[azzface]

What info do you want?

[Ann Bens]

What preset?

Were did you download it from (with a link).

[azzface]

The site http://www.kylerholland.com/tutorials   (if you scroll down you´l see the smooth transition) Its called KH Smooth Transitions.prfpset

And the final link http://www.mediafire.com/file/ajhnscvzgd8g2di/KH+Smooth+Transitions.prfpset

Dont know what you did but it works just fine.

Download again.

What did the file full name was for you, i had to replace .xml with .prfpset acourding to a comment.

I have already tried to download a different preset from the same site and that still didn't work, still came up "file not supported".

Did you just download and import it?

[Ann Bens]

What comment?

You dont have to change anything, it downloads as a .prfpset and import as such in Premiere.

Do you have File-extensions turned on in Windows Explorer.

Remember, it's a preset. You have to import to your Presets in the Effects panel. Just right click on Presets and click on Import Presets...

I had the same problem, and you are right. Doing your way works perfect.

Thanks.

Thanks for this tip. I think I have imported the preset but when I drag it to the timeline, there is a crossed out hand and I'm unable to apply it. Any advice on this part of the problem?

Ahhhrg, found the solution! Adobe user interface unfriendliness at its best 😉

1. Top Menu bar click "Graphics"

2. Click "Install Motion Graphics Template"

3. You'll find them with the same name in the / root folder of Essential Graphics

Hope this works for you guys too?
