Importing a "pse" file into Premiere Elements

I need to know if I create an album in Premiere Photoshop, why can't I import it into Premiere Elements? A message comes up with "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed" Can I install the correct codec? and from where and how?
Hope someone can help
Thanks Trish

Welcome to the forum.
As Steve G. points out, the PSE file is the PSE Project file, and basically an XML database. This ARTICLE, while addressing PREL (Premiere Elements Project files) will give you some background on Project files in general.
Good luck,

Problem importing some .MOV files into Premiere Elements 11

Hello,
I am trying to import film footage into Premiere Elements 11 and am coming across a rather confusing problem. All of the footage is in .mov format and all of it was taken on the same device on the same day with the same settings.
When I try to import the footage, some files import ok, others will not import at all and I get a message saying 'The importer reported a generic error'. It seems very odd to me that some .MOV files are OK and others are not.
This same footage can easily be imported into Premiere Elements 10 and into Windows Movie Maker - which makes me think the issue is with Premiere Elements 11.
Does anyone have any ideas on this?
Thanks

What model of camcorder is your video coming from and what format and resolution is it? Did you use Premiere Elements to get the video from the camcorder to your computer?
Have you ensured you have the latest version of Quicktime installed on your computer?

Importing project files into Premiere Elements 7

I have created a new project, imported several video clips and then created a video. It was only at the point of creating the video that I reliased that I had not created the project with the correct settings.
Although the video looked fine in the editing window, the final video had black bars at the sides, and above above and below the video, and fairly think black bars. I've tried exporting as different formats, and changing the aspect ratio, but this has not helped. I've attached a jpeg of what the video looks like in Quicktime.
Other video editing software I have used, has the ability to change the project settings after it has been created, and give a warning to the user about possible problems they may encounter by doing so.
This does not appear to be the case with Adobe Premiere Elements 7, and it is extremely frustrating!!
One thing which appears to be possible with Premiere Pro, and was also available on other editing software I have used, is the ability to import projects.
So... does anyone know if it is possible to import a Premiere Elements 7 project file into Premiere Elements 7? The aim here is to create a project with the correct settings, and then import the existing project file into the timeline.
I've tried hacking the project file, which has improved the video slightly, but still not what I was expecting.
Cheers
Paul

This problem should have been picked up by Adobe's test analyst during testing of the product.
I am sorry, but I am not following you on this. There are Presets to match many media types. I am not at all sure how Adobe could anticipate that a user would choose the wrong one.
As I said, PrPro CS4 will both allow you to Import your .PREL (with the caveats mentioned), and work on the Project with Sequence settings to match. Unfortunately, PrE is a much less sophisticated and expensive program, than is PrPro CS4.
I'd be happy to Import your file, in PrPro with the proper Presets, but the rub would be that PrE cannot Open .PRPROJ files, so you still could not edit it.
Sorry, but the first rule of any NLE is to establish Presets that match one's Assets. PrPro CS4 (not before that version) allows one to cover their mistakes a bit, but there is still some work getting the improperly set Sequence's material into a new, properly set Sequence.
If you have access to PrPro CS4, and can finish your Project there, that would be the best. Next would be to create a New Project with the proper Presets and chalk up the lost time as a learning experience.
Sorry ot bear the bad news.
Good luck,

One thing to point out, if you are doing this with the trial. While it is 100% (nothing crippled, or omitted), the trial WILL put a watermark on the finished Project. If you are doing this for work, be aware of that watermark. This http://forums.adobe.com/thread/433730?tstart=0 will give you some tips and background.
Good luck, and I do not want you to be surprised and mad, when you get that watermark.

How do I import an MKV file into Premiere Pro CS6?

How do I import an MKV file into Premiere Pro CS6?

Premiere Pro CS6 doesn't support MKV formats. To import MKV to Premiere Pro CS6, a recommended solution is to convert MKV to AVI.
I've been reading so many different forums on how to convert MKV to AVI. Finally, I summarised three solutions:
First one: HandBrake . This tool is a free and open-source multi-threaded transcoding app. It supports nearly any videos including MKV format and has Mac version and Windows version.
Cons:
1. HandBrake is too professional to handle for most people;
2. It doesn't support MOV as output format.
Second one: there are many third party software which supports converting MKV to AVI. I just test one of them. It's professional yet easy to use and the service is excellent. And there is a step by step guide about how to use this tool .
Cons:
1. Most of them are not free.
Third one: Online-Converter . This kind of converter does a great job on file conversion.
Cons:
1. Like most online converters, the free version of this tool only allows you to convert videos smaller than 100MB. It's too small for video conversion;
2.Your MKV video should be upload to the internet to be converted. This means the risk of pravite information leak is possible.

CANNOT IMPORT FCP .XML FILE INTO PREMIERE PRO CS5

Hi,
Camera used:-Sony Pmw Ex3
Footage       :- XDCAM sp(1440 * 1080i) PAL
Edited in      :-final cut pro 7
Error            :- failed to import .xml file into premiere pro cs5
I tried to import the .xml file into premiere CS5 ,it asked for the media files to relink .whn i linked the .mp4 files it showed the error messege "The selected file cannot be linked becouse it has 2 audio channel(s) and the clip was created with 1 audio channel(s).
then i tried to relink the .mov instead of .mp4 file (which i used in final cut pro on apple machine)i got the error "Codec missing or unavailable"
what should i do???..i almost done all the editing in final cut pro and i bought the adobe coz i thought i can finish all the pending FCP projects in Premier Pro..??

What is the CODEC in your MOV file(s)? MOV is but a "wrapper," like AVI. This ARTICLE will give you some background. It could be that you just need the proper CODEC, or it could be that it is a Mac-only CODEC, and then you will need for the producer to Export in another CODEC, that is PC-compatible.
This ARTICLE will give you some background on CODEC's, in general.

HOW TO GET ZIP PHOTO Files INTO Premiere elements 12

What is the file extension of this zipped folder.....zip or 7-Zip or something else?
If you have a ordinary .zip folder with a .jpeg photo inside it, you should be able to right click the zipped folder, select Extract All from drop down list, and then follow the instructions to get the unzipped folder that you open by double clicking it in order to see and use the photo.
Also, if this photo was edited in Photoshop and has a CMYK color profile, you will not be able to open it in Premiere Elements (any version).
Keep away from the Adobe Reader if all that you have is a zipped folder.
We will be watching for your progress.
Thanks.

How do I import mp4 video files into Premiere Pro Cs4

For sometime now, I've been finding it practically impossible to import video files into premiere Pro cs4 especially mp4 files which happens to be the commonest to me now, as I currently shoot with a Nokia Lumia 920 phone with Windows phone 8 OS. I have tried severally to convert the videos into various other formats using Xilisoft video converter version 7.7.2 and each time I do this, they would either not play fine in cs4 or not import at all.
Please what can I do to be able to import these mp4 files into Cs4 or what format or how do I convert them into a format that would play seamlessly for better editing?
Funny enough, I had once imported video files that were shot with the same phone and they worked well, just wondering why they aren't now.
Please any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks
NKC

I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
Kindly inform us if it works.
Thank you all.
Cheers.

Can I import Mac alias files into Premiere Pro CC?

I am trying to keep my folder structure clean and organized, and am using alias files to gather miscellaneous B-roll video files into a new project folder without removing them from their permenant location and without creating duplicates. Alias files on a mac are basically shortcuts to the original file. FCP 7 and FCP X will import these alias files with no problems, but when I try to import them into Premiere Pro, it says they are unsupported file types. Is there any way to make this work?

Thanks, I was prepared to hear that I would have to make a copy. One note though, is that when i import the alias file into a Final Cut Pro project, it automatically links to the original permanent file location, so if the alias gets deleted, it doesn't matter becuase it is linked to the original.
To answer your question, though, the idea for using alias files is to keep the server clean, so that multiple video editors don't keep copying the same files multiple times into their project folders when they start a new project, and then no one goes back and cleans it up, so you end up with Terabytes of duplicate files on the server. I guess the other option is to train everyone to hunt for the original files themselves and import from that location instead of their own project folders.

I am having horrendous problems importing XD-CAM files into Premiere CS6

Please tell me if there is a fix for importing XD-CAM .MXF files into Premiere CS6 6.0.0. Have tried the import and the media browser functions. The paths look like this:
PROAV
     CLPR
     CMPTR
     EDTR
     USERDATA
Let me know how to do this.....

Also, update your Premiere to 6.0.3 on PC, or 6.0.2 on Mac.
And transfer the entire folder structure from media to hard drive without modifications. That includes any Sony transfer utility, just use Windows to copy stuff straight over.
Then use Media Browser as directed previously
Thanks

Can I import 264 files into Premiere Elements 11

I get a generic error when I attempt to import some 264 files. These were created on a cctv system.

As soon as I saw this post, I searched for the .264 extension in my hard drive. Found two files - could play both of them in Premiere Elements 11 and 12. Just imported them and played them on the expert room timeline.
Pathetic quality of the video though. I am not sure how these are there in my hard drive! Got to check with my friends for whom I have edited some projects if it belongs to them.

Can I import a Captivate 7 file into Premiere Elements 7?

Hi,
I am trying to record my screen so I produce a short explainatory video with it. I have both Premiere Elements 11 and Captivate 7, yet can't seem to open the Captivate file in PE11.
Is this impossible, or am I just being thick?
Thanks
Pat

Hi Pat
Normally what you record in Captivate you edit there. But we have many questions before a coherent answer can be provided.
How did you record? Captivate offers a sort of "stop motion" animation where each screen capture becomes a different slide and you add elements to the slides, then produce the output. It also offers a "full motion" type of capture where you end up with a single video you then edit.
Sounds like you may be using the latter.
What are you hoping to achieve by using something like Premiere Elements to make edits?
Cheers... Rick

Issue with importing H.264 files into Premiere Pro CS6

I have some AVI files that will not import into Premiere Pro CS6 (not trial version). The Gspot utility says they are H.264/MPEG-4 AVC format and that the codec is installed. I can see and play the files in Bridge but when I try to import it says “Unsupported format or damaged file”. I tried importing in CS5.5 and the file imported, however only the audio plays. Why is this happening and how can I import these files?

Premiere does not support H.264 in an avi.
You need to convert first.
