Edited MPG (mpeg2) Clips lose Audio - Premiere Elements 8
I have 2 mpg files recorded off a TV. When I bring them into Elements 8.0 I can play them back and the audio is fine. However, after I edit them for length the audio disappears. It looks like somehow when the video is edited for length that the audio track is deleted. I am editing in Scene mode. Any help would be appreciated.
Steve,
Thanks for the quick reply to my question. I have a HAVA (like a slingbox) that records directly to hard disk from the cable box. It creates DVD quality MPGs. I have previously been using Pinnacle Studio to make my DVDs, but wanted to try Premiere Elements. When I bring the clips into to Premiere, I can play them just fine. I normally clip off the first 1-2 minutes of commercial items and the last several minutes before actually burning the DVD. This is where the problem comes. Once I trim the video clip, it no longer has any audio - even though the video is fine. Just as a test, I fired up my old Pinnacle Studio and brought these 2 mpgs into it. I was able to easily trim the video clips and burn a DVD - with audio.
Since I am new to Premiere, I assume it is just something I am doing wrong in the trimming process. I went through the tutorial online and think I followed it OK.

I no longer have sound when playing my clips through adobe premiere elements 12. How to I correct this problem? I have checked all audio levels and there is no mute on etc. I updated to 12.1, but still no sound in any clips. Even not on old files which used to work.

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12/12.1 running on? Can we assume that this audio plays back OK
on the same computer when you are using a computer player independent of Premiere Elements?
What are the properties of these clips that worked before but do not know with regard to sound
For now, I will assume that you are working on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
Have you checked the Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO settings? Do you have any 3rd party audio devices incorporated in your computer environment?
Please delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if that does not work, then the whole 12.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. The Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit path is
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
12.0
and, in the 12.0 Folder, is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 12.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. Make sure that you are working with Folder Option "Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives" active so that you can see the complete path cited.
Do you have installation files or installation disc with the purchased serial number in case we need to resort to uninstall/reinstall?
We will be watching for your follow up.

Unable to play preview clip on timeline Premiere Elements 10
All of a sudden, I'm unable to preview clips, even in unfinished projects that used to work. I'm running Premiere Elements 10, Windows 8.1, Flash updated etc. These clips are activated, not rendered (red line above) but doesn't show. However, if I play the clip, I can hear the sound. Sometimes the program crashes, and I have to start all over again.
Update: Now, when I click on the clip on the timeline, preview window shows one frame, while the marker continues to "play" the clip(without showing anything but the first frame as a still picture. When hitting pause again, preview window shows a still where the clip was stopped...This happens on some of the clips on the timeline. Some are just pure black
Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz 64 bit
Pls helpYes, that could be it!
I do have a NVIDA graphics card! And it's updated with the latest drivers...
Now, I'll have to find out how to do a roll back...I'll read the thread you suggested and hope for the best!
Thanks for the answer!
Additional info:
Some of the clips that wont play in the preview or full screen window, shows a still picture when setting thetimeline to it AND THE clicking on the preview window. A still shows up, but nothing happens when a hit play. Some of the clips are from my GoPro Hero3 Black, but they seem to pay fine as long as I havn't used zoom on them. On many GoPro clips I've used zoom to minimize the "fisheye" effect, and then it wont play.

Any chance you could be part of a growing crowd of Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA video card users who have run into the NVIDIA video card driver issue. For the now of this issue, the answer seems to be to roll back the driver version rather than assure that you have the latest version of it.
Please check out the following thread here where I have sought to keep track of these happenings.

Please let us know if any of that might apply to your situation.....what video card, what computer operating system?

Audio stops working in playing back a clip captured in Premiere Elements 9.0.1
I am capturing from a Mini DV camcorder using Premiere Elements 9.0.1 (I believe the latest update). I started this project a few days ago and was not having problems and then suddenly no sound on playback. I hear sound when capturing clips. I am not capturing to timeline but when I go and pull up a clip to view/playback there is no sound. I tried dragging it into timeline and just double clicking on the clip. I can here the sound if I open in WMP. When opened a clip today in Premeire I had sound then next time nothing.
I have a Intel Duo Core 3.0 ghz pc with 4gb ram. I have done many other video edits with much longer video then these clips. These are some of my first Mini DV tapes I am converting/editing. anyway, I can see the audio with a yellow line through it (meaning looks normal, not processing still). When I drag the timeline cursor/bar I can hear the choppy audio segments as I drag it forward or backward. I tried pulling up a clip in a new project and waiting several minutes before trying to listen to it, no sound. Also, I pulled up an older project that I had worked on last and know I had no problems with the audio in that project. Have the same exact problem.
Any ideas? -

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running on? If Mac, was your purchase the Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor from the Mac App Store?
Be that as it may, what are the properties of the video audio file that you are importing in Premiere Elements 11?
A quick way might be for you to tell us the brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded the video audio file (including the file extension of the file).
When the file reaches the Expert workspace Timeline which is the case
a. no sound, but audio file is represented on Audio 1
b. no sound, audio file not represented on Audio 1
c. no sound, audio file represented on Audio 1 and, when you toggle the Audio Display Style to waveform, you
see or do not see a waveform.
(to the left of the word Audio 1 is a speaker icon...clicking on that icon toggles the audio track display...one of the
two choices is the waveform).
Assuming Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit for now, go to Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/12 and delete the complete contents of the Media Cache Files Folder that you find there. Then open the program and determine if the audio problem persists. Look to the bottom right of the workspace to observe any "conforming" activity in progress when you import the file.
We will be watching for your follow up.

MPG smart rendering in Adobe Premiere Elements 7?
Hi,
Does anybody know if Adobe Premiere Elements 7 supports smart rendering of MPG files? I have a Sony HDD camcorder (non-HD) and would like to combine clips into longer MPG files without reencoding.
In the past I have used MainConcepts MPEG Elements, but that is not supported anymore (and there were issues with in anyway).
Thanks.
RalphI have Mainconcepts MPEG Elements 1.01 installed in PRE 7.
The only thing that I found that doesn't work is capturing. When I want to capture, I disable the plug-in by changing the name of the Mainconcept folder:
From:
C:\program files\common files\mainconcept\MPEG PRO PE
To:
C:\program files\common files\mainconcept\MPEG PRO PE.RJJ
When you disable the Mainconcept Plug-in, you won't be able to edit any projects that were created with a Mainconcept project preset. Well, actually you can, but PRE puts the project in "Desktop" mode.
There is a registry entry that the Mainconcept Plug-in uses during installation to determine which version of Premiere Elements the plug-in is intalled in and which version can use the plug-in.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Premiere Elements\CurrentVersion
ApplicationPath: D:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0\
Plug-InsDir: D:\Program Files\Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0\Plug-ins\en_us
I also have version 2.0 installed and when I want to use Mainconcept Plug-in with 2.0, I edit the registry settings and change 7.0 to 2.0 in the path names.
Smart Rendering does work in PRE 7 when you have the Mainconcept plug-in.
When you start Premiere Elements 7 after installing the plug-in, make sure to hold down the CTRL-ALT-SHIFT keys so the plug-in cache is reset. -
On the moment that I transfer a scene from the monitor window to the timeline, my audio disapears. In the monitor window the sound is playing well. How can I solve this problem ?
gertdd
Please explain.
You cannot move a clip from the Edit area monitor to the Timeline. When you write "monitor window", are you referring to the Preview Window that opens when you double click a file's thumbnail in Project Assets?
If that is the case, are you waiting for the audio imported to Project Assets to conform fully before you start to work with the import? See bottom right of Expert workspace and the appearance of a progress bar. See any conforming going on there?
Do you get sound for your clip if you drag it from Project Assets to the Timeline Video Track 1/Audio Track 1 rather than if you drag a trim from the Preview Window to the Timeline (as it appears you are doing).
Please review and consider, and then let me know if I have misinterpreted any of your problem description.
The answers will be in the details.
We will be watching for those details to help us help you.
Thank you.

How to stop the jerking of my video clips? on Premiere Element 10
How do I stop the jerking of my video clips when I add effetcs ..to do not zoom in or out etc..smoothly.
Thank-you,
ClaudetteClaudette,
When you started your Project, from the New Project screen, you were given some choices. If you do not recall what you chose, you can go to Edit>Projects Settings>General, and see what you chose. I do not think that location has moved in PrE 10, but if it has, someone will correct me.
Now, in very general circumstances, one should choose a Project Preset, that matches their Video Source Files 100%, or there can be issues.
However, if one ONLY has Still Images, and there is no Video being used, things differ a bit. In that instance, one would ask themselves a question, "how will I deliver my Video, created from those Still Images?" That answer might be a DVD-Video, a BD (Blu-ray Disc), a streaming Video files on a Web site, or as a file, that one sends to others. With a Stills Only Project, one would most likely choose a Project, that matches their delivery. If there are several delivery schemes used, then I would recommend choosing the one that is the highest resolution, and handling the others with Export/Share.
Now, within all Project Presets, there is a Frame Size, say 720 x 480 for an NTSC DV Project, designed to go to DVD-Video, or perhaps 1920 x 1080 for the production of a BD. Though PrE can Scale large Still Images to fit, it does not do the best job, and there is a major processing "hit," that can bring a computer to its knees. For those reasons, we recommend using a program, such as Photoshop, or Photoshop Elements, to do that Scaling, before one Imports the Still Images into the PrE Project. For SD (Standard Definition) DV, the "rule of thumb" is to Scale to 1000 x 750 pixels. For an HD Project, that same thinking would be 2000 x 1500 pixels. That gives one some "wiggle room." I will actually Scale to the exact pixel x pixel dimensions, unless I have a compelling reason to do otherwise - then, I will calculate the larger size, and Scale to exactly that.
How will you deliver your Project?
What are the specs. of the Project (using the method above)?
What are the pixel x pixel dimensions of your images? If they are random, then concentrate on the larger ones, please.
Good luck,

I have been bringing in clips fine, but one drops the audio in the sequence. Any suggestions?
Thanksas enzo suggests ... the facts of life are that every now and again, for no appreciable reason, a clip may capture with no audio or no video ... ghost in the machine... if you capture enough clips you'll get used to it.
i used to look after a station that captured vast numbers of clips daily ... every once in a while a single clip would be missing audio or video whilst hundreds of clips on either side, on the same or different reels, would capture with no problem ... at the end of the day its just a computer based system and errors do happen
its one clip out of many, just recapture, its not worth your time or trouble stressing out over it -
Merge audio to video clips, end of clip loses audio
This is driving me nuts. After merging audio and video clips, sync to slate using the in points, everything is in sync.
The audio is longer than the video itself. But WAY before the scene ends, the audio mutes. The waveforms are visable but no audio plays. It drop out. It happens to every merged clip I create. I don't use the out points either.
Anyone else have this issue??
If I take an alternate method to sync them in the timeline and create a clip from there, it makes a new sequence clip losing the scene and take metadata. That's not good. Is there a workaround?It happens on every project and different formats. I do use FCP Rescue and that doesn't solve it. I did figure out a work around which involves a few more steps and is more time consuming. Maybe this can help find the problem. Here is the ridiculous workaround steps. We should send this to Apple.
The "--" are the extra steps.
To get a good merged subclip.
Open the audio file and add the 'in point' to the slate.
--Drag audio clip to the timeline.
--Drag the audio clip from the timeline to the browser window.
Merge with video.
Viola. Audio won't drop out. But the waveforms are completely off with the sound.
Next step is to open the merged clips and Make Subclip so you don't have that extra media in the beginning and end. And the waveform seem normal. -
Premiere Element 12 when moving video clips. HELP me Rhonda!
I am currently running Windows 7 (Professional) and I downloaded Premiere Element 12 off Tech Soup so I could make a short video for my company. I am working on a specific project and I have done a considerable amount of editing already. When I try to renegotiate the positions of various clips- an "error" message appears and then the program shuts down. Is my computer incompatible??? HELP! I don't want to lose all the work I have done. Also, I am so desperate I would be willing to buy the software all over again and put it on my mac-laptop but that would be my last resort! Has anyone else encountered this problem?
[Moved from Premiere PRO to Premiere Elements... Mod]Jordne716
Thanks for the reply. Let us see what we can do with what you have.
When I asked about computer resources, I was asking about how much installed and available RAM the computer has, how much free hard drive space, the processor and the clock speed. Most of that you can get by right clicking the word Computer and selecting Properties.
About your alternative plans...
Your Premiere Elements 12 Windows project is not going to work on Premiere Elements Mac (whatever version)
If you export your Premiere Elements 12 project to a .mp4 file (Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD with one of the .mp4 presets), you can import that into a Premiere Elements Mac project. However, that is a whole video which will need trimming to make significant further edits.
No guarantees, but your Premiere Elements 12 Windows project file should open in Premiere Elements 13 Windows. But, work with a copy of the Premiere Elements 12 Windows project as a safety net.
This is what I would like you to do.
Can you open that Premiere Elements 12 Windows project that shutdown when you were moving clips around in the Edit area of the program? If so, open to the Expert workspace. Have you placed audio transitions in the Timeline content? If so, remove them and determine if the problem is gone, is the same, or gets worse.
Also, what specific media were you moving around when the crash took place? If you can open the project, can you delete and re-import the file(s) in question? What Timeline tracks are you using and which were involved in this incident?
I am particularly interested in the answer to the last question to use the answer as a point to start the troubleshooting.
Please let me know if you need clarification on the above.
We will be watching for further developments and will keep close track of your posts.

How to get audio into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?
How to get audio into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?
I have filmed an air show with a very good camera JVC pro
And when I pick up the clips in Adobe Premiere Elements 12, it works too, but only without sound.
I think I tried everything for 4 days now.
Sound in my computer works perfectly
I go to where the video files are located and try to run them in VLC or in Nero Kwik so it works fine with both audio and video.
I have checked the sound card.
Yes, I have tried everything so now I'm so tired of this lousy so I'm ready to throw this program at the dump.
It's not normal if you will keep on producing audio for over 4 days at Adobe
The old Elements 9 worked fine. Offer some of would consider developing it again. I do not know how I should do.
My name is Thore Hult
live in Karlshamn in SwedenThore Hult
On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 working on? Have you updated it from 12 to 12.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
For your immediate problem.
What is the model/settings for the JVC camera that recorded you video. I want to get at the properties of your source video including the file extension.
Since you are getting video, but no audio, please download and install the free codec utility named GSpot to see what is shows
for your Audio Name and Status.
http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
The other properties of the file there would also be of interest.
When you import your source file into the project, do you see any "conforming" activity going in a progress bar at the bottom right corner of the workspace?
If so, do you wait for it to complete before you move forward in the project?
Can you get sound in any of your Premiere Elements projects with this current JVC file or other?
Can we assume that your troubleshooting has included checking
a. Volume control within the project
b. Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO
Let us start here and then we can decide what next if necessary.
Thanks.

I lost my audio on Adobe Premiere Elements 12
I lost my audio on Adobe Premiere Elements 12.
All my other programs are working OK
II think one of my settings as changed (my be because of a update)
I did a reboot a number of times( didn't help )
I am running Windows 8
Can you help?R.E. Day
Given you have Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8 64 bit.
Did you update from 12 to the 12.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update?
What update were you referring to when you said you thought the problem might be related to an update?
We need a lot more details of "lost audio Premiere Elements 12"
Does that mean that, when you import video with linked audio into a project, you only SEE the video portion in Project Assets. No audio file seen in Audio Track 1?
Or, does that mean that, when you import video with linked audio into a project, you see the audio file but it has no sound?
There is another possibility. This is a known issue that is affecting some where sound is lost from the numbered audio tracks and soundtrack when a narration track is created using the program's Narration Tool and added to the project. Is that what is happening in your situation?
Also, did you check the Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO setting, Input and Output?
Lots of questions, lots of answers needed to sort through to get to the core of the matter.
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thank you.

Hello,
today I bought Premiere Elements 12. I want to edit records and export them with Premiere Elements 12. I recognized that the audio is extremely asynchronus to the video. I can't work with that.
I read that Shadowplay records with 59,34 FPS or so...maybe that is the problem?
Regards
David G.Wectonic
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? Have you updated 12 to the 12.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update? If not, please do so.
From what I have read about the ShadowPlay recorder, you are probably outputting from it 1080p video with H.264 video compression. What is the file extension?
Your report of a frame rate of 59.34 frames per second for your video suggests that the recorder is recording with a variable frame rate. Premiere Elements has problems with a variable frame rate - problems could be out of sync audio to not being able to import the file at all.
As a troubleshooting aid at this point, please import your problem video into HandBrake https://handbrake.fr/ and export it as a H.264.mp4 file with a constant frame rate of
59.94 frames per second. It is quick and easy. If you have any problems doing that, I will post a step by step HandBrake how to for the task. Then import this HandBrake converted file into Premiere Elements project and determine if problem is gone.
Mini Preview
Also, please let us know the bitrate settings for ShadowPlay for both video and audio. How much of the ShadowPlay recording can be user customized.
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thanks.

Adobe Premiere Elements - Red Line / Green Line
I have spent this past weekend working with Premiere Elements on my Mac (just purchased it along with Photoshop Elements 9). I can't seem to find a manual for it so so far I have been forced to work with it based on intuition. Thus far, I have been surprisingly successful. However, I do have some questions.
I have imported some videos that were previously ripped from DVDs into Organizer. I have place several clips into the timeline and made mostly edits like cuts and removal of audio files attached to the video files (no effects and no transitions). I have also imported an audio file (formatted in apple AAC) into the timeline that was purchased from iTunes. What I noticed is that there is a red line on top of the timeline and I am not sure why (not even sure what that means). While I'm editing, the program runs pretty sluggishly (ie. scubbing through the timeline is very blocky and not smooth) but so far it has not crashed. Also, the video quality while viewing on the timeline is somewhat poor. However, once I render the project to a .mov file it looks great and all the edit points I have done is on point and synced with the music.
Can someone provide insight for a newbie?The red line indicates that the content under the timeline is not "native". When you click on the timeline and then hit the "Enter" key, you will see a progress bar that converts this area under the red bar to native properties and turns the bar green. Native to what? Native to the project presets.
When you launch a new project you will notice a small information under the project name etc, that looks something like "NTSC DV" or "Full HD 5.1 1920x1080i 30" etc. This is the settings in which the clips are to be imported. If you are sure about the exact properties of the clips that you will import and edit, I suggest you change these project settings manually when you create the new project. Else, all you have to do is launch a project with ANY setting, and enter a single file from what you have imported to the organizer. The switch to a correct project will happen automatically. Hopefully the other clips that you have for this edit session are from the same camera/with same properties. When native, there are no Red/Green bars above the clips.
The other thing about the red/green bar is that if any property of the clip is altered, (adding effect, changing opacity, changing the duration, placing any other asset above the clip etc) the bar WILL turn red. That is when you might see the playback issues. To correct this, you must render and then once green the playback will be really smooth.
And regarding your query about changing the project while you are editing, you cannot do that in Premiere Elements. If you have started editing in a particular project setting, you can save it, and continue editing later. But when you reopen the same project, the settings will be the same as the ones you created/switched to the first time.
