Correct answer steveg0705

After working with a great customer support rep we narrowed the issues down to videos that were created with my phone, a Pixel 3 XL, which was a great start.

Looking at the error generated and subsequent one it looked like a memory issue. I ran a mem test, but it came back clean, so next I went into my bios and changed the setting on my CPU from performance to standard which, has a direct effect on memory timings. I can now edit the videos from my phone.

Thanks for posting the success story. Was it an Adobe support rep? What exactly lead to the BIOS solution?

Yes, it was an Adobe rep, Anthony Jones, he was awesome and very patient. He helped me isolate the videos that were causing me problems.

The bios thing was my guess based on the memory error. I am not a computer guy at all, I got lucky.

Steve,

Thanks. As you may guess, being a regular here is a fun retirement hobby for me. I frequently refer people to Adobe Customer Support when machines are balled up and not working. I rarely get feedback. In years of using Premiere Elements since version 9, I've never had any trouble so have not needed to try customer support. It's nice to know it works.

I don't know enough to answer based on an event log. Programmers might be able to do that. You might want to try an online "chat" with customer support. Contact Customer Care

If you want to try for help here, what is the source of the video? How much memory and free disk space do you have? What is the computer configuration?
