Downloading Instant Movie Themes -Premiere Elements 13

I am using an HP 350 G1 with Windows 7 64 bit system. When trying to create and instant movie and attempting to download any theme, it is taking a long time to download and frequently says the download failed and that either I have lost my internet connection or the server is unavailable. I hit retry and it seems to continue but gets stuck at the end saying "completing download".

Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 7 64 bit. Have you updated 13 to 13.1 yet using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates? If not, please do so.
But to the matter of the Instant Movie content downloads. Is the issue restricted to Instant Movie or to other content download as well.
What is the down/up Internet speeds?
The loss of the Adobe content installation disc has been of concern. But, I managed with content download with my DSL Internet (with
speeds in the Kbps (kilobits per second). The content download was often time consuming but did eventually go to completion. Recently
I was forced into an Internet change, resulting in Internet speeds that are in the megabits per second range. What a difference in Content download.
So, let us look at the Internet speeds first and then decide what next if those do not explain the situation you face obtaining content download.
Have you check with your Internet provider to determine if there are problems with your Internet connection? Did you clear the browser Options/Advanced/Network/Cached Web Content and turned off the route for about 45 seconds?
Looking forward to your results.
Thank you.

Is there somewhere that I can buy additional instant movie themes for Adobe Premiere Elements 12?

Just wondering if there are any additional themes that are available to purchase and download for the program? Thank you.

LizzyLove
As to your thread question..not that I have ever run into. You can customize the Adobe Instant Movies by creating an Instant Movie and then using the Break Apart Instant Movie at the Timeline level to do just that and modify that just created Instant Movie as wanted.
There are no additional theme to purchase. And, the existing Instant Movie (Content Download type) for an Adobe design needs to be downloaded from within the program (See Instant Movie display of choices and thumbnail with blue ban at the top right corner of that thumbnail. Select Download Now (to obtain completed files for theme) or Download All (to obtain completed files for All Instant Movie theme choices).

Instant Movie Themes Download Error

I have just upgraded to PE11 and have a series of jpg images in a PE file that I was trying to create as a slideshow.
I have been using the expert view (although I cannot see that makes any difference) and thought I would try out the instant movie themes.
The Pan and Zoom theme works fine, but I cannot get any of the other themes to work. Selecting the theme and clicking the next button, PE11 shows the dialogue box in the attached image suggesting it is downloading content. BUT, it never finishes and just cycles around the download with the blue bar filling, clearing and then starting again. There is no error message, just a constant cycling of the blue bar.
Has anyone else come across this?
Thanks.

As you can see, the program will download the other themes as needed. That's what it's trying to do in the illustration you provided.
Have you registered the program and signed in with your Adobe ID?
Do you have a good, reliable internet connection?
If the answer to both of those questions is yes, you may have just caught the Adobe site offline. Try again. Depending on your internet speed, it can take a couple of minutes.

How to download a DVD movie into Premiere Elements 12 using my MacBook Pro so I can edit the video?

How to download a DVD movie into Premiere Elements 12 using my MacBook Pro so I can edit the video?

Bob Perez
Please review and consider the following which works for me in Premiere Elements 12 Window 64 bit.
From what you wrote, I suspect that you have DVD-VIDEO widescreen on DVD disc. For now I will assume that you are working in a NTSC setup.
Premiere Elements DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc is characterized as interlaced video with field order lower (bottom) field first. I am not sure how your DVD-VIDEO on DVD was produced - upper (top) field first or lower (bottom) field first. We may have to apply Field Option Reverse Field Dominance at the Timeline level, but for now let us put that aside for a later time.
Insert your DVD disc in the DVD burner tray.
Open Premiere Elements to the Expert workspace and set the project preset manually for NTSC DV Widescreen. How to details for manual project preset setting are found
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
Then, Add Media/DVD camera or Computer Drive/Video Importer.
The video files from the DVD-VIDEO will be the larger size files and will probably start with VTS_01_1.VOB.
In the Video Importer designate the save location for video file VOB(s) and select Add to Timeline and hit Get Media
to put the files on the Timeline for editing.
If you have more than one DVD disc to "rip", please set up the Video Importer Save In location so that the save in location has a folder for each disc. The fact that all DVDs have the same VTS_01_1.VOB name etc will cause problems if you saved all to the same place as individual files.
Determine how that works for you in your Mac computer environment. We will be watching for your progress.
Others may tell you that you need to convert the VOB to another format before import into Premiere Elements. That is no necessary for Premiere Elements.
Thank you.

I am unable to access all the different Movie Themes in Elements.

I have Premiere Elements 10. I do not have Photoshop.com Plus Membership. I am trying to make an Instant Movie, but not all the movie themes are availble to me since I do not have Plus Membership. How can I access all the different Instant Movie Themes? Is there something I need to purchase?

Well, there are three groups of Instant Movie Themes.
The first is a very limited subset, installed with the program. I do not know the count, but I would expect maybe 1 - 3.
Then, there is a additional subset, which is much larger, and installed with the Additional Functional Content, which contains DVD/BD Menus, Titles, etc. (in addition to the few installed with the program). This is where the bulk of the Themes, etc. are. It depends on whether one installed from physical media, or from a download file. With the physical, it is a separate installation, done after the program has been installed, and on a separate disc, in most cases. With a download, it is a separate download file. Did you install from physical media, or a download.
Last, with a Photoshop.com Plus membership, from time to time, Adobe made a very few extra Themes available for download, but not that many, and a lot of subscribers were dissatisfied with that extra content. Though I have never seen the Plus material, it seemed that Adobe would offer maybe one holiday-oriented Theme per Season, i.e. a Halloween Theme in October, etc.
Please let us know a bit more,

Instant Movie Themes

Does anyone know where I can download new movie themes for Adobe Premier Elements 9? I keep typing this question into google, for this specific version, and answers for every version but this one keep coming up. Am I the only one that owns this version? I have several Instant movie themes for it already, the ones that came with it, but I am working on a project, and none of them are what I am looking for or needing, so I really need more options.

SaraNichole81
Have you downloaded all the Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 content?

If so, then you probably have as much as is available. There were scattered reports on how to make one's own, but the bottom line (easy way) seems to be, if you want something different than what Adobe has provided, then you take Adobe's Instant Movie and customize it. After the Instant Movie is created, you can right click it on the Timeline and select Break Apart Instant Movie. Then do your editing of the components that went into the Instant Movie.

Error exporting long movie in Premiere Elements 4

I just finished editing a movie in Premiere Elements 4. Every time I try to export the movie, it begins rendering, gets as far as about 15%, and then says "Export Error: Error compiling movie. Unknown error." This happens no matter what format I choose.
I've read that this problem can be caused by titles and transitions, of which this movie has both. But I think the problem is entirely due to the movie's length, which is six minutes and fifty-five seconds. I say this because if I split the movie into 25-to-50-second chunks, leaving all titles and transitions intact, all the chunks export with no problems whatsoever.
I'm not running any other programs while the movie exports, but that doesn't help.
The source files are MOV (and one PNG), and the resolution is 1920x1080. I want to export it at the same resolution, otherwise what was the point of shooting in that resolution? I'm running Windows Vista on a Samsung R522 laptop, if it helps.
For what it's worth, I did manage to successfully export the audio portion of the movie as a WAV file.
What can I do? My movie is due to premiere at a local arts festival in a few weeks, so I need to sort this out. I read somewhere that the ideal setup is to have three drives -- one for the source videos, one for running the program, and one to export the file onto. Will that help?
Many thanks for any suggestions you may have.
-Grant

Thanks Bill -- and thank you mods for moving the thread. I couldn't find an Elements forum so I assumed there wasn't one.
Actually, the progress bar in my version does tell you what frame it's on. When I tried to export it just now, it gave up around frame 2328 of 12447. Frame 2328 would be 01:17:18... which is the middle of a clip, with no titles, no effects, and no transitions, just ordinary video and sound. 30%, the number you suggested, gives frame 3738, which is 02:04:18, which is a different clip but the same deal.
The exact number varies from attempt to attempt anyway, which is why I think it's a "system memory" problem rather than a problem with a certain moment in the film. As I said, each part of the film exported fine on its own.
The videos are all MOV format, 1920x1080, ranging in size from 40 MB to 666 MB (maybe the devil is trying to stop me from exporting). There are 41 of them, giving a total of 11.9 GB. The single PNG is also 1920x1080 and 6.02 KB. The movie's audio is actually muted -- the audio that I successfully exported before was just the original audio from the raw clips.
I've got 55.3 GB of free space on my C drive and 580 GB of free space on my external drive; Premiere won't successfully export onto either of them.
Thanks for the link to the KB article, but I'd read it before and it didn't really help. As it says, "unknown error" really does mean just that. And it's clear that none of my clips or effects are problematic since they all exported fine when split into chunks.
I really do appreciate your help! I don't know too much about computers so if I didn't give you the information you were looking for please let me know.
Thanks so much,

Does your imac come with a Windows Mac interface?
If not, you cannot. There is no Premiere Elements 8 Mac version. And, you cannot install Premiere Elements 8 Windows on
a Mac computer. As I recall, Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 was the first Premiere Elements version to be offered in Windows and Mac versions.

I can't download the trial of Premiere Elements 11 - why not??

Hi - I am trying to download the trial of Premiere Elements 11 (as Adobe suggested because 10 was not working properly) but am getting nowhere. I click the "download now" button and ....nothing....nada...niente!
Help?! I can't find any evidence of the "download assistant" on my laptop (I was thinking maybe it was already there which might explain why it appeared to do nothing) but no. So I have fallen at the first hurdle.
This is a complete nightmare - why is it so difficult?!! What am I doing wrong....or is there another way to download it?
Help me please...and quick, as I'm supposed to be working but will have nothing to show for it at this rate.....I'll have to just get back to Prem Elements 10 will all its frozen pictures!!
Thanks.

Which browser are you using? Have you tried a different browser?
The downloads certainly do work.

Best method to combine Instant Movie (Theme) with regular video?

I’m creating a video and I would like to use a theme for a slideshow, yet leave the rest of the video (first 16 minutes) alone. I currently have two separate projects, one with my regular video footage and one project with the instant movie theme. So, if there is a way to copy and paste one project into another that would be perfect, yet I have not seen that option. What is the best way to accomplish this? I was thinking I could export the instant movie and then add the media to my existing project, yet I’m not sure what format to use so I don’t lose quality. The video is AVCHD (1920 x 1024), and I would eventually like to burn everything to a Blue-ray disc when I get a burner, yet for now DVD will do. Thoughts?

I like the idea of doing everything in one project, yet I’m guessing I would have an issue with doing so since the video in the timeline has been edited and the video within the available media section is the raw video (I think that is correct). However, this should work great for the stills, yet I’m not sure about the video.
My main concern is torching the non-theme video by applying a theme…
To do what you are saying; would I simply select the images (hold down CTRL and select or smart tag them?) from the media selection screen within the interface and…?

Is there an instant movie theme suitable for Real Estate videos with Premiere Plus?

Most of the themes are very flashy/snappy/loud. Before I pay $50. I would like to know that there is a theme suitable for a short real estate video of a neighborhood and walkthrough of a home. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.
I hesitated to reply, as I have only used Themes once, and then totally reconstructed the Effects. I also do not have PrE 10, so you probably have more Themes, but I am not sure that any is really suitable for your described Project. I was hoping that Steve, Neale, John T., or others, who might have more familiarity with Themes, would show up, but they have not - yet.
Looking through the Themes that I have, and even putting on my creative hat, to image how one might work as a base, and then be heavily modified for your Project, I am coming up almost at a total loss. The closest that I could come would be the Travel Theme, where the Locations (in the Theme) are changed to the houses in a neighborhood. Yes, that IS a stretch, but the best that I can come up with.
I agree with you that the Themes, in their stock form, are flashy, loud and most suited for a short treatment, that would be shown to young children, sort of like many things at a Disney themepark - bright lights that flash, loud SFX and music, bright colors, etc..Hardly suitable for a commercial, professional Video.
Now, when you write:
Before I pay $50. I would like to know that there is a theme suitable...
Are you contemplating buying a "Theme Pack," (have not seen such) or similar, or do you mean, before you buy PrE?
If the former, can you point to the source of that Theme Pack, and I will look over the details. If you mean the latter, PrE is in no way restricted to those Themes. I have used PrE for many years, and have used but one Theme (heavily modified), in all that time. I have created many commercial, business Videos, so the program has all the power that you need - just not with their Themes.
If you are contemplating the purchase of PrE, can you outline the material that you will be working with, a few of your ideas on the aesthetics, that you would like to incorporate, any technical thoughts, and give us an idea of how you will want to deliver the Video. We can help you make that decision, as to whether PrE is the right tool.
While I have not seen any of the newer versions, AVID/Pinnacle's Studio program (probably up to ~ 15 now) has, or had, similar with their Instant Movie. However, back to about Studio 10, those were in the same vein, as PrE's Themes (nearly useless, and often rather odd, though usually funny, and maybe not in the way intended?). Back through about 10, I cannot imagine one of those being useful for your purpose, but might have missed one, and Pinnacle might have finally added some that ARE useful.
Good luck, and please let us know a bit more.

Error generating movie Adobe Premiere Elements 11

Hello,
I recently upgraded from Adobe Premiere Elements 8 to 11 (11.0).
My system is Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit, running on Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.5 GHz, 4GB Ram, with 75GB free diskspace.
My input movies are AVCHD 1440x1080 25i video's (MTS files).
Everything is running fine. Editing goes smoothly (even smoother than when I was still using PE8). So in that sense I'm very satisfied and I think my system can handle it well. It doesn't seem to run out of memory, etc.
However, now I want to generate the output movie. The movie is about 10 minutes long and has some music and transitions under it. Previewing the movie goes fine.
I've tried uploading it to Youtube (HD 1440x1080 file). The progress monitor stays at 0% for 5 minutes and then suddenly goes 2 100% in a few seconds and afterwards starts to upload the movie. However, the movie that's actually uploaded contained only the first 4 seconds of the video. When I tried again, it was about 14 sec.
So, then I tried generating movies locally on the PC. I tried:
Adobe Flash HD 720p.
MPEG2 HDTV 1080i 25
MPEG2 PAL DVD Widescreen
and some other formats (can't exactly remember which).
All of them ended with errors: "Error compiling movie", with cause unknown.
So, I haven't been able to generate any movie and I can't find out why it fails.
Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Michiel

Ending a movie in Premiere Elements 7

Premiere Elements 7:
How do I end my movie without the extra 10 minutes of blackspace that shows up everytime I render it?
My movie has video clips, slides, and transitions. I never put a formal ending on it, I just stopped dragging material into the sceneline. Once I render a 30 minute video, roughly 15 extra minutes of black space show up. How do I tell Premiere Elements 7 to end the movie?
Thanks,
Ben

I am stumped, as well, especially as PE doesn't allow one to "lock" a Track, or anything similar. It should be an easy process to select, and then delete the offending Clips. If the Lasso does not work, try Rt-clicking the Clip and choosing Clear (I think that is the proper syntax for deleting in PE and not storing the Clip in the Clipboard). If not Clear (the term in P-Pro, then look for Delete).
One observation that I have made, as to a possible cause for these tiny Clips, is that if one drags a Clip to abut to another Clip, with Snap On, and you drag too far (basically banging the moved Clip against the previous Clip), you can locate the moved Clip INTO the previous one, cutting of a frame, or two. These will then automatically go to the end of the Timeline, without any warning, or notification. Then, as you tighten things up on the Timeline they remain orphaned and can be quite a ways from the actual Clips, depending on how much editing one does. The trick is to drag the Clip (the one being moved) until you see the thick black line. It now butts up to the previous Clip. Let it go now and do not drag it into the previous Clip, or you'll get those orphans. Now, they *should* be easy to delete, if you remember to go looking for them. Always check the Time Code of your (intended) Clip with the Time Code for the Duration of your Timeline. They should match frame for frame. Otherwise, you've got an orphan problem.
