Adome Premiere Elements 7.0 Video Playback jitter

Hi Having problems playing videos in Premiere elements.
Once imported I them imported into premiere elements and then play it- the video is jittery and not smooth. Playing it in more basic players seems to not have any problems at all.- I'm unsure why this is occurring in premiere.
Laptop Specs are 2.0MHZ CPU,2GB RAM 20GB Free HDD Space- files are 20MB.
Ive defragged the drive and gone through and cleaned up things- can anyone advise where I start and what things may need configuring etc...- this occurs to any video played in Adobe Elements premiere 7.0. Files are imported from a Sony handy cam HDR-SR11
Kind Regards John

You've got a number of problematic issues, John.
For one, your computer is underpowered. A laptop running 2 mhz is barely fast enough to run the program, even editing standard video -- and 20 gig of free hard drive space will not likely be enough to allow for scratch disk files for any intensive video work and the fragmentation and paging that always happens on a C drive.
But you've compounded all of that by trying edit AVCHD video, probably the most challenging, intensive format to edit on any computer. Most people who are successfully editing AVCHD are doing so on state of the art quad-core computers.
So, unfortunately, you're just not going to be able to work with this program, editing that video on this computer. Sorry.
The FAQs at the top of this forum offer our suggestions for minimum computer specs. The computer at the bottom of the list would most likely be required to edit video from that camcorder.

Does premiere elements support analog video

I have DVD's of analog videos burned from a 8mm Camcorder recorded in UDF format. Does Premiere Elements support analog video for editing?

theodorepost
Thanks for what sounds like good news.
I see no need for you to convert those VTS_01_1.VOB files into anything else.
Here is my suggested plan...
a. Download and install the free 30 day tryout of Premiere Elements 12 from Adobe
b. Put your DVD disc in the DVD burner tray. Open Premiere Elements 12 to the Expert workspace.
Click on File Menu/New/Export and set the project preset for NTSC DV Standard or Widescreen (depending on whether
your files are for standard 4:3 or widescreen 16:9)...do not forget the check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on
This Project".
c. Then back in the Expert workspace, use Add Media/"DVD Camera or Computer Drive"/Video Importer. In the Video Importer,
put a check mark next to your VTS_01_1.VOB, a check mark next to Add to Timeline, and designate at Save In location. Then click
Get Media to put the file in Project Assets and on the Timeline.
d. Then we can gauge the situation.
Again, if possible, do not purchase the program until you have work through the tryout in order determine if Premiere Elements 12 work for your video editing/export goals and is compatible with your computer environment.
We will be watching for further developments.
ATR
Add On...If any problems (I do not expect any) with Add Media/DVD Camera or Computer Drive), we might consider Add Media/Files and Folders/ and navigate to the VTS_01_1.VOB.

Premiere Elements 11 Audio & Video are not in sync

I am using Premiere Elements 11 for editing sermons, and recently I have noticed that in all of the finalized videos the audio and video are out of sync about half-way through the sermon. I know it is not the DVDs since they have no issues when running in a DVD player or with Windows Media Player. The DVD's that are formated after service break the sermon into three files. The files, after importing them to Premiere, read "VTS_01_1. VOB, VTS_01_2. VOB, VTS_01_3.VOB" The first file runs fine with no delay, but the last two consistently are off. When I first installed this program I had no trouble with this so I am wondering did I change something or is there a better way to do this.

terriCCC
Is your Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit?
How are you getting those VOBs to the Expert workspace Timeline?
Are you placing your DVD in the DVD burner tray, opening Premiere Elements 11 to use its Add Media/"DVD Camera or Computer Drive"/Video Importer with "Add To Timeline" and the ripped VOBs select in the Video Importer dialog? Or, other?
Please clarify what you are exporting your Timeline to for this playback that is out of sync...file saved to the computer hard drive or to DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen format on DVD disc. Are you setting the correct project preset? If your DVD represents DVD-VIDEO standard is your project preset NTSC DV Standard; if your DVD represents DVD-VIDEO widescreen is your project preset NTSC DV Widescreen?
Each VOB cannot accept more than 0.99 GB. So, when more data are involved, another VOB is generated. Right now it looks like you have 3 x 0.99 GB on your Timeline. What total duration are you seeing? When you get to the burn dialog for one of these projects, what are you seeing in the burn dialog for Space Required and Bitrate.
When quality and out of sync audio occur with the ripping of the content into the video component VOBs, some have tried a seamless DVD.vob approach (combined VOBs in one file) using the computer Command Prompt and then importing the DVD.vob instead of the individual VOBs. I have written about this in a blog post.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/09/pe-dvd-videoseamless-vob-ripping.html
I do not know if we are ready for this just yet.
Let us confirmed the details of what you are doing now as per the questions that I have asked.
Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
Thank you.

DVD burned in Premiere Elements 4 freezes on playback

I have a Dell with Windows Vista Home Premium and I use Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0 for video editing. Recently, I've encounterd a problem with my burned DVDs freezing during playback, especially near menu markers, on a variety of stand alone DVD players.
I've been searching various forums to find a solution. I was told it was a problem with cheap media so I've tried various name brands on the DVDs with no cure. I was told to reduce the burn speed on the DVD recorder, but I have no idea how to change the burn speed on the DVD recorder I was also told to burn the project to a DVD folder and then import it into the software thant came with the DVD recorder. I burned the PE4 project to a DVD folder but can't figure out how to open it in Roxio Easy Media Creator 9 in order to try a different burning software.
So how do I change burn speed on the PC's DVD recorder? How do I open the PE4 project in Roxio? Can anyone recommend another solution?

Don't discount any of the posted suggestions, but I work with VOB type files often, and here's what I found works best (for me any way).
When and if at all possible, always convert VOB type files to DV-AVI, then import this into PE for editing.
First you need to combine all the VOB's off of one DVD disc into one large VOB file.
This will eliminate the OOS (out-of-sync) issues you are seeing between audio and video.
View this link for details:
http://muvipix.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2469
Once combined, then use Prism to convert the single VOB into the DV-AVI format.
Use this FAQ link for Prism or Win Movie Maker convert options:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317?tstart=0
I have found large VOB and MPG files to be a challenge to work with within PE, but once converted via the method described, PE is very stabile and the editing experience goes up an order of magnatude.
Convert the VOB's, trust me on this one...

Premiere Elements 11 crashes during playback after adding PiP

I have Adobe Premiere Elements 11, up to date, and Windows 7 home up to date. This is a new problem that just started with my most recent project. I have done these types of edits and PiP's many times with success with the same type of source video formats, etc.
The problem: I add a small clip of video over the main video timeline as Picture in Picture. It adds to the timeline successfully and I can even play it back ok (before rendering). If I add a transition to the front of the PiP, it will crash during playback (pre-render). Or, if I render the timeline before adding the transition, it will also crash during playback once it gets to the PiP.
I tested PiP with still pictures and that works ok, it only crashes on video PiP. I have tested different video formats (from GoPro and from Panasonic camcorder) with the same results (crashes). I have uninstalled Adobe Premiere as well as Quicktime and re-installed them, same results. I am quite frustrated with the constant crashes, especially since I have done a dozen or more videos the same exact way using the same cameras and same types of video files.
Any help is appreciated.
Justin

So I created a new project using the project preset "DSLR 1080p30 @29.97". Everything worked fine in that project using the same source videos and doing PiP (tested with both methods).
I opened the project that was giving me problems and the PiP worked when using your approach of dropping the PiP clip onto Video 2 then scaling it down. I then deleted that PiP and re-added it the way I was doing it before, and it crashed the first time I tried to play it back.
I closed down Elements and again tried to reproduce the crash the same way, but this time it worked and did not crash...I tried multiple times to reproduce the crash, sometimes it would, sometimes it wouldn't...
So, I don't know exactly what the problem is. Lastnight I could reproduce the crash every time by either rendering the PiP or adding a transition to the front of it (then playing it back), every time it would crash. Now it is behaving differently.
At any rate, I will start using the correct project settings going forward and know that I can PiP using the other method as well. Maybe the project that is giving me problems is just corrupted or something, I'll toss it an start anew.

Premiere Elements 8 & MP4 video problem

A.T. Romano
Attached is my MP4 video from my Sanyo Xacti. When I perform a "Get Media" in Premiere Elements 8 I only see red cells in the timeline, task panel and playback monitor were red. No video images would display, only sound. Any Ideas?
Thanks APK

APK
SANY0002.MP4
According the gspot utility
Video Codec = MPEG-4 Video
Frame Size: 1280 x 720
Frame Rate: 29.97 frames per second
Sar = .1778 (16:9)
Par = 1:1
Dar = 1.778 (16:9)
Audio Codec = MPEG-4 AAC LC
48000 Hz 128 kb/s tot, stereo (2/0)
Premiere Elements 8 Import/Playback
SANY002.MP4 original. Video and Audio imported, but video presented as a bright red matte, but audio was fine.
SANY002.MP4 with file extension changed to .AVI. Video and Audio imported, but video presented as black video, but audio was fine.
Conversion Workaround Solution
Convert file to DV AVI widescreen (720 x 480 with 16:9 flag)
MPEG Streamclip (free MPEG Streamclip + QuickTime Alternative 1.81 (with free MPEG2 Playback Component) and uninstall regular QuickTime OR free MPEG Streamclip, leave your regular QuickTime installed, and buy the required Apple MPEG2 Playback Component)
http://www.squared5.com/
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
MPEG Streamclip suggested settings:
File Menu/Open, to bring in your video
File Menu/Export to AVI
Then in AVI/DivX Explorer dialog:
Compressor: Apple DV/DVCPRO-NTSC
Sound: Uncompressed
Put a dot next to 720 x 480 (DV NTSC)
Field Dominance: Lower Field First
Up at top right, click on Options, set there for Aspect Ratio = 16:9.
Only if necessary, put a check mark next to Deinterlace Video.
Anything that I did not mention, leave as is.
Finally, click on Make AVI and the job is done quickly and effectively.
This gave great results with your video, and this DV AVI version worked well video and audio wise in Premiere Elements 8.
Your could use the free Prism Video Converter, but the free version is limited to 4:3, and some export types are only available in the purchased version.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317?tstart=0
Prism suggested settings:
Output format = .avi
Encoder Options = DV Encoder NTSC (Direct Show)
Edit Option = check mark next to Resize Video; uncheck Constrain Proportions; set for 720 x 480.
You could also get a .wmv version from this software. Look into that if you decide to use this converter instead of MPEG Streamclip which is my favorite.
There are lots to explore with your original HD MPEG-4 and its problems with Premiere Elements 8. At one point I had this video on a jump drive. When I went to import the video into Premiere Elements 8 from this jump drive, the Media Downloader was triggered. In the intermediate part of this process, a thumbnail of the video being exported is shown in the Media Downloader Advanced dialog. Interestingly, the thumbnail in the Media Downloader showed the video clearly, but once it got into the Premiere Elements 8 media area—bright red matte looking image in Organizer thumbnail and in the Edit Mode Monitor once the video was dragged to the Timeline.

Premiere elements HD export video freezes

Whenever I export a Video from Premiere Elements 13, the playback on the exported file is messed up. It will work fine for 9-13 seconds (literally the range) and then the screen freezes and the whole thing glitches out and is effectively useless. I should not that 720p usually works but when I try to export it in 1080p it fails. The videos are filmed in 1080p. This happens using both of my Drift model mobile cameras AND my Canon regular camera.
I am running Windows 8, and the playback is using VLC media player. I just purchased Elements a few months ago.

Also, have tried exporting in all of the 1080 HD options with all of the framerate options, but my cameras film at 30 FPS

Premiere Elements 9 - MTS-Video keine Tonspur

Hallo,
ich habe bisher mit Premiere Elements 8 gearbeitet und konnte die HDV Videos meiner Panasonic Lumix TZ10 (MTS) ohne Probleme im Editor einfügen und bearbeiten.
Mit dem neuen Premiere Elements 9 habe ich beim einfügen der MTS-Datei keine Tonspur, auch die direkte Vorschau ist stumm (Video wird gezeigt).
Ich habe versuchsweise mal einen VOB-File von einer selbst erstellten DVD in der 8er und dann zum Vergleich in der neuen 9er Version eingefügt. Hier ist genaus der selbe Fehler: In Premiere Elements 9 hat auch der VOB-File keine Tonspur.
Handelt es sich hier um einen Fehler oder gibt es in der neuen Version irgendeinen Schalter?
Mein System:
Windows 7 Professional 64bit
6 GB Ram
Intel I7 920 (2,79 GHz)
HDGaspen

I can't answer yes or not confidently, so I'll walk through what I'm seeing.
Project Settings > General, indicate Video Frame Size 1920x1080, square pixels 1.0.
When I edit in the timeline and drag and drop new clips, I have them all set to default scale to frame size. Additionally, anything I create in photoshop I save on a 640x360 canvass so I'm using the same baseline size for everything, that way I know where it will all end up when I bring it into elements.
When I share, I'm then choosing the following settings:
Windows Media > Email and Playback on a PC
Presets: custom
     Video frame: 640x360
     Rate 29.97fps
     Pixel aspect ratio NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2121).
The rest shouldn't affect it. Now that I'm typing that out I see a discrepency. The source pixel ratio is square, while the output I'm trying to make is widescreen. That may have some negative effects. I'm going to change the output to a square pixel and re-produce (which will take upwards of an hour) and try that.
Aside from the pixels, does my info above answer your other questions? Do you see any other issues with what I'm doing?

Premiere Elements 8 - Edited video will not open

Hoping I can get some assistance from the gurus here! I have recently completed editing a video and uploaded to the video to the Adobe online sharing site. Problem is I cannot access it from the online site, nor will it load/display when I attempt to open from Premiere Elements. Trying not to panic; any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Just to make sure that I am following you, you have completed the editing on a Project in PrE 8, and then did a Share to your account on Adobe.Com. For some reason, that file is not displaying on your Adobe.Com account, or at least you cannot get to it Is that correct?
Back in the original Project, can you do another Export/Share to another output AV file?
As I have never used the personal Adobe.Com site, I cannot be of any help to you there, but others know the processes and mechanics, and will likely be able to assist.
Good luck,

Premiere Elements 11 Download video from youtube.

The image was small so I dragged it to make it bigger.
I trimmed it and it plays fine. But after rendering it is jittery. Please help.

footcandles54
Unless there has been recent changes, YouTube agreement does not permit for downloads (ripping) of its videos, except as otherwise stipulated or in the case when you are downloading video that you personally uploaded to YouTube in the first place.
When I lost the original file that I had uploaded to YouTube, I was able to download from YouTube itself a .mp4 version of it with excellent quality for use in Premiere Elements or elsewhere.

Premiere Elements 12 - My videos have extra minutes of black space added that I don't know how to get rid of.

I just finished making a video that runs to about the 13 minute mark. After that I don't have anything on the timeline. Despite this, the duration I see when I try to export is about 25 minutes. I then watched the video to confirm that I had an extra 12-13 minutes or so of blank, black, empty space added to the end of the video. I made doubly sure that there was no tiny file a chopped off on accident or anything, there's just nothing there. This has been a recurring problem, having occurred with a 7-ish minute video being expanded to 15.

born
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? Be sure to update 12 to 12.1 via a project's Help Menu/Update. Background information. For now I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
Now to the core of the matter and a quick way to find and correct the problem which is related to fragment beyond what you consider to be the end of your Timeline content.
1. Open the project to the Expert workspace. Expand the Timeline content maximally by taking the Zoom Out-Zoom In Slider above the Timeline all the way to the right.
2. Hit the computer keyboard End Key. That should take the Timeline Indicator to the spot where the fragment(s) is (are)..
These fragments typically present as thin vertical black lines scattered among the track contents. Could even be a file that you pushed out of the way when
you were editing and forgot you left it there. Search all tracks.
3. After you find and delete it or them, then use the End Key again to make sure that this time Timeline Indicator stops at the end of your intended Timeline content when you press the computer keyboard End key.
Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Premiere Elements 9 Shakey Video After Render!?

Hi
I am using Premiere Elements 9 to create my videos.
For some reason when I render my videos out the material is shaky?
I've been rendering my videos to play on windows media and the format is HD720p 30
The camera I am using is a Panasonic HDC-SD200 Full HD 1920x1080 (I've been downloading the material from the SD to the computer and then uploading it to Prem that way)
Any help would be great!
Cheers!!

When you started your Premiere Elements project, which project settings did you select? (You can check -- but not change it -- underr Edit/Project Settings.)
Your camcorder shoots in a variety of formats. However, assuming you shot in HA or HG format, you should have selected the project settings for Full AVCHD 1920x1080. (Your camcorder also has options to shoot in stereo or 5.1 audio, and you must select the correct setting for it also.)
If you've selected any other project setting that would explain the stuttering you're seeing. It's an frame rater interlacing conflict. Try setting up a project as I recommend and put some test footage in it. If you then output test footge as a WMV, it should look terrific.
Note that great improvements in working with AVCHD have been made in more recent versions of Premiere Elements. Version 11, for instance, automatically sets up your project to match your video, so you would not have had this issue.

Can Premiere Elements 13 export videos at 60 FPS?

I am currently using Premiere Elements 10, and the highest quality video I am able to export for any file type is only 30 Frames Per Second. Does Premiere Elements 13 allow you to export videos at 60 Frames Per Second?
I am trying to export high quality gameplay footage captured at 60 FPS. I can import those videos into Premiere Elements 10, but since I can only export 30 FPS videos, the quality suffers.

apogue87
Whether you use Premiere Elements 10 or 13, you should have the opportunity to export to file with a frame rate of 59.94/60 progressive frames per second. You do that my customizing the preset under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the preset.
If you post properties of your Timeline content and the export format that you seek, I will give you more specific details. You should not have to go to 13 for what you seek.
Please review and consider, and supply more information.
Thank you.

Premiere elements not accepting video from my iphone 4s

Hi.
can't get my iphone 4s video into adobe premiere elements 10. won't accept it.

Hi.
Sure appreciate your interest and assistance.
You asked: “When you saved in Elements before what was the free space amount at the save location designated....and now what is
the free external hard drive space when you designate it as the save location for your Premiere Elements saves?”
I never designate the external hard drive as the save location. It makes a copy automatically.
Also, you mention investigating “drive speeds.” I didn’t think the external hard drive has a drive speed (?).
If it does, would that mean the external hard drive is somehow helping the desktop internal hard drive?
I’m not sure what you mean when you say: (With the plug in and out external hard drive situation), periodically check the drive letter of the external hard drive to assure
that it is not changing. That could cause some media disconnect issues for your projects if the projects source media are
stored on the external hard drive.” I think the external hard drive just makes a copy.
Let me know.
thanks.
