It's a well-known bug -- one of countless many in 2018.  adobe admits it -- so anyone that tells you differently doesn't know better.  They sold the whole 2018 program around a feature that would mimic an Avid in "Sharing bins"  -- also doesn't work.They don't give a — about professional editors - they figure enough people will buy it anyways - that's why they haven't fixed ANY of the bugs yet.  AAF bug?  nope.   Many hotkey functions disabled now?  yep still a problem.  Adobe could give two —.  Moderator note: Please. No profanity is allowed. Have some courtesy here, we have minors reading these forums.

RANT WARNINGIn the absence of an Acrobat Forum of any worth...I post here where there is at least a semblance of a pulse..How does one stop Windows bloody 10 from constantly and regularly  associating pdfs with Windows bloody Edge?I just want the .pdf association to stay with Acrobat DC (from my Cloud Subscription) but every Windows bloody 10 update changes it to Edge.Must have changed this about 10 times now at least.Does anyone even use Edge for anything!

I've been using Premiere since 1991 so I do have a history with the product.But I've not used it exclusively.  Avid, Media100, FinalCut, and Resolve has all been part of my career.And, yes, I'd certainly be interested in a highly specific and optimized premiere "PROFESSIONAL WORKSTATION" version.  Charge me $2K for it and call it a day.  Make a non-bloated version that demands an exact itemized list of PC hardware components.Heck, partner with HP and sell 1 single machine if you have to! --Also have software updates that are never released half-baked.Have it be so ridiculously exclusive it's built on their own tightly controlled version of LINUX.  Whatever works!  Just strip the code down.  Hit the reset button and make a solid lean and mean beast of an editing platform.Personally, I like the PP user interface and how it does things.  The legacy of that style of editing appeals to me.   However, I'm not enamored that the app always feels lik

Found a great solution to this finally. DaVinci Resolve. No hate, but it seriously does what professionals need it to. PP seems way more consumer and unstable in comparison. Flame away - just putting it out there.

BTWI am absolutely convinced that Adobe created crap with this release. They have done ggod work all the time. But v 13.0 is their Halloween release.

Do yourself a favour and learn Davinci Resolve. I have a Mac Pro 2013 6-core with 32gb of RAM and Dual D300's. I got some ProRes Footage in Premiere Pro and Davinci. Same LUT, same footage, same export settings. Premiere Pro - 12mins. Davinci - 3.5mins.The issue is Adobe has awful coding and as long as people keep paying their prices, they won't ever change it. Vote with your wallet. Once you learn Davinci you'll realise it does the exact same thing, better and for free. It is really a no brainer.A friend of mine used to work for the BBC and said they use Davinci, they trialled Premiere but the performance was so awful they dropped it in  a matter of weeks. That should tell you enough.Adobe - enough of this "try this, trash your prefs". Just accept that the fact your code needs trashing. You are slow to update your software. It is not optimised at all and it runs like an old donkey. CC 2018 is exactly the same...woeful.Ps. I am not actually an Adobe hater as my post would seem. I

"Adobe's priorities are so detached from functional requirements of working editors that the word "pro" should be removed from the product name."As a professional editor for going on 20 years now, I've seen some ups and downs and changes in the technology, but I cannot fathom how adobe continues to advertise premiere as a professional grade product. It simply is not. I have not met another editor who believes that this program even approaches the avid mc's of 10 years ago with regard to just making basic edits without crashing.

Heads up:Apple is distributing letters to owner of Final Cut Studio that those apps will not run in High Sierra, which is to be released this fall -More info here: About Apple Pro Apps and macOS High Sierra - Apple SupportWhile Final Cut Studio apps (FCP-7, Color, etc.) have been officially not supported since the introduction of FCP-X, most FCS apps (with the exception of Compressor 3.x and below) ran in some form right up to OS Sierra.This means, if you choose to upgrade your OS to High Sierra you will either need to:1) Give up functionality of all FCS appsor2) Create a dual boot computer so you can boot to an older OS to run the legacy FCS apps. This may not be viable if you upgrade hardware, as older OS's may not support any new hardware that Apple introduces, so you may not be able to dual boot to an older OS on a new machine.or3) Bunker a workstation with an older OS and move on to new hardware to run OS High SierraMtD

The software is far from finished I myself run it on 1070 ti, i7 3770k, 32 gb ddr4.Some of my peers run it on the new macpro and imac pro and similar pro workstations.Most terrible performance for the hardware it is running on. This application is so terribly written that it makes it impossible to edit in 4K (even with proxies/ingest) as of late 2018. Where amateur tools like final cut pro show no difficulties whatsoever, very, very disappointing fact.As of latest update the app has been showing more bugs than ever in history, I already use adobe software sinds quarkxpress was a competitor of indesign. So you can just take my word for it, I know how adobe software is supposed to perform.My conclusion:If you are a new user and your reading this, consider final cut proconsider affinity designer software, boycot the adobe software, because they are not working on the bugs they should be working on.I lost thousands of euro's due to corrupted projects in adobe, lost 100's hours of lost work

In the meantime, for all of us frustrated by the slow batching of proxy media in Premiere/AME... Davinci Resolve is excellently fast at batching media reliably. Then it can be reconnected after the fact in Premiere.But since you're importing clips into a fully featured (free) editor like Resolve anyway, maybe you just finish the project in that software while you're at it. Just thought I'd offer advice seeing as how I've been out of commission for 30 minutes "creating proxy jobs" for 20 RED clips.

Adobe,  you just enjoy — people out of money and sticking us with — software while claiming to be leaders in content creation. I have never see a product CRASH and bug out so much as the lineup of software you provide.AND PLEASE give me your stock-standard copy n' paste bs reply.Moderator Warning: Do not use profanity in these forums, it is against our community guidelines.

You're discontinuing Adobe Story for a few reasons, one of which is because not too many people used it. Please realize that people don't want to place their screenplay(s) on the internet when NOTHING is 100% secure online. A lot of people need screenplay software that would allow easy, automatic placements of camera shots, lighting, notes and so on, but will not risk having their work online when people have the ability to hack servers.Imagine the screenplay to The Avengers: Infinity War, a movie that made over $2 billion, was stored in Adobe Story, and then someone hacks Adobe and posts the screenplay online for everybody to read before filming even began. Screenplay software ALWAYS has to be confined to people's personal computers, it's a no-brainer.Thanks,JL

hi this is sai i want to buy a editing software for youtube videos i did know which is better can you please suggist me make me simple

I have tried through Adobe Edinburgh to get someone from Adobe Story to view this thread. I do have many connections on LinkedIn to most of the Adobe Global Team. Will try messaging them. Could those you have contributed her (not my thread but started by "Glasutin") to try and encourage as many in their work or social circles as possible to contribute. Its not until you go looking at the alternatives that you learn how good Adobe Story is, and the includes the new FD. Its collaboration tool appears very cumbersome. Adobe will listen if enough people are motivated to speak out. Shantanu Narayen has said as much at each conference. So can we start all spreading the word further? Thanks

Yeah after the update to resolve 15 I am spending more and more time learning the program. We shoot a compressed Raw on the Blackmagic Ursa mini pro that can't be read in Premiere so I have to say after 19 & 1/2 years using Premiere we might be looking to slowly switch our entire editing team away from Adobe based on this, the lack of Metadata support, and the super buggy April update of Premiere. I mean I am sure Adobe doesn't care about us and our 5 CC subscriptions enough to bring back Adobe Story but for the first time in almost 20 years I am seeing an actual viable alternative for our Mixed OS environment.

All Adobe software is now too expensive, The creative suite is ludicrously overpriced. I am looking at all the alternatives, Adobe don't have a monopoly on good products. They have treated customers shabbily.

Agree 100%.  Well, except switching to FCP.  I'll be 100% honest.  I STILL prefer to cut in media composer, PPro is still the most robust software package for most of today's edit needs.  It's not the best.  But it's the one that meets the most needs of the most kinds of productions, and unless a workflow never changes from project to project, I have to concede it's the best option.  But, realistically, Adobe should not get complacent here.  Adobe is the industry standard across a bunch of industries and swaths of industry, but that doesn't mean they're the favorite.  I've been using Adobe products since 1995, and they've usually served me well.  I also used Media Composer for a good 10 years and prefer its intuitive workflow for editing.  And I used FCP, not because I wanted to, but because some post houses are FCP houses.  At this point, while I have preferences, those don't drive my decision in software use.  It's all logis

Surprised this has not ben picked up in the PR forums, or did I miss it? Saw a post on a non-Adobe site, but see now that this blog entry was posted in August:Adobe Video and Audio Apps: Upcoming Changes to OS Support | Adobe Blog

Hi,I'm using Adobe Premiere 12.1.2 for a project which requires video capture. Adobe Premiere creates .mov files when using the video capture feature. Upon finishing the video capture, I am prompted to name the file and a .mov file is created. As far as I can tell there is no way to choose a different file format. For shorter files, everything plays fine. For longer files (approx 120 minutes or so), it imports audio only. No video. I've found a workaround by installing an older version (12.0.1) but I am prompted with this message upon launch:"32-bit QuickTime support endingSupport for import/export of legacy 32-bit QuickTime media will be discontinued in a future version of Premiere Pro. Transcode to a non-legacy format to continue using the media in Premiere Pro after legacy support has ended."I'm all for moving on if you don't want to support QuickTime, but why does Adobe Premiere create these files during video capture without leaving an option to create a more compatible file forma

Adobe has got to go, they cannot keep up with the times... too busy making new programs that no one asked for. Funny how Premiere alleges to be able to edit anything, until it can't... then the community professionals come out with the cult of hidden knowledge of what codecs and containers actually work with Premiere, then when you try those it still doesn't work.Have you tried DaVinci Resolve?It... what's the word I'm looking for...ah yes, it WORKS!

What are some good Premiere Pro Alternatives since Premiere has turned into total garbage?I'm a very angry user who's been trying to get this damn program to stop crashing for what seems like months now ... I'm fed up!

THANK YOU ALL FOR POSTING...I've been saying all this on here for weeks, Adobe loves to sweep it under the rug.One ACP told me it's normal for software to update and then not work as well as it used to on the same thing because it the software improved... which doesn't make sense in any way shape or form.Adobe doesn't test it's products and doesn't care because it has our money...I recommend taking these issues to the BBB :Adobe Systems, Inc. | Better Business Bureau® Profile

This is probably one stupidest advise I ever heard.
