Adobe Premiere Elements 3 Playback Issues HELP

So every time i playback, export, or render this video an error message shows up about 64% through. It makes me close the program! then you go to open it again and rename it but you try it again and it keeps doing it!
What can i do?

Also, how much free, defragmented space is left on your hard drive? And what video format are you using as your source files? If photos, are they sized to no larger than 1000x750 pixels in size, per our FAQs?

Adobe Premiere Elements 9 Freezing Issue

In Adobe Premiere Elements 9, every time I click, the program freezes for at least 30 seconds and sometimes closes. This happens every time I try to do anything and is very frustrating.

Hi Schaef,
I'll do my best to try to explain...
The problem that was causing my issue was that I had chosen the wrong Project Settings. I tried just playing around with them until the program sped up.
Here's how to do it:
When you first open Premiere 9 you will see the regular start-up window. When you click on 'New Project' you will wait a second then see this:
When you see this window, select the name and save destination, then click on 'Change Settings...'
Try playing around with the presets on the left. If possible, find the option that fits your video footage's particulars. If that's not available, find one that most closely fits them.
Once you've found a suitable option, try saving the settings and opening the new project. If you don't notice any difference, than you should start all over to find a different option. Repeat this until the program has significantly sped up (as it did for me).
If none of this helps, I apologize, my knowledge with the program is not very profound.
Let me know how you make out though!

Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Effects Problem - HELP

I use Adobe Premiere Elements 11, and when I use effects the footage ends up speeding up, repeating itself, and just not staying the same as it originally was. Does this have to do with what type of footage it is. I am using screen-captures that I got when using Bandicam. If anyone could help me with this problem, it would be greatly appriciated, thanks.

Gamerwalk,
One option would be to convert your odd AVI-MPEG file to DV-AVI, which is what PrE loves most. This FAQ Entry will give you some tips on doing that: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317?tstart=0
I use an older file conversion program, DigitalMedia Converter 2.7, but it is NOT freeware. Also, Deskshare, the publisher, has released newer versions.

Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Playback Stops

I'm using Adobe Premiere Elements 11 on a new HP workstation. I've created several projects without problems. I've recently had some lost media files and re-installed Premiere Elements. Now when I click play, it plays for a short time and then stops. I click again and it plays for a short time and stops again. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the replies.
Typically, I think about Scratch Disks as storage places to where the project automatically sends its files generated as part of one of its activities - thinking
preview files, conformed audio, autosaves, encoded files. An Adobe document describes them as per the following link.
Adobe Premiere Elements 11 * Working with scratch disks
You do not want your computer bogged down by pile ups of these files from project to project.
With your next projects, I would look at beforehand pointing all the Scratch Disks (Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks) to that E drive with the 1.8 TB space (assumed
most of it free).
With those clips with the .mod file extension, right click the file name, select Rename from the drop down list.
When you select Rename, typically the name part of the file, not the file extension, is highlighted for the type in.
file name.mod. In that case, with your mouse cursor, click between the . and the mod and drag the mouse curser
to the right over the mod. Then type mpeg or .mpg.
A good starting place to explore for best settings for your described source might be
Project Preset set manually to
NTSC
DV Standard
or you might want to experiment with
NTSC
FLIP
Flip Mino and Ultra 29_97p
Please check out the how to for manual setting of the project preset. That is found at bottom of the following link

Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Uploading Problem - HELP

I recorded some footage with Bandicam, then editted it, using a lot of clipping and cropping of the footage to give it a widescreen look. When I uploading it, I choose the setting of "High Definition Video for YouTube". When it finally uploaded, it looked out of wack. Footage was shrunk down and the cropping was off. When I re-uploaded it under the setting of "Flash Video for YouTube" it came out perfectly, just not in high quality. What setting should I use this time?

This is what has been showing up every time it try to use my premiere elements....I've gone into the prefrences and unclicked full duplex. but it still shows that. If i could get help that would be great! i'm making a movie for a class and its due may 5th so if i can get the help soon that be even better!! thanx!!!

After taking Paul's advice, you might want to go to Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager, and open it up. Go to Sound, video and game controllers (might be called something similar in Vista). Look for your Realtek High Definition Audio and Dbl-click on it. Open up and check everything there.Make sure you have no errors.
Next, go to Edit>Preferences>Audio Hardware and look at ASIO Settings. Check that your Realtek HD Audio output is checked for both Ports (Input & Output).
With Paul's suggestion, and making sure that the Realtek is selected, you *should* not get that error.
If you do, please post back.
I would also recommend Steve Grisetti's two books on Premiere Elements. The first is designated for PE2, but very much of it still applies to later versions. His new book is focused on PE7, but contains a lot of great info on video editing in general (as does the first book).
There is also a forum/site Muvipix, that is dedicated to helping people use aspects of video, audio and still. It also has a lot of great tutorials, plus a lot of Assets, like Menus, and stock footage. Much of that is free and available, and all is accessible with a subscription.

Premiere Elements 8 Playback Issues

Hey everyone,
I am trying to make a compilation of movie clips using Premiere Elements 8. When I add a movie, I crop it down to about a minute long and delete the rest. However, when I try to play back what I have, the video is very laggy and not synced with the audio, or there is often no audio whatsoever. These same videos work perfectly fine in Windows Movie maker. I tried clicking "Render Work Area", but that did nothing. Also, in the bottom right corner of the screen a bar keeps popping up that reads "conforming (name of video)". Any advice that you guys can offer will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Problems with Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0. HELP?

Hello!
I've been trying to edit a short film for weeks now but I have quite a few problems with Premiere Elements 4.0. To start with I have a Windows 7 Toshiba Satellite L750-16L with Intel Pentium.
The first and main problem is that I can't import AVCHD (.mts) and Quick Time (.MOV) footage. I have a K-Lite Codec Pack to let me import and export certain types of footage but it seems to not like the footage I want to import.
Another problem I have is that I can't export the project without the program crashing, and sometimes it just crashes or freezes randomly.
I've tried emptying The Cache and using diffrent project settings but with no success.
If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated as I'm stumped about where to go from here.
Thanks,
Jack.

Truemanz
True. AVCHD was not supported until Premiere Elements 7. Those with Premiere Elements 4 on Windows typically converted the AVCHD to another format so that they could use Premiere Elements 4 as the video editor, providing they had enough computer resources for the task. Yet, there were some who could use AVCHD with Premiere Elements 4.0, but they were the ones working from a Sony Vaio that offered a special plug-in for the AVCHD support and the same computer resources considerations.
Putting aside the AVCHD.mts.
What has not been mentioned yet is your report of not being able to work with what you describe a QuickTime (mov) footage. What are the properties of this footage...video and audio compressions, frame size, frame rate, progressive or interlaced, etc? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 4? And, is your Premiere Elements 4 set Run As Administrator and/or from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
Versions of Premiere Elements earlier than 10 are 32 bit applications which run into limitations of the 32 bit operating system. Computer resources and the demands on it from a large sized project may enter into the mix. But, let us clear up the QuickTime (mov) footage situation.
Thanks.

How to install content cd for Adobe Premiere Elements 10?

I am unable to install the content cd for Adobe Premiere Elements 10. Please help.

I removed the programs from my computer and reinstalled them. I installed
both Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premiere Elements 10 from disk
1. Then I installed all of the content folders from disk 4 (content).
When I open the Premiere Elements Program a dialogue box asked if I wanted
to add content, I checked yes and an internet site opened and I was able to
download the content.
There must have been something wrong with my original installation of the
program as this didn't happen before.

Video editing & playback issues: Adobe Premiere Elements 8

Hello all,
I have made several attempts at transfering HD video files from my camcorder to my PC and then editing.
When I try to play the transferred file, it is a little choppy and then gets worse as I edit it.
Here are my specs/config:
System:
HP Pavilion a6720y
Windows Vista 64 bit
NVIDIA GeForce GT 440
AMD Phenon 9550 Quad Core 2.2Ghz
6GB RAM
640GB SATA drive, 7200 rpm
Camera:
Sony HDR-XR150
Editing Software:
Adobe Premiere Elements 8
I copy the video files from the camcorder to the computer via USB 2.0.
When I connect the camera directly to the TV the video plays without any issues. So I know the AVCHD files are "good" and I suspect they are also possibly "good" on my hard drive, but just cannot be played or edited appropriately for some reason.
One input I received was that due to the nature of AVCHD files, I should convert the video to "I-frame codec" and then edit. Can Adobe Premiere Elements do this?
Any other thoughts/ideas?
Thanks for any help.

My 3 hard drives are configured as...
1 - 320Gig Boot for Win7 64bit Pro and all program installs
2 - 320Gig data for Win7 swap file and video project files
When I create a project on #2 drive, the various work files follow,
so my boot drive is not used for the media cache folder and files
3 - 1Terabyte data for all video files... input & output files (*)
(*) for 4 drives, drive 3 all source files & drive 4 all output files

http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US
Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing

Adobe Premiere Elements 0.9 project crash, HELP!

This is the first time I am using these forums, so I hope I posted this in the right sektions.
I need help and solutions for a Project which constantly crashes on my Adobe Premiere Elements 0.9. This program has been awesome and helped me create some projects and videos successfully, up until.... well for about 3 days ago when my latest project crashed when I had just antered and checking the storyboard etc, triggering a "Serious Error" message and then it shuts down. I try again and again, but everytime I try to put something (any sound or video etc) on the storyboard and start working etc the same damn "Serious Error" message and then allways shuts down. It's allways this same and only project (which has worked fine before) that crashes like this...
In an attempt to first solve the problem myself I went through the Premiere Elements 9 files and deleted finnished projects and automatic saved process on projects etc, but still won't work even better... The funny thing is that when I open another project (a finnished project I left saved just in case) and go through the storyboard there and messes around a little and such, it won't crash nor trigger the same message as my latest project. And that program even has some effects on every footageclip on it too, but still it works fine. Haven't touched the program or the program until and since yesterday night to give it some rest but it still won't work, the project just keeps crashing like when and since it first started a few days ago.
I have also read through and tried some things from this Help/Troubleshoot page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/kb/troubleshoot-damaged-projects-premiere-element s.html
I have so far been doing 1 and 2 of the "Beginning Troubleshooting", otherwise I have been reading it all and such. I am also kinda afraid to do the 3 of the first quests because I worked so hard on this project and even tough it just keeps crushing, I'm afraid to lose it. Other, I have deleted audios and such from my filegallery on my Adobe Premiere Eements, stuff I don't need anymore because its projects are already done. After I did that I also tried to create a new project just for testing. The amazing this about this is that this the new created project I created works just fine, I could do all kinds of the stuff, effects and advanced editing which I did on the same project before it started crushing. Tough I didn't save that test-project since I didn't find a reason to since it worked so good. And so the thing is that I can start and create a new project and start working and do usual stuff on it with no problem, same when I open up another project and do stuff, it all works just fine! It is just this one and only project that keeps crushing with this "Serious Error" message, all the time... Does anybody else have, or has had the same problem? What could the problem and error be and how to fix it?
This crushing project do has some effects on every footageclip/videoclip on it, to set the right mood for the musicvideo I'm making. I am making a musicvideo, and I haven't even done the half of the project/video. The song I am making this musicvideo with is about 00:07:32 in length, and (tough this detail may have no influence or meaning) the music is Symphonic Metal. The actual file of the song is 6,96 MB in size. This is also not the first time I've done such projects with such long songs on this same program either, one of my last videos I managed to successfully make and create a musicvideo with a song which was about 13 minutes and 30 seconds in length, and I also used effects on pretty much every videoclip on that project too.
The current filesize so far on the actual project.prel-file of my project that keeps crushing is 9.73 MB.
I am also using Adobe Premiere Elements and doing this troubleing, crashing project on a PC, a Fujitsu Windows (I believe Windows 7, or even updated to a newer version?). It has a regular ATI-card. The computer also has 2 modems and there's still some pretty GB amount free on them. The PC's main system also has a RAM in 6.00 GB and the operative system is the 64-bites.
In short, the PC should just fine be able to handle Adobe Premiere Elements 0.9 and all its projects, just as it has handled it all before plus all my PC games at that. So it must be something with my Adobe Premiere Elements and that specific project which is the problem, but what is the problem and the serious error and how to fix it?
Could it help to save and create the actual video in this crashing project, delete that project then start a new project, upload and put in the videofile of the crashing project in that new project and then continue from there?
In either cases, I need help with this. Please, help!

Thanks so much for your reply, Steve!
Even tough I trust you guys enough here on the official Adobe site/forums to answer those questions as best I can, I am at the same time not very fond of giving away too much information because of safety. I understand I have to If I'm to recieve the accurate answers and solution, but as this is the internet you can never know. But again, I trust you guys enough on here and thus I'll try to answer those questions as best I can, even tough I am not very good with such stuff about computers. The PC I am using is also not only mine, it is the family computer also which me and my whole family uses.
The operating system on my computer (according to the computer propotions etc) is a 64-bites operating system and the computer/PC is also a Windows 7 Home Premium.
The processor the computer/PC have is a Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU and the RAM is 6.00 GB. However, (and I hope I make this understandable because the computer/PC is in swedish)the subscore of RAM in the computer's Performance-Classification/Ranking is 7,5. The processor subscore is 7,3 per second. And the free space? Well, we have two modems, let's say a modem A and a modem B. Adobe Premiere Elements 0.9 is set to save all its stuff etc on modem B, while modem A is the main modem and spaces all main stuff and other things of the computer/PC. Modem A has about 314 GB of free space, while modem B has 207 GB of free space. Modem A's capacity is a total of 489 GB in which 175 GB has been used, the modems filesystem is a NTFS. Modem B is also a NTFS filesystem and its capacity is a total of 439 GB in which 232 GB has been used. And the Disk Cleanup? I believe my that latest ran it for about a few weeks ago. We also have a CCleaner also. But about the Disk Defragmenter, I have no idea. What exactly does a Disk Defragmenter do?
You mean, entering my project that keeps crushing and simply rename it by using "Save As"? If that is what you mean, I dunnow If that actually worked. When I still tried to do stuff and edit the crashing project (tough as said, it hardly took any changes and process before it triggered that message) and then crashed and shut down, and I opened up the program again (trying to open the same project that way), it asked me If I wanted to re-create the missing process from the last crash of the same project. I tried it and it automaticly was renamed to a for example Project.copy. But when I tried to work with that it was to no futher success, the project kept crashing. I haven't renamed the project by "Save As" tough, but I doubt it'll work, I even tried to rename the actual project file in the Adobe Premiere Elements files but nope... the project keeps crashing. But also about the same question, "Save As" under a new name but in its own folder? You mean the actual project folder or Adobe Premiere Elements preview folder of the projects?
My camcorder is pretty old by now, have had it since I turned 15, it has worked pretty good since then. Its model is a Sony Handycam, Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar OPTICAL 20x. Even tough the last thing maybe doesn't say anything, this is all I know about my camcorder, except that it is a model no. DCR-HC17E PAL. But in that Project which keeps crashing, there are only a few actual camcorder clips used as I am making a Game-MusicVideo and most of the footage of the Video-game (actually a PC game) I'm making a musicvideo of is downloaded from Youtube mostly from a guy I asked permission for to download his recorded footage of the game. I used a Youtube downloader called ClipConverter. As I don't have a SD card I cannot make this footage myself. But some footage I recorded on my camcorder, but If I can find high quality clips and get them, I will. The other footages is actual official trailers of the PC games which also was downloaded from the net. But I can give you the stuffs filetypes and hoping that may help. The downloaded footage which was downloaded by this ClipConverter, are MP4 files. The other stuff (which were official trailers) and most of them are also MP4 files, the others are QuickTime-film files. Many of these downloaded footages and trailers are also in HD quality, at least some of them I think.
The actual filetype ofthe footage I myself recorded with my camcorder are, well.... it says Videoclip in the file. Maybe it is AVI?
The project settings? You mean the settings you set at first when starting as a new project? The general settings are, in editingsettings it is AVCHD 270p square pixel. This is kinda hard for me to tell since everything is in swedish in my program. But these settings has worked perfectly before, same with all files, footages and videoclips I have been using, also all the soundfiles etc. Even the actual crashing project worked perfectly before it started crashing... So why does it so suddenly start crashing now?
The audio is a song I copied directly from its album and CD into the computer/PC and it seems to be in WMA format in filetype.
And lastly, no I haven't rendered the timeline of the project ever, not even on my other projects. What does the rendering do and is useful for? I have very little knowledge of it. Other, I keep the Timeline mode open all the time because I can edit my videos much better with it, but perhaps that editing method make little influence of the actual problem.
Other, yesterday when writing the post and topic, I forgot to mention that I restarded my computer right after I created a new project, that testing project. When finnished with the testing I restarted the computer. Since then I haven't touched the crashing project since now tonight, when checking its settings for this post. I am also right now trying to create and save the actual videofile of it, saving it on my computer. I'll soon see If it's successful without any crashing interruptions, plus that the video itself works and is smooth when I'll play it on Windows Media Player like all the rest of my other videos. I do this just in case I must create a new project to be able to continue with my musicvideo, as the first part of it I worked very hard on.
Other and again, I am still puzzled about why this is even happening, that this project which worked perfectly fine before, just suddenly starts triggering that "Serious Error" message and crashes. And in this program which worked so perfect before. Has this happened to anyone else before? Has anyone else experienced the same issue I have? Is this a knowledgable issue which has solutions and ways to fix it?... :/

I have adobe premiere elements 10 and I am having some problems with it please help

So here are the problems I'm having with Adobe Premiere Elements 10:
1. Transitions will not load. The word loading pops up and it won't come up.
2. The videos won't play smoothly. When I press play it skipps in a way it won't play smooth which makes it really hard to edit.
3. Keeps closing out on me. It will have a thing that pops up that says "Adobe premiere elements has stopped working and closes out of the program. It does it constantly.
Please help me I don't know what is wrong with it.

The first two issues sound like a video driver problem.
What is the make/model of your video card/chip?
What is the installed video driver number and date?
For the last issue, it could be many things, including the video driver. I'd look over this ARTICLE, and if there is nothing in the first part, then move on to tuning up the OS an computer in the second part. That would probably be a good time to post the full specs. of your computer, and also both your Project and Source footage. Finally, part three covers many troubleshooting tips, and furnishes many links.
Good luck,

Need help with Adobe Premiere Elements 2

I can drag a large high rez jpeg into timeline. Then when I click to playback....it gets more pixelated. That's a bad beginning. Then, when I go to export it, I've tried several extensions. All look bad during playback on YouTube. This should be pretty simple. High quality jpeg, but is fuzzy in movie. What's going wrong?

hi Bill -
ok fine. I have PSDs too. I tried what you said.
I put a PSD right beside a JPEG in the timeline. I rendered it (which I
didn't know to do because the instructions don't even mention it. The
instructions are terrible. Seems it leaves out a lot of info.)
So, then I click PLAY on my monitor. I see no difference between the PSD
and the JPEG yet. So, if I want to put this on YouTube, what's the best way
exactly, without gettting too technical? It looks like I have the choice
between Exporting in Mpeg or Quicktime or Windows Media. I think youtube
likes wmv.

Do not know the particulars of PrE 2, but in later versions, you can
Rt-click on the Program Monitor, and choose Magnification = 100%, rather
than Fit. You might have to resize your Program Monitor, but check at 100%.
Â
Also remember a few points:
Â
1.) You are looking at a DVD-quality image now, and that was designed
with low-rez CRT TV's in mind, and NOT hi-rez computer monitors. DVD vs
hi-rez sources and displays is probably less than what VHS vs DVD was, not
that long ago.
2.) You are looking at an emulation, a preview
3.) Your images have already been compressed to JPEG once, loosing
quality. That is why I always work in PSD, especially if there has already
been one JPEG compression, whether in camera, or in the image processing
stage. I keep JPEG either out of my workflow, or as limited, as is
possible. Some do not see the quality loss with JPEG compression, but I do,
and if I can create images that are as good as it gets, I know that my
clients will be happy.

Adobe Premiere Elements Help

I am using Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0 with Windows 7. It's worked before, but now every time I try to work on my project a window pops up that says "Adobe Premiere Elements has stopped working" and the programs closes. Occasionally, a different window pops up that says "Adobe Premiere Elements is low on system memory. Please save your project and proceed with caution." Help!

I think that we need to look at those low memory messages. And, we need more details.
1. Given you have Premiere Elements 4 on Windows 7? Is that 32 bit or 64 bit. Premiere Elements 4 will be a 32 bit application either way with max. supported installed RAM = 4 GB of which 3 GB of RAM or less are available. So, first, how much RAM do you have installed and how much of that is available?
2. What is your project preset and what are the properties of your source media? Photos, pixel dimensions and how many photos; video, properties for video and audio....total duration of the Timeline. Those video and audio compressions as well as the file extension are important. Are you working with any DV AVI Type 1 video on that Timeline?
3. How long ago did it work before? And for how long were you working with Premiere Elements 4 without issues?
4. Have you optimized your computer? Besides the RAM situation, how much free hard drive space do you have? Do you do routine computer maintenance to get rid of pile ups of preview files, conformed audio, and conformed video?
5. Since the time when things were working until now, any additional programs, codecs, plug-ins, and the like?
6. What specifically are you doing in the project when you get these low memory messages and/or program and project shut downs?
Are you just opening the project, in the middle of some heavy editing, or other?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
The answers will be in the details.
Thanks.

I have adobe premiere element 9. I have never been able to upload a clear video to youtube, always a pixel mess. the video is great before, crap once downloaded. I never found anyone to help me...Thanks in advance

Hello, I have adobe premiere element 9. I have never been able to upload a clear video to youtube. Great before, a pixel mess once uploaded. I have try all the different set up, some are a bit better but far from being nice to watch. I have a gopro, movie are taken in HD and a fairly new panasanic video, also HD. If I upload straight from the gopro movie (not using adobe) the video is great on youtube. I try to save the finished video (from adobe) on my computer, then upload it (not using adobe) still a pixel mess. I am not an expert but I have seen some nice and clear video on youtube and I would love to be able to do the same. I recently downloaded "handbrake" and make my finished video through it...still a pixel mess. I am not sure what to do, something maybe with my set up, the rendering....I have no idea.....
Any help will be very appreciated
Thanks in advance

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 9 running on?
Pick a video source and let us stick with it through the troubleshooting.
What are the properties of the source file
Video Compression
Audio Compression
Frame Size
Frame Rate
Interlaced or Progressive
File Extension
Pixel Aspect Ratio
Duration
What have you been setting as the project preset for this video?
What is the file size and duration of this upload to YouTube from within the Premiere Elements project?
If you export the Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive and then upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site, what are
all the Premiere Elements export settings for the saving of the file for uploading later to YouTube?
That is a lot to be asking. But the answers will be in the details.
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next to solve this issue.
Thanks.
