Question

Can’t edit videos anymore in Lightroom because editing tools are not loading

Hi.

 

Whenever I open any video file on Lightroom Mobile app, all the editing options become unavailable. Which is very weird because earlier today I was still able to edit the same videos. They're mp4 format, and the ordinary iphone format - whatever that is. Did I do something wrong? I don't have the issue with photos - all edit options are available there. It's very weird. Hope someone can help.

 

Thanks.

    Greetings,

     

    Updates to the Adobe Photography Products were released on June 13. This feature request is now implemented. Thanks to all who participated in the is thread. 

     

    If you do not see the update (Mac and Win) you can refresh your Creative Cloud App with the keyboard shortcut [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[ R ].

    sorry if this is annoying, but i just wanted to clarify, video editing is only supported in mac and windows, not chrome, right?

    Did you read the earlier messages? Video editing is not supported in Lightroom mobile.

    Hi there,

    Welcome to the Adobe Community!

    Did you try working on an already imported video or Did you import a new video into Lightroom?

    Try waiting for some time to let the video load and then see if you're able to edit it.

    What version of Lightroom and the operating system are you working on?

    Regards,
    Sahil

    Thanks for the quick reply!

     

    I imported new videos (from my iPhone's video/photo library) to Lightroom Mobile (iOS 13.1.2 and Lightroom Mobile version 5.1.0)

    I took your advice and let the video load for 15 minutes but nothing happened.. The edit functions are all a darker grey color instead of white, the buttons are not responsive. When I click on the cloud button in the upper right corner it says: Local: video - non editable,

     

    Also, I have another problem. I deleted and reinstalled the app again, hoping that would help, but now I lost all my downloaded presets. Is there any way I can get those back? Installing them manually takes up quite a lot of time...

     

    Thanks!!

    Videos are not editable within Lr Mobile, therefore you will see the edit controls disabled. - Guido/ Lr Mobile QE
