How long movies can Premiere Elements handle?

I made a movie about an hour long, including about seven audio tracks, using movie maker. The program could not handle this file when I tried to put it on DVD. Then I just bought Premiere Elements for the task. I have now made 15 minutes of the movie, including 3 mp3 audio tracks. The program freezes. How big file does the program normally handle. My computer is a brand new Acer 7735.
Is it possible to make about four movies and put them together on the DVD? They can appear as different scenes maybe. It would be easier and less risky.
Thanks for any help.

How long your project can be depends on what you're using for source video, how much power and RAM your computer has and how much free space is on your hard drive.
I've no idea what the specs are for an Acer 7735 are. But, if you're using video that requires a lot of rendering (You'll know because there will be a red line above your clips on the timeline) and you're not rendering them as you work, it's going to eventually choke and crash. To render, press Enter and the program will create video files for your non-DV footage, the red line will turn green and your computer will run much more efficiently.
What kind of camcorder is your video coming from and how are you getting it into your computer?

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.

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,

How can I move my Premiere elements 8 from my old pc to my new imac?

How can I move my Premiere elements 8 from my old pc to my new imac?

tenfootprints
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.
Please explain with more details.
Thanks.

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.

How do I get premiere elements 13 to read the video of my .mov files?

I am working on a PC. How do I get premiere elements 13 to read the video of my .mov files? I hear the audio but don't see any video.Thank you.

phyllism
Thanks for the reply. Glad that QuickTime install resolved the Premiere Elements 13/13.1 video playback problem.
When you double click any of the thumbnails for your .mov file in the Elements Organizer 13/13.1, does the Elements Organizer 13/13.1's player open to play back the .mov file contents for both video and audio?
You wrote
in the browser, the preview is an audio file, not a QT preview.
I was not sure if you were just going by what appears in the thumbnail, namely film strip with music note, or whether you had gone through the actual playback there. In the Apple Pro Res footage that I have, I get the same thumbnails that you are seeing for Windows Explorer. In Elements Organizer 13/13.1, the thumbnail for my Apple Pro Res file is just a film strip on gray.
I think what you are seeing is "normal" for the situation. But, please verify your observation with 13 updated to 13.1 if you have not done that already.
Thanks.

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.

Can Premiere Elements read .vob files?

I have some .vob files that I generated from an old VHS tape. I want to convert them to mpg or some other format so I can edit them and post them on the web. Can Premiere Elements do this?
Thanks!

If you used a VHS/DVD deck, you may have an issue with the first VOB, because it will also contain Menus and navigation instructions, plus the first part of the MPEG-2 AV file. This ARTICLE will give you some background. With a 100% DVD-compliant (very important) VOB, PrE from at least version 4 up to version 8, will Import those, with few issues. Unfortunately, most VHS/DVD decks do not create 100% DVD-compliant discs, due to how they handle the Menus and navigation. This then becomes a YMMV situation.
Good luck,
Hunt

How to change \Adobe\Premiere Elements\12.0\Encoded Files location to another drive?

Hello. I am using Premiere Elements 12. I am not able to burn blueray disk because I have insufficient disk space. I am using SSD drive so I need to move Adobe\Premiere Elements\12.0\Encoded Files location to another drive. How can I do this?

tolppa
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12/12.1 running on? For now, assuming Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit....
In the Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Expert workspace, go to Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disc and set the location for the category
named Disc Encoding.
Please let us know if that works for you.

Ok, how do you deactivate Photoshop in old computer?
Is it possible then to read in Photoshop with license code in to the new computer?
Is it so that when you have deactivated photoshop in old computer with internet access, it is possible to read in it on the new computer with internet access cause adobe then can see that Photoshop is not installed anywhere else?

How long I can record a voice memo in my iphone 5s, how long I can record a voice memo in my iphone 5s

how long I can record a voice memo in my iphone 5s, how long I can record a voice memo in my iphone 5s

Thanks Caramby. I actually found another work-around
Here's how to copy the voice memo to your laptop (and then email it if you need to):
With iTunes open on the Voice Memo folder of your device (an iPhone 4s in my case), simply drag the required file from iTunes and onto the desktop of your pc/laptop. It won't remove the file from your device but simply make a copy. Then you can play the file from your pc/laptop (through Quicktime) as the file is in AAC format. You can also attach the file to an email for sending.
Hope this helps someone else.

How long charactors can stored in 'STRING' type?

HI
I'm just curious how long charactors can stored in 'string' type.
and if there is limit number to store what kind of type is unlimited length type?
and is it possible send a parameter page to page with 'form' 'post' way unlimited length of string?
and is there any type of DB field which is save last number of records automatically when one record is inserted like MANDT?
MANDT is client number though.
Regards.

Here is what ABAP key word documentation says about string
The elementary data type STRING is similar to data type C and refers to a variable-length string. Accordingly, the elementary data type XSTRING is similar to data type X and refers to a variable-length byte sequence.
In contrast to a C or X field, the length of a string is not static but variable and adjusts itself to the current field content at runtime. Dynamic memory management is used internally. Strings can have any length.
The initial value of a string is an empty string with length 0. A structure containing a string is seen as deep. A deep structure cannot be used like a C field. Strings can be displayed in the ABAP Debugger and used in the ABAP Dictionary.
It is not yet possible to use strings in screens or database tables. However, strings can be stored in database tables as clusters using EXPORT and transferred using IMPORT.
As far as I know the limit is 4 Giga Byte which equals more or less no limit. I donnot expect that you will meet this limit in practice. Its very likely that will run out of memory before you reach this limit.
In short there is no limit to the data stored in STRING var but the system memory has a limit....
This can be proved with the below program:
For the program system dumps with mess.
"Unable to fulfil request for 127683972 bytes of memory space. "
here's the test prog.:
TABLES ekko.
DATA testmax TYPE string.
DATA z(16) TYPE i.
SELECT * FROM ekko.
CONCATENATE testmax ekko INTO testmax.
z = strlen( testmax ).
IF z = 63841496.
BREAK-POINT.
ENDIF.
ENDSELECT.

How do I migrate premiere elements 12 to a new computer

How do i migrate premiere elements 12 to a new computer.

What is the computer systems are involved in your question? Windows to Windows, Windows to Mac, Mac to Windows, Mac to Mac?
What is your intent...Premiere Elements on both computers or just the new one.
Major consideration is Adobe allowing the activated purchased serial number for a given version on no more than 2 of your computers. Remember there is a difference between Deactivate and uninstall. You deactivate first and then uninstall if you want to keep the activated purchased serial number per version count to 2.
If you are planning on opening Premiere Elements 12 Windows projects in Windows computer 1 in Premiere Elements 12 Windows on Windows computer 2, then certain factors need to be considered so that you do not end up with serious media disconnect problems on the new computer. Best use Project Archiver Copy Project Option and transfer of the resulting Copied Folder (via USB Flash Drive) to the second computer. The following will give you some ideas about the consideration involved....

How to move some xml element and its content to a new frame

How to move some xml element and its content to a new frame.

Hi Chinnadk,
Sorry my code its comment some lines. Now only I check the forum thread, you just try one more time.
#target InDesign;
#include "/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe InDesign CS5.5/Scripts/XML Rules/glue code.jsx"
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;

If Apple has not received your phone, obviously it can't even be evaluated for warranty purposes. Have you tried calling AppleCare to verify whether they have received the phone or not?
