How do I prevent ExporterAVI.prm from crashing in Adobe Premiere Elements?

It has been crashing in both newly installed versions 11 and 12. The workaround has been to rename this plugin in order for Premiere to start. However, I seem to require this plugin for DV imports to work (from a mini-DV camcorder). I don't get "DV" project settings, if I use any other project setting, Premiere crashes after importing the DV footage. I assume it has to do with codecs on my PC. I'm runnning Windows 8, it has been the same with Windows 7 before. Any ideas how to track down the issues are highly appreciated. Thanks.
Peter

*** SOLVED ***
Thank you all, I finally solved the problem. A broken Codec caused ExporterAVI to crash upon start up of Premiere. Renaming the plugin solved that crash but of course disabled AVI as file format for saving. The codec is from "Matrox", I have no idea why or how it got installed. I used an application called G Spot to inspect codecs, but G Sport reported an error when loading codecs (time out). G Spot is well behaved reporting a time out, Premiere just crashes, that's the difference.
Anyway, after removing the broken codec, I could enable ExporterAVI again. Then also the project setting for DV files became available, which obviously depend on the ExporterAVI plugin to be loaded.
Thanks again

How do I recover files after an unexpected crash on adobe premiere elements?

Hi,
so I use Adobe Premiere Elements 12 on a Mac OS X version 10.7.5. I was editing a project when I got a warning about my start up disk being 'almost full'. I ignored it and continued working. A couple of minuted later elements 'crashed unexpectedly'. I had done a lot of work on that particular project and desperately need to recover it. When I open the project in elements now it shows me the work I had completed the last time I edited the project, but none of the stuff I was doing before the crash.
Is it possible to recover the files? Please help!
Thank you

Were you working with the AutoSave feature on? If so, have you tried to open the latest of the AutoSave files by right clicking it, selecting Open With, and then Premiere Elements 12 (that is the Premiere Elements 12 Windows way). Does that work for your with Premiere Elements 12 Mac?
The AutoSave feature has two components - one defines how many "snapshots" of the project you will have at a given time and the other defines how often the snapshot will be taken. When the number of snapshots exceeds the number of "how many snapshots of the project you set for a given time", the oldest will be bumped off and so on goes the process - new, bumping off oldest one.
From what you wrote, it sounds like you are working off the latest AutoSave. If so, how many other AutoSaves do you have besides the one you opened?

How did you made videos fullscreen on YouTube with adobe premiere elements 10?

Hello,
is there a way to made videos fullscreen on YouTube with adobe premiere elements 10?
Sorry for my poor english and thank you

The black bars are most commonly caused by having Source Footage, that does not match the Project's Frame Size.
This could be a pixel x pixel issue, with say 1280 x 720 Footage in a 1920 x 1080 Project, or it could be a difference in the Pixel Aspect Ratio. That is most common in SD material, between Standard 4:3 and Widescreen 16:9, but can happen with 1440 x 1080 Anamorphic, which does not use Square Pixels, or PAR = 1.0. With most other HD material and Projects, the PAR will more likely be 1.0, or Square Pixels. It could also stem from the Export/Share settings, having a different Aspect Ratio, i.e. pixels x pixels.
This ARTICLE addresses black bars in the Program Monitor.
Good luck,

1.) Checked for updates, said none were avaiable.
2.) We are using a Sony Handycam HDR-CX550V. Connects fine to premiere, i beleive it shoots in HD quality because when we upload it to youtube it has the sybol up there.
3.) I have edited 3 videos fine in the last 3 days. It has given be error messages, program has froze, and other things, but in the end they have been edited and 2 were brought onto our youtube account even though a few times it quit unexpectadly. We went to the camera store where we purchased BOTH the camera and premiere and he ensured us the 2 would work fine together because we were going to get a Mac and use iMovie but we stayed with the current laptop and got adobe premiere. The project is set up in the NTS- DV (something like that) format where I saw on one of your earlier forums that they should.
4.) All videos have been rendered. I use to use FinalCute Express so this program is easy to use. Progam is very simple and nothing is complicated. I have visited all the tutorials and I can edit fine its just the program seems to not be responding.
In the last 20 minutes, it has come to the point where it wont even work. I have tried to edit my 4th video (about 10 mins long) and it was been sucessfully imported where I located it in a media file on our H:. But, when I drag it into the timeline I know its not rendered but when I do it the program completely freezes and I have to force quit and end now.

How do I keep my videos from being squeezed in Premiere Elements 12?

I was using one dell laptop and moved over to another dell laptop and suddenly Premiere Elements 12 was squeezing my projects. I am unable to adjust the project settings and when I use the interpret footage option, my videos play horribly. What is the best answer for this? How can I fix my settings for PE12 since all my footage comes from the same source?

CKENN19
Thanks for the follow up. It sounds like you are OK, but let me review a few things to make sure.
Assuming NTSC setup...Windows
1. If you are capturing DV data with a firewire connection into Premiere Elements 12/12.1, your source media can be DV Standard 4:3 or DV Widescreen 16:9 depending on your camera recording settings.
Premiere Elements 11, 12, and 13 are set up to take over setting the project preset automatically based on the properties of the first video dragged to the Timeline. When it cannot do the job for whatever reason, it does not give you the closest fit to what you require for your particular source. It gives you its default 1080i30 (1920 x 1080 @ 29.97 interlaced frames per second).
If your camera has DV data 4:3, then you set the project preset manually beforehand to NTSC DV Standard. If your camera has DV data 16:9, then you set the project preset manually beforehand to NTSC DV Widescreen. Both Standard and Widescreen have the same frame size, that is, 720 x 480. In the case of the Widescreen, there is a 16:9 flag which stretches the video for display after encoding (to 856 x 480).
You should not have to be using Interpret Footage to get the appropriate aspect ratio when you have done DV data 4:3 or 16:9 capture firewire into Premiere Elements Capture Windows. That concerns me if you do.
Also important is that you are putting DV AVI type 2, not type 1, on your Timeline in the DV data capture firewire process. If Premiere Elements is part of this capture process, DV AVI type 2 is what you should have.
Please consider the above and then let us know, when your schedule permits, if you are OK with the information
Thank you.

How do I delete the audio from a video in Premiere Elements 10?

I took a video on the beach and all you hear is loud, irritating wind roar. I would like to delete the original sound and then add in musical tract on the project. Thank you for any help. I have searched the settings and right-clicked to no avail.

Rajrae
Sounds like progress. So pleased with your spirit of exploration and experimentation in dealing with the Premiere Elements learning curve. Congratulations.
But, the whys for an issue keep me asking. You should be able to right click that Premiere Elements Timeline video and see the pop up with the option to delete the audio. What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running on...Windows or Mac?
When I right click the video on my Premiere Elements 10 Windows 7 64 bit Timeline, I see the following:
You seem to be finding Show Properties in that pop up. What else is missing from it besides Delete Audio?
By any chance are you working in the Sceneline of the program instead of the Timeline. That might explain all this. In both the Timeline and Sceneline, you can get Show Properties, but it is only in the Timeline that you see the Delete Audio choice in the pop up.
Please check it out. This will be a great addition to your learning curve if this proves to be the missing point.
Thanks for the follow ups.

Crashes in Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0....please help!!!

Hi there,
I am hoping someone can help me out - this is the first time I have posted on one of these but I don't know what else to try and I am very close to throwing my laptop out of the window.
The problem in a nutshell is that my Premiere Elements 4.0 crashes all the time! Whenever I try to cut or trim a video clip on the timeline or move it, it crashes. And if I try to export the timeline it begins to export but then crashes and give me an error like "unable to compile movie, unknown error" which is not terribly helpful.
I thought it might be my actual laptop so I wiped EVERYTHING off it back to when I first bought it and got it serviced which made the laptop run really smoothly but I still have the same problem with Premiere. I am at the end of my tether and I called tech support but they said they don't offer tech support on 4.0 and that I should go on the forums.
And here I am!
So can anyone help at all or is it the end for me and premiere?
Look forward to hearing from anyone.
Oh….please bear in mind I am just a regular user and am not a techie so won't understand complicated solutions - step by step is the key I think!
Thanks in advance
Sonny
My laptop is a Sony Viao, with a intel Core2 duo processor 2.10 ghz, 4gb of memory, 200gb hdd, running vista home premium, and I have been using this premiere for well over a year without problems.
I have all updates for Vista, Quicktime, etc.

If it has worked perfectly for a year then something else must have changed. Perhaps a video card driver (if you have Nvidia then read the many forum posts) or a new camcorder with a different video output.
You say that you have all the latest updates. Does this mean that after you reinstalled windows you then updated windows and all drivers? If so then, if the fault is driver related, you will have reinstalled the offending driver. You may have to reinstall windows and then install PRE4 next - before updating windowss and drivers. If that works, you should perform updates one at a time to see which is bringing down PRE.
The other possibility is that maybe your hardware is developing a fault e.g. memory.

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 do I copy and paste from Word into Adobe Photoshop Elements 13

using Windows 7 Professional SP1, Microsoft Office 365 (Office 2013).
I can copy the text within a word document, without a problem.
However, the paste options are greyed out and "Ctrl"+"V" does not work.
Am I missing something, as I can't work out how to copy the text from word, to use as a basis for my photo shop document.

How do I Export Raw images from Iphoto to Adobe Photo Elements 4

I recently purchased Photo elements 4 because I could import images from Iphoto in Raw format and work with them. Everything I have read and the instructional video sent to me by Adobe make it look and sound very easy but so far I have had no success.
I have been able to open Bridge and view photos from Iphoto so it seems to me that everything that I have in Iphoto is automatically transfered to Elements 4. However I can not find my Raw images. What am I doing wrong or failing to do and is there some logical sequence that I have to follow to import Raw images.
I am using a Nikon D200 and just to be safe I have been shooting so the images are saved both in JPEG and RAW.
Thanks for any help you can provide

dakota8,
iPhoto and Adobe Bridge are incompatible, so you need to decide which one you want to use (for which photos). iPhoto is a database, with many flexible features for organizing your library and finding your photos. Bridge is a file browser with some organizing capabilities. You absolutely should not use Bridge or any other application (Finder included) to browse the files inside your iPhoto Library folder, as it will damage the iPhoto database. To verify, click on iPhoto's Help and read the section "About using the iPhoto Library."
If you want to keep your RAW files in iPhoto, then you'll need to open them from iPhoto. As Dave E said, this can be done by setting the iPhoto pref to export RAW files. You also need to set PE 4 as the external editor in iPhoto's preferences. With this setup, you can select photos using iPhoto, open the RAW files into PE 4, then edit. Now comes the wrinkle in the workflow. Normally, you would do a Save to cause your edited file to be saved back into the iPhoto library. This Save, not Save As, requires that the filename and extension stay the same. Works great with jpeg files. However, once you edit the RAW, the extension (and file format) must change. Save will not work, because any save at this point is treated like a Save As. So you have to Save As to a folder OUTside of your iPhoto Library, and then import it in as a new file. There will be no link between the edited version and its unedited RAW file. You could organize inside iPhoto to display the edited file beside its original RAW, or keep separate rolls for the originals and edits.
With that in mind, you might not want to save the RAW files in iPhoto at all. You could create your own filing system for them, which you would browse using Bridge. Upload using Image Capture to save your files to a folder of your choice. Once you edit the RAW files and save as another format, you could them import into iPhoto for cataloging or further editing. You'll just have to find the system that works best for you.
BTW, don't save your edited RAW files as Adobe RAW. I tried and discovered that iPhoto refuses to import them at all.
I have been able to open Bridge and view photos from Iphoto so it seems to me that everything that I have in Iphoto is automatically transfered to Elements 4.
There's no transferring involved at all. Bridge is rooting directly inside the iPhoto Library folder. Did I mention that it's best to avoid this?
However I can not find my Raw images.
When you import a file it is saved into the Originals folder. Your RAW files are there, along with any video clips you may have imported.
iPhoto automatically creates a jpeg version of your RAW files and stores it in the Modified folder. It has to do this in order to display the picture on your screen. With video clips, a jpeg of the first frame is created for display purposes.
I am using a Nikon D200 and just to be safe I have been shooting so the images are saved both in JPEG and RAW.
If you import both versions into iPhoto, then you have
Originals - RAW
Modified - jpeg
Originals - jpeg
(Modified - jpeg - if you edit the jpeg version or if they are auto-rotated to portrait orientation)
I don't shoot in RAW, so I can't really comment about which workflow would be the most efficient. I just played with it long enough to realize that there is no easy way to do it.
Regards.
