Flickering problem when using the "Lighting" adjustment

If I have two video clips playing at once, i.e. a split screen or an overlay for example, everything is fine. If I use the "Lighting" adjustment on the clip playing in the Video1 channel then also everything is fine. If I then make a "Lighting" adjustment to the clip in Video2 then the problem occurs . The clip in Video2 will flicker this adjustment on and off quickly.

I've updated my video drivers to the latest version and also tried with Video Hardware Acceleration off to no avail. This problem occurs during normal playback i.e live playback and on a export.

All video was shot at 25fps on a Canon 5D mk2 at 1080p.

Project settings:

Editing mode: DSLR
Frame size 1920 x 1080
Pixel aspect ratio: square
Fields: No fields (progressive scan)
Display format: 25 fps

Version 14.1

Please help!

There can be a difference between what you see in the preview screen and what you get at output.

When you add adjustments, effects, split screens, etc. the computer has to work extra hard to render a "real time" preview. Depending on the strength and power of your computer, the preview may be less than perfect. When you Export and Share, the computer will take a lot more time to render a better version.

Can you Export and Share the section you are working on? Set the Work Area Bars and check the Work Area Bars only in Export and Share.

Good luck with your project!

That might happen with Premiere Pro CC, but not Premiere Elements. Marketing and development are done by different teams, in different places, with different goals and different targets. As a low cost consumer product, Premiere Elements is revised once a year, usually in September or October. Unlike Premiere Pro, and the other CC programs, there is no direct link (or forum) to provide bug or wish list feedback.

As a matter of fact, there is a Premiere Elements forum in the feedback forum:

Adobe Premiere Elements | Photoshop Family Customer Community

Unfortunately, it's not listed in the main applications list and goes unnoticed... and questions rarely get answers.

When you open the main feedback forum link:

Photoshop Family Customer Community

you have to locate the small 'view all >>' link squeezed on the right between the Categories and the Most helpful members.

Not very realistic.
