Light Flicker in PE but not in imported media

I am editing some concert footage for our community band. The footage I have straight off the card shows zero light flicker in QuickTime Player. Once I import the clip into PE and into the timeline, now the clip has a lot of flicker happening. I did apply the anti-flicker tool that comes with the app, but it had zero impact on the exported video. Any suggestions or solutions? Thank you!

Can you post a sample of this video to a site like YouTube and post a link to it here so we can see it? Flickering could be caused by a couple of issues.

Also, please open your source video in the free download MediaInfo. In MediaInfo, set View to Text and then copy the text of this report and post it here. With this information we'll be better able to help you.

And be sure to tell us which version of the program you're using on what operating system. It sounds like you may be editing MOVs -- which may challenge certain versions of the program.

Steve, more than 2 weeks ago you reached out. I appreciate this very much. I've been challenged by the timing of this issue. Yes, I did find a work-around. I also had my computer crash and I've been dealing with that. New drives are installed and working, and now my display needs to be replaced. Anyway, I want to follow up with the info you requested, just so we can finish this discussion and perhaps I can understand what's go on.

The pic shows just what the project looks like. I have 2 video clips stacked. I had tried dropping the opacity on the bottom clip where the top clip is stacked. But the light flicker was persistent. My work around was to simply cut the section in Video 1 out, and shift the Video 2 clip down into that section in the Video 1 timeline. The flicker disappeared. But I have stacked other clips this way before and haven't had the flickering artifact show up.

The 2 links above are the MediaInfo details from both videos.

Adobe Premiere Elements 2021 (Version 19.0) running on iMac with OS Catalina (Version 10.15.7)

The link is for the entire song. Please, don't judge my color grading! This was done as a sample just for this discussion. Down & dirty. The flickering is seen in the stage right recording.

Thank you for taking the time to see what I've got and what's going on. I appreciate your time and consideration!

I always have to convert my files before importing them to Elements as I've had the same issues. I purchased Movavi. I had the same issue when I used to use Premiere Pro, could never figure out why. I think the Codecs didn't match up. It is worth the investment (I think it was around $40?). Try the trial and see if it works for you.

On the timeline in real time editing you are seeing a compressed preview. Output all or part of it as a test. If the project settings, source footage and output settings all match, you probably won't see that flicker.

Thank you whsprague. I will confirm those settings after work today. The footage was already output which is where I see the flickering, and it is aggressive. The tips for cancelling flickering as in Premiere Pro cannot work here because of the motion of the musicians. So I'm hoping that my settings are the issue, as you have suggested.
