Windows 11. Premier Elements 2021, version 19.0.  

I have a project under construction in Premeiere Elements 2022. I have been working this project for two weeks and I have other projects I am working on in the program.But the one I am trying to complete will not open up and it then locks up and the only way out is task manager. This has occured only in the past three days. Up until then, the project opened just fine. I have added no content expect for the content added at the start of the project. I have only been editing clips and adding transitions between clips since then. Two strange things going on. 1.) The project has opened randomly only after numerous attempts.2.) The three other projects I am working open just fine.Any advice? Thanks! 

All images in correct date/time orderI do not automatically get the various images, videos and photos in the correct date/time order.When my partner and I travel we take images with a camera, video and photo, and phone, also video and photo, that goes for both of us. (Naturally, we immediately set all equipment on the correct date and time in advance).So we have various videos and photos with various extensions. We make a film from a selection of this material in Premiere Elements. This program offers the possibility to select the material by date (and time) at the touch of a 'button'. However, when I import the images afterwards, it turns out that a lot is not in the right order! Not even with stills and videos from the same camera!So the question is, how do I easily get the various images with different extensions in the correct date/time order in Première Elements?! Thank you very much in advance for response!

I had been prompted to install an update on both Photoshop and Premier Elements (2021 Suite) to 2021.4. However, when I try to instal (either "now" or "Install at exit"), two windows pops up stating: 1) "couldn't start update manager. Retry after some time" and 2) "Choose an application to open the document URL..."I am using a 2018 MacBook Pro and running Big Sur v.11.6.2. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Mike

Hi, I'm struggling to find the right settings for my videos, can anyone help please? The original videos are pretty clear/crisp and good quality, but whenever I export the edited video the quality is dramatically reduced, so I assume I have the wrong settings either at set up, or export, or both. But I can't for the life of me figure out what they should be! The finished videos are to be uploaded to YouTube, and I'd like them to be the highest quality possible. I'm using 2 types of video -1) Filmed on my iPhone 12, which I think is MPEG Movie type, at 1920 x 1080, frame rate 29.992) Filmed on Quick Time, MPEG Movie type, at 1920 x 1080, frame rate 29.79 My project settings are currently - Editing mode - DSLRTimebase - 29.97Frame size - 1920 x 1080I'm using Premiere Elements 2021. And I'm using the 'Computer/HD1080' preset for export, which gives 1920 x 1080, format MP4 - H.264 and bitrate of 32mbps. Any ideas what I should be changing these to so that

I am trying to add gifs to my video as an overlay type of thing; I have done it multiple times in the past but all of a sudden it just says "Add Media Failure. This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed." Some of my gifs have work and others don't, but they are all .gif files. Thank you for any help.

I'm using Premiere Elements 15 with Windows 10 and reading about using keyframes with applied effects. According to what I'm reading, when you click on the stopwatch at the top of the effect's window, it should display a timeline. The keyframing works as expected but the timeline display is not there, nor are the three controls for adding a new keyframe or jumpting to previous or next keyframes . Is there some setting to turn it on and off? Thanks.
