Question

Video and transition distortion and glitching

I'm having a problem with Premiere Elements. My videos keep glitching, and I can't seem to figure out how to fix it. For example, on playback, the frame rate drops a lot, and flashes in different colors of green or purple. The transitions also don't work. The cross dissolve just flashes rapidly between black and the actual video instead of fading. I have noticed that it rendering the video caused some of these problems, and I have also been using higher quality video footage. Premiere is basically unusable like this and I would appreciate it if someone could help, as I can't work on my videos anymore. Thank you. Here is a screenshot of one of the glitches. (its just supposed to be a regular video of a lake.)

louiseg1683637,

 

You've tagged on to an old topic.  

 

Need a little more information.  The graphics driver, operating system and video editing software have to have a match.   How did you update?  What did you update to?  What is your Premiere Elements version?  What is your operating system?

You will assist the good folks who will try to help you if you state basic things like what version of Premier Elements is involved and whether on a Mac or MS-Windows system.

Also tell us your processor and graphics card. And tell us what device recorded your video.

Hi, sorry for the late reply.  I think I'm just using the most updated version of Premiere Elements, (Adobe Premiere ELements 2020), I filmed this on an Iphone SE, I'm using a MS-Windows system, Its an Intel (R) Core (TM) i5-7400 cpu @ 3.00GHz processor, and the graphics card is an Intel(R) HD graphics 630

I updated my Driver, and that seemed to get rid of the color distortion, but my transitions still don't seem to work . On the cross disolves, it still rapidly flashes in between black and random sections from the clips instead of the normal cross disolve. 

Thank you for the help!
