Can't change default video transition duration in PRE7 project

I couldn't find the solution  for the following problem. In one of my Premiere Elements 7 projects, suddenly the video transition default duration changed from 30 frames to 3 frames. After inserting this 3 frames long transition, I can adjust it (expanding or shrinking) in the timeline, change the duration via the "Edit Transition" dialog box, however there is no way I can change the default duration. I can change the duration value in the Edit > Preferences > General dialog box but it has no effect on the actual duration. This is true for all transitions. On the other hand, the other projects (I checked a few), also  a new project work properly: In them, the default duration is 30 frames, and I can set it in the Properties dialog box to any other value. So, this problem appears to be project specific. I hope somebody can help me, so I do not have to redo this particular project. Thanks in advance, Laci.

Steve, This is the same camcorder I have been using the last five years. Other projects from footages taken the same time are working fine. Also, I just created a 'new' (test) project from the same clips (many clips, about 25 minutes, several bmp pictures in it) - and it also works fine! It must be some very peculiar feature of that particular project, and I do not think it is worth to spend more time with it. I just thought that it might have happened with somebody else and there is a known solution. I consider this issue closed, thanks for the help. Laci. (PS: I also have an insignificant problem: I uploaded my picture to my preferences page here a couple of months ago, set it to be displayed but it does not appear. Who could help with this? Thanks.)

  • Default Video Transition

    Is it possible to change your default video transition?

    You can save a transition you want to use a lot as a "Favorite" and then it is easily accessible for frequent use.

    can you add batch video transition in adobe premiere cs5.5?
    i want to make a slide show with my pictures and i dont want to add fade in/out 400 times so is there any batch transition or one click fade in/out or at least something like that?

    Use:
    1. Automate to sequence and select the transition you want, or
    2. Apply the transition in the timeline, copy, select the rest of the clips and paste attributes.

  • I Can Not Change My Video Rendering and Playback Setting...

    Normally you should be able to change the "Video rendering and playback" in Project Settings to "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration", if you're using a some what high-end system... But when I go to the Project Settings, the bar is grey and I can't select anything, all I see is "Mercury Playback Engine Software Only" in grey. I have a HP Pavilion dv8 laptop, with NVIDIA GeForce GT 230M. How can I fix this situation?

    Here is a LIST of SUPPORTED VIDEO CARDS. Now, the list might have grown a bit, by now, so I am not sure that this is 100% inclusive today.
    Good luck,

  • Premiere Elements 9 can't find moved videos?  How to move projects?

    I have a customer with an almost full hard drive, with almost 100GB of Premiere Elements stuff.  I copied the videos (.mts) to an external drive but the project can't find them there.  I can open a project and go to Get Media, and if I browse to C:\My Documents\My Videos (the original location), I can get the video.  If I browse to the new location (E:\My Videos), I can see the video but double clicking it does nothing.
    I have looked in all the preferences in the Organizer and the Project and I can't find the path "C:\My Documents\My Videos" anywhere, so I can't change it to the new location.  Projects can find them in "C:\My Documents\My Videos" even though the current path to videos is shown as "C:\My Documents\My Pictures".  How do I do this?
    A second question:  How do I move projects to the new location?  Most of the answers I have found are for Elements 4 or so.  If it's obvious and is answered in another location, a link would be great.

    To move a project to a new location -- such as to an external drive -- use the Project Archiver, under the File menu.
    This will copy not only the project file but also all of the connected media files associated with a project without losing the links. You can then delete the original project and media files from the C drive.
    Otherwise, you'll need to open each project and manually locate the links to the media clips -- which is no fun. (Although, if the clips are all in the same folder on your drive, if you connect one clip, the program will recognize the others and automatically re-connect all of the clips for that project.)

  • I can't change the pan / zoom duration in Premiere Elements 13

    Ok I'm getting really frustrated especially after I just watched a video tutorial which clearly shows how to do this in Premiere Elements 10 and I have JUST purchased version 13!
    What I'm not able to adjust is the speed or duration between focus frames in a pan / zoom; after it's set up.
    You are supposed to be able to go into the PAN TOOL, and either click on the pan duration, or in the In the Pan Time dialog, scrub the time duration to the desired value, or enter a value in the dialog box, OR simply adjust / drag the focus frame markers in the timeline (like in the video tutorial I watched...) to change the pan duration.  In my software at least NONE of these work.  (All these from:  Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Pan and zoom to create video-like effect)
    I can't click on the pan duration, well if I do nothing happens, I can't even get a Pan Time Dialog box; so I can't do it that way; and lastly I can't click and adjust the focus frame markers in the timeline....none of it works and I can hardly believe that this is correct...the only way that I can adjust the pan time, is to delete the effect completely and start it over...this can't be correct can it??
    Any help would be appreciated!!!

    Ok yep you are great, so I'm sorry I'm attempting to do it on video clips, not stills. 
    I was aware that the last versions of PE had similar Pan and Zoom workspaces, that's why I knew or thought I knew that my situation could be solved.
    The first link that you recommend is exactly where I got the third paragraph of my question, so I had already reviewed that and to me when you read the directive it still makes it sound like you can adjust the focus frame markers....?  (very confusing)
    The second link you sent might have helped me realize that the tool doesn't work the same way for Stills and it does for Video clips; (I really think like on the Adobe web site this difference should be markedly more clear to help with confusion; but in their defense maybe it's me being slow to understand)
    I was able to figure out some of the difference through perseverance last night, and did figure out (like your last link explains) that you can move the CTI and then add a new focus frame...BUT I still have my original question...how can you adjust the pan duration on a video clip after it's been made and you have left the pan and zoom tool like if you want to edit that timing... I think the answer is that you can't lol, I think it has to be deleted or a new focus frame added and the other deleted to adjust the timing...am I correct?
    This quote is taken from the Adobe web site one of the links you shared 
    You can work with focus frames in videos the same way that you work with focus frames for images. However, only those options that are relevant to movie clips appear in the pan and zoom tool.
    I think maybe the last sentence is attempting to explain that but it's just so ambiguous...
    Just trying to figure it out!  I do appreciate your help! 

  • No HDMI Audio, Failed to Play Test Tone, Can't Change Default Playback Device

    Hello, I'm experiencing some real trouble with my HP Pavilion dv6-2160us (with the i3-330M, no dedicated graphics) Windows 7-64 bit, SP1 PC, and I would greatly appreciate some assistance.
    I've created a new thread because, despite the fact that many other people have experienced a problem similar to this and have posted what worked for them, nothing has worked for me.
    The Problem(s):
    My main problem is that I cannot get any audio to play from my PC to my HDMI HDTV.
    When I plug my HDMI cable into my PC and TV, the TV is recognized in Playback Devices, but nothing can play to it.
    When I try to test the TV in playback devices, I get a "Failed to play test tone" error.
    Additionally, I'd like to mention some other odd behavior that I think may be a part of the main problem.
    In Playback Devices, I cannot change anything. I can't disable or enable a device, I can't set default playback or communication devices, and I can't save changes inside device properties. Every time I try to change something, like the default playback device, nothing happens or the changes are immediately reversed.
    The Question:
    How can I get audio to play over HDMI on my PC (It's not a problem with the TV, my other HP machines play audio over HDMI to it just fine.)?
    What I've Tried:
    I have tried:
    Changing the default playback devices, which I'm unable to do
    Running the Windows 7 Audio Playback troubleshooters from within a clean boot state
    Uninstalling and reinstalling the Intel(R) Display Audio driver
    Uninstalling and reinstalling the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
    Uninstalling the IDT PC Audio program from Programs and Features
    Disabling the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
    Nothing has worked.
    The drivers I have are the latest issued by HP
    How can I get this working? I would really appreciate some assistance.
    I'm at the point where I'm ready to try pretty technically-involved suggestions, so, please feel free to post those.
    Your expertise is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • ITunes U can not change the video view size to 1x

    After updating to iOS 6, I realised that the iTunes U video play can only display the maximal size view which makes the video quality very poor and there isn't any way for to change the video to 1x size. I wonder if anyone has found a solution for this issue yet. Thank you and look forward to hearing answers about this issue.

  • How can I change default build time from 1 sec to .5 sec?

    I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

  • How can I change default message encoding in Mail?

    In Lion, most of my email messages in Simplified Chinese is encoded in iso-2022-cn, while I want them in gb18030 or utf-8. Instead of choosing encoding manually every time, can I change the default message encoding somewhere?

    I think the only reliable way to do something like you want is to include something like a Unicode dingbat (range 2700)  as part of each message (i.e. in your signature).  That will ensure it goes out as UTF-8.
