4 Questions on New Project Settings with Pemiere Elements 9 - & Fix Quality Problems.

When I started my new project I selected PAL, DSLR - 1920 x 1080p - 24 fps.
Once in New Project, I dragged the movie onto the Timeline, then up poped a box saying something like "Fix Quality Problems", whch I accepted.
Q1 Which is the best frame rate to record in, to subsequently bring media into Premiere Elements 9?
I am in The UK so we have PAL and therefore, I could use 24p or 25p - 25 p is 25 fps, and 24p is 23.976 fps. per the Canon manual. [NB the Canon will not record at 50 or 60p in PAL]
Q2, I read somewhere that some Video Editors can not accept a movie file in its native format , and thus change it to a different format and then edit it, and then export and convert it back - often with a serious loss of quality. I would like to maximise the quality.
Q2i] Does Premiere Elements 9 do this converstion? If so does it harm the quality significantly - are there ways to avoid this?
Q2ii] and if so, is there a recording format best suited for me to record in, and subsequently import my videos into Premiere Elements 9? eg would it be better to record in 25 fps?
Q2iii] There was also a screen somewhere about this section like 2,2,3,2,2 I think its something to do with pulldown? What is the best setting for the highest quality?
Background info:-
I shot my videos with my new Canon DSLR 5D MkIII; I set the movie quality to:-
PAL, 1920 x 1080p ALL-I (this was the highest quality the 5DIII can record at, there was an "IPB" option for lower quality). And I selected 24 fps - which the manual says is actually 23.976 fps
The manual also says it is a MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 [movie recording compression] Recording Format = MOV
But strangely it loads onto my laptop as a "Quick Time Movie". I was expecting to see a .MOV file. [whether this is because this Sony Laptop comes with 'PMB Organiser' and view software. Or the hated iTunes changed how things are imported, I just don't understand any of this stuff . All I do know is iTunes repeatedly tried to change my default viewer. So did it change the format, which files are imported in?? [re loading the files from my cameras CF card into my laptop]
Any advice much appreciated
Peter

Peter,
The way out of the project is encoding. And recoding tends to degradation of the export in varying degrees for different formats. Typically DV AVI undergoes less change with reencoding than the rest. But, we are not dealing with DV AVI here. Your source appears to be
AVCHD (MPEG4 AVC/H.264) video compression
1920 x 1080 16:9 @ 24 progressive frames per second
Rather than export the Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 Timeline to a .mov file or something else and then importing that into Premiere Elements 11 for is AVCHD export, please consider trying to open the Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project in Premiere Elements 11 and then proceed there to export Publish+Share/Compute/AVCHD with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080 p24.
Keep in mind that if you take a project created in Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and edit it in Premiere Elements 11 and then decide to further edit it in Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1, cannot do. And, if some unexpected perk allows the opening of the Premiere Elements 11 edited version, there will be problems. Unless there is a special reason, best complete a project in the version that created and create anew in the newer version.
A just in case note, the original on the hard drive is not altered. Premiere Elements traces back to the original from the Project Assets thumbnail (copy of original).
But, you should make the comparsion between your H.264.mov opportunity in version 9.0/9.0.1 and your AVCHD.mp4 opportunity in Premiere Elements 11. I believe that you said that is your intention.
For your Premiere Elements 11 tryout download, check out another browser. I always had to go to Internet Explorer for that download. Firefox never was good for that. But with this version 11, Firefox did the job. I had better results saving the downloaded folder to Documents than I did to Desktop.
Please review and let us know if I have targeted your questions. If not, please detail what I overlooked.
Thanks.

I am planning on purchasing Premier Elements 13, would it be better if I bought a new program rather than download an upgrade, just in case the upgrade doesn't load properly due to the error with my existing program?
If I the deleted Premier Elements 9 on my PC would I lose all my existing videos that were produced using Premier Elements 9 or would they be saved so that they can still be worked on in Premier Elements 13?
Does Premier Elements 13 work with Windows 7?
Thanks
Terry

Premiere Elements 13 absolutely works with Windows 7!
In fact, I'd highly recommend you download the free trial and give it a test run.
Meantime, go to Windows Update and make sure you have all of the latest Windows updates, including those that don't install automatically. Then go to the nVidia or ATI site and ensure you have the latest driver for your graphics card, and go to Apple.com and ensure you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements.

Create new project files with uploaded word document

How do I create a new project file with an uploaded word document. I tried to follow the guidelines using the Robohelp PDF file but after I upload the word document, I cannot see it in the workspace. Are there other steps to bring the document into Robohelp 9. I am using the trial version and have never used Robohelp before.
Thank you!

I was finally able to fix my problem and I hope to publish this in as many pages as I can. First I had the exact same issue. My file was password protected (the one I used as a shell for a new project) spent two hours of work, went home and next
day “Nothing” same errors. Cannot open file etc. etc. So after two hours searching the net I found this company that has a
Project Repair Toolbox that is cloud based for FREE (no useless downloads).
I went in > It asked me for the file that I had on my local drive > prompted me for the password and > BAM! the file opened right up. Since it as viewer only I was able to at least begin re-typing the project plan which was small in nature.
Check it out, hope it works for you.

How to change the default new project folder in Premiere Elements 13?

I keep all my projects on a different drive than the default My Documents folder. How can I change the default setting so that Premiere Elements does not try to create new projects in the My Documents\Pemiere Elements\13.0 folder? In fact, I do not want that folder to be used for anything (including layouts and styles).

steveb
Short version....
Referring to the 13.0 Folder in the Adobe Folder in documents, you wrote
In fact, I do not want that folder to be used for anything (including layouts and styles).
I do not believe that is possible.
For my best case scenario
Set the Scratch disks, not to Same As Project, but set for Custom with the set being the save location that you set for the project file.
Set the project save in, my preference, File Menu/Save As.
You are going to end up automatically with a 13.0 Folder in the Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/13.0 Folder every time you open a Premiere Elements project. No matter how many times you try to delete the 13.0 Folder. And that 13.0 Folder will contain a Layout Folder and, if you applied a Style in the project, a Styles Folder.
Longer Version....
There is no problem directing your project file to the save location of choice. You can do that two way
1. After you open the project to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/Save As to change the name of the project as well as the location for the save in order to avoid the defaults.
2. You can also do that through File Menu/New/Project.
That 13.0 Folder also gains its contents from the settings of the scratch discs in Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disc - some examples preview files, disc encoding files, conformed audio files... Some Files/Folders are placed there automatically. So what to do to keep the Documents area clear of Premiere Elements files, project or otherwise after you have move all that you thought you could to a non Adobe default location? See above best case scenario.
Miscellaneous
1. If you set the save location of the project in either of the 2 ways, that setting will not hold from project to project. It will hold for that particular project.
3. If you set the Scratch disks in Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks, those settings seem to hold from project to project as well as for in the particular project.
Stevenb, please review and consider and verify. I have gone through several scenarios on what you would prefer. But, I do not see a way to make that happen with the programming that exists.

'serious error' when creating a new project in adobe premiere elements 10

Hello,
I saw similar questions on the forums but not quite what is happening with me.
First off I should say i've never had this working however the copy of premiere elements 7 we had worked perfectly fine. I am a technician in a school and i'm trying to install the software for the students (we have lots of lisences). The software appears to install perfectly fine and the launcher works. I click to create a new project (or open an old one) premiere appears to load up correctly. It only crashes once I click to browse for a location to save the file.
The error message says, as i've noticed seems to be a generic message for any error on premiere: "Sorry, A serious error has occured that has caused Adobe Premiere Elements to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project"
At first I thought this was student user rights (as students do not have access to C:\) however I have since tried it with my own admin account which has full rights and effectively should be able to do anything and it still continues to crash.
The stations I am working with are:
Operating System
MS Windows XP Professional 32-bit SP3
CPU
Intel Pentium E5200 @ 2.50GHz
Wolfdale 45nm Technology
RAM
2.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR2 @ 400MHz (6-6-6-18)

Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide some insight on this matter

How do you change project settings on Premiere Elements 12?

I have Premiere Elements 12. When I view a DVD I created of wedding photos, the edges of people and objects are jagged and generally the photos appear blurry. On my old Premiere Elements 8, I did not have this problem - the pictures on DVDs were clear and sharp. When checking the project setting on Premiere 8, the project settings for Capture was DV which changed all my settings for General and Rendering project settings. On my new Premiere 12, the Capture setting is HDV and I cannot get the General and Rendering settings to change when I change the Capture setting to DV. The online help from Adobe says to correct this, "In the New Project dialog box, click Change Settings," but when I start a new project in Premiere 12, "Adobe Premiere Element Editor" is the only dialogue box that shows and I cannot see a change setting button. Does anyone know how I can change my project settings so that when I select DV it will change all the presets for the General and Video Rendering settings?

jacquelinebaker
The party line is that you cannot change project settings once the project settings have been set. You need to start a new project.
Edit Menu/Project Settings/General does not offer the opportunity for any significant project settings change in this type of situation.
I have discovered that, under certain circumstances, that the user can change the established project preset without starting a new project.
The approach to doing this involves editing the Notepad document of the saved closed project file (project.prel file). I have written about this in the following blog post.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/05/pe11-changing-project-settings-without.html
You need to weigh the pros and cons of going through the procedure or just starting a new project and start the project again.
All of the above being said, on to setting to the correct project preset to match the properties of your source media. Please refer to the issues involved and how to set manually the project preset when the program is not doing the job correctly or best automatically.

To the specifics...if you are doing DV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 12 Capture Window, the scenario would be...
a. Open Premiere Elements 12 to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings. In Change Settings,
change the project preset to NTSC DV Standard or NTSC DV Widescreen depending on NTSC or PAL set up and 4:3 or 16:9 DV data source. Then before you exit that area, make sure to place a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project" in
the new project dialog. Exit that area and return to the Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace for your Add Media/DV Capture selection.
If you are doing HDV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 12 Capture Window, then same scenario except the project preset change involves NTSC HDV HDV 1080i30 (if NTSC). In this instance, the Edit Menu/Project Settings/General should look like
Please review and consider and then let me know if I have targeted you question or need clarification.

How to make EVERY new project open with 48k SAMPLE RATE?

Is there a way to set 48k as my sample rate default setting for all new projects I create or do I have to set it manually on a per project basis?
Thanks!

Might as well save 5 or 6 screen sets with your custom template. That's going to save you a lot of time setting up new projects.
Yes, good call! Anything to make life easier. This is why I'm moving towards doing all my projects in 48k. Since it's the standard for working with video,I figure why not just move all my projects up to it so I don't ever have to think about it again

Can I return my new laptop to lenovo because of its quality problem?

IBM is one of the best brand as I know, especially showing us not only high quality of products but the service.
But now one thing happened to me, if I don't have this case I can't believe. I found there is something with the laptop(T61 Model 7658CTO) the same day when I got the new laptop on June 3rd, 2008. Then I call 800, a lot of 800 calls,at last I were told that I should contact send it back first if I were to get another new one. Three days later I got the box sent by Lenovo, and I return it back in terms of what the paper shown.
Unfortunately the problems of the laptop still exist when I turn on my laptop after it repaired. What's wrong with my laptop, this is new one, I think IBM should provide high quality products.
I don't know how to describe the weird sound , it sounds like two or more micphone opened clost to each other. It is very harsh.
I want to get one new laptop from Lenovo because of the quality of product and customer service or can I return the laptop?
I would appreciate any advice you can give me.

Like Obama says... yes you can
I did it last week because I bought an iPhone 4 as a wedding gift but then I changed my mind and wanted an iPad, so the bride could use it together with the groom (while the phone is personal).
I returned the iPhone to the apple store and I paid the difference to buy the 32GB iPad, no problems
I didn't opened the case, but the guy at the apple store told me I could have returned the phone even if it was opened. It must be undamaged tough.

Why can't mozilla work with yahoo to fix the problem of blank e mails?

Ok the only way i could read my messages in yahoo was to remove completely fire fox 8.0.1. and re-download fire fox 3.6.22, before i change back to 8 or higher, you need to work with yahoo mail, and others to fix the problem or it will happen again. sorry but your educated guesses about my current browser will not work until you fix he problem, because you want me to up date my browser, and that is my problem. you shouldn't make any guesses until you fully know what is going on.

OK I read the link you posted and I tried changing dom.ipc.plugins.enabled;true and dom.ipc.plugins.java.enabled;true to false, and back to true again. Nothing changed and I could not really understand the majority of the thread you posted, I am not a coder and I have no idea what any of that stuff even is.
I don't know how to "allow the plugin container process in the firewall" I googled it but all I find is more cryptic forum threads and I have no idea what any of it means.
Am I supposed to be looking at settings in my commodo program?
I am doing my best here, and trying to solve the issue, I really appreciate all your help. It is very frustrating because I am not familiar with browser settings and technical things relating to plugin containers and out of process plugins.
Thanks again for all your help, but nothing seems to be working.

Firefox is not allowing me to add new tabs. I'm pushing the plus sign next to my tab, and it is no longer adding new tabs. How do I fix this problem?

When I open Firefox, I automatically have one tab. The plus sign button to add more tabs is next to the one tab, but it no longer adds tabs when I click on it. When I click on it, it doesn't do anything. How can I fix this problem so I can have multiple tabs? I downloaded the most current version of Firefox, and I'm still having the same problem. I've had this problem for a little over a week now.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Why can't I add an image to my new project in adobe premiere elements 11?

It keeps coming up with the same error no matter what image I try to add to my project. Error Message:"The importer reported a generic error."

Could you please supply information about the image itself...
a. video or still image?
b. what format...still image - jpg, psd, other; video, AVCHD.avi, MotionJPEG.avi; XviD.avi, other?
If you tell us the brand/model/settings for the camera that recorded the image, perhaps that information

New Project settings...possible solution for AVCHD poor performance

I have experience very poor performance when editing AVCHD content from my Canon camera. I was using the DV widescreen by mistake as the last format I used was a DV camera.
When I switched to AVCHD Full HD 1080i 30 the performance was greatly improved. But I actualy have my camera set for 1080p 30. It's a setting on the canon vixia HF S100. My options are 60i, 30p, or 24p. I prefer no interlacing so I can avoid de-interlace issues when posting content on computers (plus most TVs are progressive today and it's easier to go from p to i without impacting quality).
But which options is best for me? should I try and create my own custom setting? I noticed in the Hard Disk and Flash presets they have two settings (one says 60i but that is anamorphic). The HD 1080i 30 looks like the same settings Full HD 1080i 30.
Thanks in advance.

There is a little easier Way to Navigate in Doing an F.D.R. than that Method: I listed it here if you prefer going this Route..
