How do I import Pinnacle Studio 15 videos into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?

I no longer have Pinnacle Studio after replacing crashed computer. I installed Premier Elements 12, but cannot figure out how to import all of my old videos.
Jim Engles

ATR,
Thanks for your interest and time. Sorry I did not explain myself initially.
The files I was trying to import were saved as Pinnacle Studio “project” files. So they must be .stx, as you say. In Windows Explorer I cannot determine the file extension; all I can see is the project folder name and subfolder names.
Now that I think about it, when I was last working in Pinnacle at least two years ago, I had the option on how to save my files and I saved them as “project.” In fact all of the backed up videos are under an overarching folder named my video projects.
I did find two backed up files with an .avi extension, which did import.
So the best solution would be to find a computer to borrow that has Pinnacle installed and open and save the files to export as .avi.  If that doesn’t work, I will try to find a trial version of Pinnacle to use.
Years ago a coworker told me to buy Adobe Premiere instead of Pinnacle. I wish I had listened.
Thanks,
Jim Engles

  • How to remove red eye from you video with adobe premiere elements?

    I would be greatful if someone could let me know how to remove red eye from a video, which I will be using for my acting reel. Thank you!

    What version of Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system is it running?
    Do you have an integrated set of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements (such as 10/10, 11/11)?
    How long is this person with the red eye viewed?
    There are two possibilities that I can think of, but I would have to work it through with the actual footage and adapt accordingly.
    1. Keying and color correction.
    2. In Premiere Elements, do a freeze frame (in Freeze Frame dialog, Edit in Photoshop Elements after Insertion + Insert in Movie Option + adjustment of duration of the Freeze Frame bmp).
    In Photoshop Elements, Red Eye Tool if possible or other color correction tool there.
    How did you ever get red eye in video?

    I doubt it will do graphics and layout, but maybe, depending on your version of Indesign you may hit lucky (but probably not).

  • How to transfer the content of the video to Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 for editing ?

    Hi there,
    I have an old video camera that is still working. That video camera uses a Hi 8 tape. The tape is bigger that the current DV tape. The size of the tape is something like a tape cassette.
    How to transfer the content of the video to Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 for editing ? Being an old video camera, the output doesn't have any firewire or USB connector. In fact the only output is has is the Yellow, Red & while connector (is this referred to as composite).
    So, how do I input this Yellow, Red & White cable into the PC (or rather into Adobe Pro CS3) ?
    Any established hardware/convertor to recommend ?
    Thanks

    Ryan,
    For "composite out," only you will need an A-D "bridge" to Capture from that camera. Grass Valley/Canopus offers two really good ones, the ADVC-110 and the ADVC-300. There are others and also PCI A-D capture cards, but the Canopus units get very good reviews.
    One other workflow would be to hook your older camera to a digital video camera with passthrough (not all have this and it is being discontinued fairly rapidly in consumer cameras) and then doing the Capture through that digital video camera via FireWire. You will not have Device Control, but can easily start/stop via the mouse and one hand on the switches, or on a remote.
    Good luck,

  • Importing video into adobe premiere elements11

    why cant i import video from my sony handycam dcr-dvd 403, into adobe premiere elements 11, for editing purposes?    The software is not even reckonizing that the camers is connected to the computer.

    I will await your review of initial post where I suggested ripping VOBs from the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc in Premiere Elements 11 Windows. I still think that is the preferred approach for what your described.
    You might be interested in this online article that I came across just now in which someone with your brand and model camera presented the same type of issue.

  • How do you import "MVI_  file #  .THM" from "Canon Powershot SX1 IS" into Adobe Premiere Elements

    When I tried to import a   MVI_  "file #"  .THM  file from a "Canon Powershot SX1 IS" camera into Adobe Premiere Elements, I received the following message: "This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed."
    How do  I resolve this issue?
    Thanks for any assistance that you can provide.
    John

    Steve,
    Thanks for your help.  You are correct that there is another file with the same name without the ".THM" extension.
    What I said was incorrect.  I was trying to import the file without the ".THM" extension and getting the afore mentioned message.
    However, I just discovered that this MVI_ file is a "Quick Time Movie" format not an "avi" format.
    Do I need to convert this format or does it have something to do with a codec?
    Thanks,
    John

  • Importing Videos To Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Only Shows Black Screen

    Why is it Importing WMV Videos To Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Only Shows Black Screen.
    Thank You In Advance

    mrtomr4455
    Forget about all the rest until you check out the Announcement at the top of this forum regarding the current 1/2 wmv display related to a recent Windows Update kb file. I missed the wmv part of your initial question by focusing too much on the thread title.
    Here is a copy for your convenience
    Announcement: Windows Update Causes Half of Display to Be Blacked Out
    Hide Details
    MicroSoft has issued an Update for Windows, that is causing problems with Displays. The following is from Talbot McInnis, who tracked down this problem, and offers a fix:
    "MS bulliten MS13-057.  Specifically, on XP kb2834904 and on windows 7 kb2803821 is causing a problem
    For us, it occurs when decoding WMV9 files.  Not all uses of WMV decoding are affected, but I confirmed that when connecting the WMV decode DLL to a sample grabber for RGB32 video, the frames arrive black on top, so that points directly to decoding internals of the WMV Decode dll.
    You can uninstall these windows updates to resolve your problem."
    There are several threads on the problem that this Update is causing on the PrE and PrPro Forums, so one can get more details. So far, there is not another fix from either MS, or Adobe.
    Also, see this Adobe KB Article: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/kb/wmv-files-corrupted-import-or.h tml

    I think that is your answer. Please let us know if that worked for you.

  • How can I embed a self hosted video into Adobe Muse?

    How can I embed a self hosted video into Adobe Muse? I successfully use a Wordpress plugin to post self hosted videos to a Wordpress blog, however I would like to link the same video to a web site built in Muse. I understand that Muse looks for an embed code, however on self hosted video does anyone have any experiences on how that embed code can be obtained?

    There's quite a lot of discussion on this forum about embedding videos.
    So you can use HTML5 video tag to embed self hosted videos that you can insert in Muse through Object -> Insert HTML option. Refer to the following article - http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_video.asp.
    And here's how it would look - http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video_all.

  • 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 Sweden

    Thore 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.

  • Generic error when trying to import iphone vids into adobe premiere elements 9

    I have some videos that were recorded on an iphone 6. They are in .mov format which is supposed to be compatible with my adobe premiere elements 9 but every time I try to import them I get a generic error.

    Okay so I've searched around most of this forum and as much of Google as I could find - I have found similar problems, but nothing exactly the same; and none of the solutions I've found have worked for me. I've seen a lot of people having trouble connecting to the DL server on the file-selection window, but I don't even get that far - an error message just pops up in the middle of my screen - and my error doesn't mention a server, just that it can't connect to AE DL.
    I changed firewall software (which I've wanted to do for months, anyway) and still to no avail.
    As for the "The importer reported a generic error" problem also, I can't find any problems or solutions with After Effects files not being able to be imported.

  • Missing Visuals in video clips (Adobe Premiere Elements 10)

    When I load up my video editting program (Adobe Premiere Elements 10) everything appears fine.
    It's only when i try to load a video into the program that things go buggy.
    The Video Clip appears on the timeline. The Audio works perfectly fine. However, the video, or image for that matter doesn't appear in the "viewing screen" (can't think of the right word
    If I add a video effect to the clip (for example, Auto Color) then the picture becomes visible.
    But, when I then render the clip, the picture disappears once again.
    I'm no expert with computers or programs so i am pretty lost on what's wrong.
    The last time I used the program (which was about a week before New Years Eve, 2013)  it was working perfectly fine. I've used the program for the past year with little to no problems, so I am baffelled as to why this has happened now.
    Any kind of help would be really appreseated
    I even still have the original disc I bought when i first installed the program, so if i need to uninstall then reinstall the program it will be eailly done..
    Thanks in advanse for you help

    CreweOnTheSofa
    Along with the Intel Graphics there is something called "NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M"
    nothing more then that.
    That is probably at the core of your problems, and we need to explore this. My take on this is that you have 2 things going on here.
    1. There is an epidematic of display problems targeted specifically at the Premiere Elements 10 user whose computer uses a NIVIDIA video card. (You have Premiere Elements 10 and one of your video cards is NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M.)
    Typically the drill is to have the version of the video card driver up to date. In this case, the fix is to roll back the driver version far enough not to have the display problem. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has not stepped forward to correct the situation.
    Check out the following link to see what you are up against regarding the NVIDIA side of things.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
    2. On the other side of things, you have an integrated Intel Graphics card as well as the NVIDIA. There can be conflicts when two video cards/graphics cards are involved (independant of the NIVIDIA issue). Typically you see disabling of the integrated card, in your case the Intel Graphics. But, I am not sure where that would lead stability wise.
    You could look at both areas and see if you have displays gains for one or the other. I would look at rolling back the NVIDIA first.
    Please review, and then we can discuss this further.
    Thanks.

  • Importing mp4 files into Adobe Premiere Elements 4

    Hi
    I'm using Adobe Premiere Elements 4 here and am having problems when importing mp4 files. They jump and skip, Flicker Green every now and then and generally just flip out on me.
    Does anyone know what's the problem here and whether there's any specific settings i need to tweak within APE to get it to work properly?
    TIA

    Ok thanks for the info guys
    My original recommendation was to convert these but as mentioned wasn't the most popular option.
    I've found some other threads on here in regards to a similar problem with Samsung cameras and APE 4. These also mention that the files need to be converted to a friendlier format before importing.
    Thanks again

  • Correct video settings for a Nikon D300s to input into Adobe Premiere Elements 10?

    I understand that it is critical when using Adobe Premiere Elements 10 that the video settings of your project match the settings of your camera. I want to upload video from my Nikon D300s DSLR which has the video setting options of 480P (640 x 480), 576P (720 x 576), 720P (1,280 x 720), and 1080i (1,920 x 1,080). I will primarly be making videos either to upload to You Tube, or save on a dvd. Can anyone tell me which would be th right settings for my camera and Premiere?

    It depends on which resolution you're shooting your videos in.
    It looks like that cam shoots in 1280x720 at 24p. There should be a DSLR project setting for that.
    But if the camera shoots in all of the video modes you've listed, you can shoot it in any -- just make sure to select the DSLR project settings that match the video.

  • How do I enter the serial number into Adobe Premiere Elements 11?

    I just installed Adobe Premiere Elements 11 because I was not sure if it is supposed to be Adobe Elements 11 or Premiere. Now I need to enter the serial number but do not know how to get to that point after starting the organizer.

    I only installed Premiere Elements, so far, last night.   Sorry to confuse. I could have said it differently I suppose.
    It has an option to install either one. Now; it said enter the serial  or use trial version with a supposed option to then enter the serial number later. But to know how to get to where to do it? I have opened the program several times to look for it and see no place to enter the numbers. I clicked on each of the icons in my searches.
    I found the new serial numbers one to each. I do not know how to get to where to enter one, unless I uninstall then re-install and then put in the new serial number as I set it up. That, I really don't want to do. I was at the page last night, to enter my redemption code then it showed the serial numbers. For each each one.
