Question

no smooth preview

In my last edit I noticed that the preview was not running smoothly, it regularly stopped in different places, and I then had to press the play button again. that is not nice to work, the images are MTS (AVCHD)  from a Panasonic AG 90 camera. I have a desktop with i9 9900K processor and 16Gb RAM memory, where on my PC or in which setting of Elements 2023 should I find a solution to this problem?
Thank you,
RB

Is there a yellow, orange or green line along the top of your timeline? Try rendering your timeline by pressing the Enter key and see if it plays more smoothly when this line is green.

 

Also, click the \ key (above the Enter key) so you can see your entire movie on your timeline. Wait until every clip is populated with a thumbnail. When all the thumbnails are in, play the timeline.

 

Do either of these things make a difference?

Hello, There is a full green line above the time line and the video clips ate there full Loaded and in my case there is online 3 minutes on the time line, no music, no voice over and the preview stops several times in the 3minutes, Maybe there runs to much prog's on the back ground of my pc, i have an i9 9900k processor and 32 gb ram memory.

You did not have to remove Malware bytes.

Try this:

change extension from mts to mpg

and/or

convert file to mp4 with Shutter Encoder encoding|converting video FREE PC|Mac

 

preferences: audiohardware input > none

 

 



I removed malware bites because this is the only software I installed on my PC in quite some time, and looked for the cause there, it was a year ago that I did another edit (it has stopped) I use those mts files in premiere elements since version 15 when I still burned Blu-ray discs. That has always gone well (the montages in premiere elements then) I will look into converting the mts files to mpg, but what has changed in elements that it no longer works in version 2023 and now in the new 2024? It's yet another step, and while I edit less or no more, I don't consider that progress. I have now requested assistance from an IT specialist who will come to my home and who will perform a fresh Windows 10 installation, because as previously indicated, my processor is busy with I don't know what and in any case there is something wrong with that.
