Jumpy video playback in PSE 9 organizer

Just upgraded tp PSE 9 and installed in new laptop with faster processor. Now video clips seem jumpy as if buffering in organizer. Any suggestions? Already tried checking compatability settings for PSE 9 and Quicktime player.

Elements 3.0.2 jumpy video playback in monitor

i am using premiere elements 3.0.2 and get really bad jumpy video in the monitor window. this is for very short mpeg4 clips that play beautifully in other media players on my laptop e.g. zune software - so this is NOT a computer hardware issue.
i am using an xacti camera that shoots 720p hd at 30fps and i have set all the project settings correctly - i am shooting 720p at a high bit rate.
any clues on what is causing the jumpiness?
thanks
andrew

i rendered a section of the timeline using the enter key - that gave me smooth playback. it's disappointing that premiere 3 wont play mpeg4 hd smoothly without this.
next i outputed the whole project to mp2. i am not clear why it wouldn't allow me to output to an mp4 hd format. what i am finding is that this software has tons of limitations with respect to editing hd
in mp4.
any clues on whether 7.0 is improved in this department?

Jumpy video playback from iPhone 5 to Mac Book Pro

Hi
I recently took some footage on my iPhone 5 and downloaded onto my 2007 Mac Book Pro via iPhoto. Unfortunately, mid download iPhoto became unresponsive and I had to Force quit.
After restarting iPhoto I saw that the videos had not been downloaded so I started the process again. It was a seemingly successful download so I deleted the videos from my iPhone.
Upon playback all the video's are jumpy. Other older video's all ready in the library are fine.
It seems all the info is in there as each time I play a video back I see different parts of the video ie: the jumps are not all in the same place each time.
Is it a playback 780 v 1080 issue?
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Mark

What causes jumpy video playback

I've noticed that some clips in my (iMovie HD6) jump around. Could it be that the tape (I use Sony mini DV) Premium) is slightly sticking or what else could cause the problem.
Please help. Thanks.

In the top middle of the Canvas and Viewer is a percentage button. Open it and make sure that "Fit to Window" has been selected.
If it hasn't you can tell because there will be blue scroll bars along the bottom and side of the window.

Windows 10 Video playback issues

I have an HP Pavilion g6 and currently use Windows 8.1 OS. I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and had major problems playing videos coded into my own website and on other main stream websites too - YouTube videos were not such an issue. Depending on which internet browser I used, I would either experience a dark green screen and perfect audio or black screen with perfect audio or most frequently, on Chrome, I was gettng hesitant/jumpy video playback and a loud buzzing noise on audio. Neither Microsoft Support nor Windows Support were able to help me and the final piece of advice was to go back to my old OS, which I have done, and wait for an any future updates!! Great help! Has anyone else experienced this issue and have a solution? I have tried a number of suggestions, including changing the settings option to gpu rendering from software rendering but no joy. I'm not a particularly technical sort of person so please go easy on me with your replies. Many thanks Steve

Just wanted to circule back and close the loop. My issue have been resolved. It was the driver for the audio. After updating all of the driver (via Intel and HP) nothing appeared to work and I virtually went through all of the devices and check the driver. It was then that I noticed that IDT High Definition audio codec was very old, dated back to 2012. So I did a little research and came upon this post (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_devices/idt-high-definition-audio-codec-not-working-on/570a5038-e48e-43f3-af75-95da61447c87?auth=1) The instruction from 3Juan was very specific and solved by problem. It's as follow. I had a same problem on HP Envy 23 1080jp All in one desktop PC.I can solved as following.1. Select IDT High Definition Audio CODEC on Device Manager.2. Select Driver tab.3. Click Update Driver... button.4. Select -> Browse my computer for driver software.5. Select -> Let me pickup a list of device drivers on my computer.6. Select High Definition Audio Device (Not IDT High Def... this is important.) and click Next. Appears Warning message, but reply Yes.7. ! Windows has successfully update your driver software.Key is step 6. Cheers!

PSE 8 - VIDEO PLAYBACK WON'T WORK

I created a project and was in the later stages of editing. I added a variety of video clips, photos, transistions, etc. All along the way, I was able to playback the video I was creating either throught the main window or if I opened up individual clips. I even burned a draft DVD to play on the TV and had no issues. Now, when I open the same project in PSE 8 and click play nothing happens. I open another project that worked in the past and had the same results, no video playback. The icon changes from |> to = when I click the playbutton. The video just doens not play in edit or organize mode. Although, the video did playback a little jerky before this no play problem occured. The video did play with sound that I added either through the video track or something I added.
I am using a HP M380N computer with Windows Xp Sp3, 3Gb RAM, 10GB available on hardrive(?), NVIDIA FX 5200 video card.
Any advice to solve problem of no playback and jerky playback when I can resume what I was able to do in the past....thanks Gary

10GB available on hardrive(?),
This is not really enough to load the program, and open a Project. You need between 30 - 50GB of defragmented free space.
The reason that you could probably playback before, was that you had more room. Now, you have filled your HDD to near total capacity.
I would clear about 30 - 50GB of space, or add additional HDD's, and allocate them differently. See this ARTICLE.
When a HDD gets to about 70% capacity, it begins to slow. the closer to 100%, the more likely that the HDD will fail, and at the very best, you are mechanically stressing the HDD, as the heads have to travel over the entire diameter of the platters.
If you still have issues, after cleaning up the HDD, quite a bit, please offer the full details of the Assets and the Project.
Good luck,
Hunt

Problem importing video file to PSE Organizer

I use both PE7 and PSE7 and have been steadily importing my video files using PSE7's "organizer" but have encountered a problem with one particular file.
I use the PSE7 "Get photos and videos" menu and when I select this file the computer seems to "hang" and then close PSE7 without any error message. Other video files (.avi) created in exactly the same way can be imported without this problem (although oddly some do seem to take rather a long time for PSE7 to "process"). The offending file is quite large (1.1GB) but I have not had this problem with other files even larger than this.
Interestingly, I can import the file into my catalog using PE7 (usimg the "Get media" menu) but if I do that it subsequently creates a problem in PSE7. When I try to open up the Organizer in PSE7 after importing the offending video file using PE7, the PSE7 Organizer appears normally but with a message "creating thumbnails" at the bottom of the screen. This lasts for 10 seconds or so and then the programme shuts down without any error message.
I think I must have a "poison file". In this situation what should I do? Like many other "clips" already imported, the offending file was created from processing material on a Hi-8 (analogue) tape using the "pass-through" conversion technique. I could I suppose therefore simply repeat the process as I still have the original tape but wondered if there is a better (easier) solution.
This is proving a really useful forum so thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Some thoughts
1 -- You say this is an avi file created from processing material on a Hi-8 analog tape using pass-through, so I think that it is probably a DV-AVI file. What software did you use to capture the DV-AVI file to your computer ? (perhaps Premiere Elements 7 or Windows Movie Maker)?
2 -- I suspect that your realistic options will be determined by whether Premiere Elements 7 can process this file or not. So that is what I would try first.
Can you place that clip on the PRE 7 Timeline and then Export it to a different file (this would be a new DV-AVI file.)? OR - What is at the very front of the problematic clip? If you don't need the content at the front, I would try trimming off the contents at the front of the clip.(because that is what would be used to create the thumbnail), then Export to a new DV-AVI file.
However if the problem turns out to be with the control information stored within that specific avi file and Premiere Elements can not process this file, then repeating the conversion process for that specific file may be the solution.
3 -- FYI - You will probably need to delete that problematic file from your PSE catalog. Not sure if you will be able to do that from Photoshop Elements or if it shuts down too soon.
4 -- FYI - Despite the fact that your problem happens in Photoshop Elements, your potential solutions may come from Premiere Elements. Therefore, I might be suggesting moving this discussion to another forum. For now, I suggest that you respond to this thread.

No Hopes for SMOOTH Video Playback in Adobe Bridge ?

Hi....
System Specs
MacPro Nehalem 16 CORES
32 GB RAM - 4TB RAID0
Lion 7.2
I have a bunch of video files that I would like to organize via Bridge.
Works ok but video playback is a slap in the face. Looks like jerky slow motion.
I have tried altering from hardware to software rendering. No remedy.
Bridge has been around for a long while and with each release the app actually performs worse.
Menus are ultimately slow in showing up and entering a folder with 16 video files (QT ProRes),
selecting them all, has Bridge freezing for 5 minutes supposedly creating previews.
Completey unuseable for video.... in my world !
So my question is this...
Are their any plans for implementing Video Capabilities in Bridge
or is some kind of 3rd pty. plug-in available that will enable Bridge to playback what ANY other app incl. the QUicklook and Finder can Playback.
Funny thing is that this whole app has been created to BRIDGE between apps created by adobe. If Bridge was a REAL bridge I wouldn't dare cross it.

It has always seemed that Bridge has been the stepchild of Adobe since its inception and that Adobe spends precious little effort and resources on it.
Remember that Bridge was born as nothing more than Photoshop's Browser. Nothing more.
Then, in a straight marketing stunt, Adobe decided artificially to lump together a number of totally unrelated applications into artificial "suites." These are in fact totally non-related applications that were artificially bundled by fiat of bean counters and marketers. The engineering teams for the individual point applications are totally independent from each other and are not only not in in the same building but in different cities, different states and, some, in different countries. They have pathetically little communication among themselves.
The humble Photoshop Browser was renamed Bridge and jerry-rigged to serve as some sort of go-between vehicle among the applications also jerry-ringed into artificial suites. (Definition of JERRY-RIGGED: organized or constructed in a crude or improvised manner <a jerry–rigged plan>.
Don't expect too much from Bridge, and don't complain about it too loudly, or you might find yourself among others who have been told, in effect, that "Adobe doesn't charge you for Bridge." As a "free" byproduct, you get what you paid for.
In this context, just look at what has happened to the value of Adobe stock in the last five years: –28.20% (minus).
Compare that to Apple during the exact same period: +358.43%.

Slow video playback in Photoshop Elements 11

Playback of videos directly in Photoshop Elements Organizer is very slow. Video is stuttering.
Playing the same video outside of PSE11 with Windows Media Player is much better. Video plays without any stuttering.
Looks like the internal video player of PSE11 is very poor and provides slow performance.
What can I do do have the same video performance with the PSE11 player as I have with WMP.
I use Windows 7 64 Bit (8 GB RAM) with a Intel Core i3 (2330). This CPU has enough power to playback HD or Full-HD videos without any stuttering!!!
Why can't the internal play of PSE11 Organizer play my videos without stuttering - like WMP 12.0.7601.18150 does?
Regards,
Dodson65

The videos I use are created with different devices.
I have HD videos taken with a Pentax DSLR and I have Full-HD videos taken with a Windows Phone 8 device.
Both playback on my Laptop without any stottering with different software. I checked WMP and VLC. Even when using my Laptop with energy-saving profile these videos can be played without stottering.
When I playback the videos in PSE11 Organizer I don't want to edit them - just playback. So why should the internal player behave different? I agree with you - this might be different when I playback the videos in Premiere Elements 11 (as this is a video editing software). But when using Photoshop Elements 11 I want to be able to playback videos in the same performance as I can do with WMP or VLC. If Photoshop Elements 11 can't do that - why? The organizer of PSE11 is not an editor. It should be able to playback videos the same way (with the same performance) as other players on my laptop.
Can you please explain this sentence: "Have you started a Premiere Elements project yet that uses this video's specs? This will often trigger Premiere Elements to download the necessary components for interpretting the video." Is there anything I can do to improve video playback performance?

MPEG4 Video playback is jumping and generally poor

Hey all,
I've got a couple videos that are already converted to MPEG4 (.mp4) that play absolutely fine in quicktime 7.1.3 but when i try to play them in itunes i get jumpy sketchy playback, it's unbearable to watch!
The problem definately isn't hardware as i run a G4 1.67ghz machine with 2GB of RAM. I've got nothing else open and besides as I said it runs fine in quicktime.
Does anyone know any tricks to get around this?
15 Powerbook G4 1.67 Superdrive 2GB 128MB Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Followup:
If i convert to H.264 using convert for ipod in iTunes i can play the files no problem but that shouldn't be necessary as mp4 is supposed to be supported.
It would litteraly take years to convert all the stuff i have over to H.264, really keen to mp4 working in itunes.

Slow video playback in very high resolution X11

Hi everyone. I write this msg for ask your eternal knowledgement.
I have a very huge system (i7 3820 LGA2011, 8Gb quad channel, Gigabyte x79-up5-wifi, AMD HD5870 2Gb Eyefinity 6, etc) running Arch on it. The OS is updated. The Arch config is very minimal, using Fluxbox as WM and VLC and Mplayer to playback videos. The video driver is the latest stable Catalyst (13.4) and so on. I got connected six HD screens seted to a resolution of 1366x768. These screens are managed with xrandr, adjusted for considering the bezel compensation, using xrand --output MONITOR --pos X+BEZELxY+BEZEL.
When i play a video with mplayer (using the gl video driver) the movie shows very well and smooth, but when i pan the video all over de virtual screen (4194x1583 aprox), the movie shows very choppy.
The strange fact is the Conky reports shows me an 5% of CPU usage, so the system performance are not the problem.
The mplayer flags that i use to play this video are plenty, being the threads=4, gl:ati-hack and -root the most important.
If anyone can give me a hint to solve this issue, i would be very grateful.
thx in advance.

PSE 9 Organizer Error Adding Keyword Tags and Other Woes

Hello, everyone. I am having a ton of problems with PSE 9 Organizer. The most frustrating and biggest problem is that I believe my catalog has been corrupted beyond repair. I spent all of yesterday tagging my photos. I had no problems and everything seemed to be going well until all of the sudden, the organizer suddenly froze up. I had to use the Windows task manager just to get it to close. This happened several times. Finally, the organizer locked up my computer and I had to restart. I opened the catalog and didn't seem to have any problems at that point. I was able to view all of the images, video files etc. I was even able to open the editor from the organizer. When I tried to add a tag to a photo it gave me an error. All it said was "error adding keyword tag" then nothing. I tried to delete the photo and all it said was "error deleting photo". This "error" shows up any time I try to make any changes to all of the images. I can't add any new photos, can't delete, or add tags. I have repaired the catalog several times. It found errors the first time, but evidently that didn't fix my problem. I also optimized and deleted my thumbnail cache to see if that was the issue. Still nothing. I have other catalogs and they work fine, so it is something to do with this particular catalog. Any suggestions on what to do next? Can I move the pictures to a new catalog without losing the tags? And no, I didn't write the tags to the images because I wasn't done tagging. Besides, PSE doesn't always write the tags correctly, as you probably know. Next problem. When I first open PSE and select the organizer, it doesn't alway open. I can see it on my taskbar (Windows 7 64 bit), but I can't get the window to maximize. I have to close and open several times to get the window to open. Sometimes it randomly jumps to my second monitor like it can't decide where to go. Very frustrating. I would appreciate any suggestions about what to do. Thanks.

Back to the original question, after thinking about this for a couple days I have had two ideas for workarounds:
1) Copy my tag names into the photo metadata and create a new catalog to bring all of my images into. This will allow me to keep all of my existing tags, and it MIGHT solve the tag display problem based on a test with a couple images in a new catalog. The downsides to this are a) permanently writes my tags into the photo metadata which will be bad if I decide to change something later, b) loses all version sets, and c) loses all albums (although I don't have that many). I found instructions for this workaround at http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Merging_Catalogs.
2) Live with the lack of color tag display in Organizer, and use reverse searches to find missing tag categories. For example, if I want to find all photos that do not have a "Places" tag, I check the box next to the "Places" category (which also selects all sub-categories and tags below this). Then I go to the Options drop-down in the Find Bar and "Hide best match results" and "Show results that do not match". This gives me every image in my catalog that does not have a tag from the "Places" category, so I can go through and tag these as appropriate.
I would have gone with #1 if it weren't for the permanence of the keywords. I guess I have a commitment problem (or I just haven't got my tag hierarchy figured out yet). Instead, I am going with #2 which should give me most of what I need for now. I will still hold out some small glimmer of hope that Adobe manages a fix for this issue down the road.

Why am I having imbedded video playback problems in Lion?

Hello all,
I'm been having problems viewing web videos on my 2011 MBPro 13'' w/ OS X Lion. Any time of web video I have normal sound by the video frames get all jumpy, almost like its less than 1fps. The only web videos that do not have this problem is when I watch a youtube video on youtube.com. If I watch imbedded youtube videos, I have the same skittish video playback problem.
I have my adobe flash updated and I used Google Chrome as my web browser.
Anyone else have a similar problem? Fixes? Thanks!
-Sean

Two things to keep in mind
There is a forum for Lion, another for MBP owners, and this is not.
And yes you will find lots and lots of threads of same.... no one looks at those that were "Solved"

Pse 12 organizer crashing after opening

pse 12 organizer crashing after opening,HELP

Hi deepsea285,
You can try to Update the video card driver.
Many video card manufacturers frequently update their software drivers. If you haven't recently updated the video card driver,
If still issue Persists,
1. Re-create the Elements Organizer preferences file.
Navigate to the Elements Organizer settings folder:
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Adobe\Elements Organizer\[Version]\Organizer\
Win Vista/7/8: C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Elements Organizer\[Version]\Organizer\
Macintosh OS: //Users/[User Name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Elements Organizer/[Version]/Organizer/
NOTE: Some of the folders in these paths could be hidden. To reveal them, see:
Show hidden files, folders, filename extensions | Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7
Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion
   2. Rename psa.prf to psa.old.
   3. Retry launching Elements Organizer

Trouble "getting" photos in PSE 8 Organizer

I'm trying to bring photos into PSE 8 Organizer. I've used PSE 5 and 6 with no problem. Now I've upgraded my computer to a new, 64-bit Windows 7 computer (Dell Inspiron), and a new PSE 8. I've imported my PSE 6 catalog with, apparently, no trouble.
Now when I try to get new files, I can't select them in the "Get Photos and Videos" window. I can see the files I want, but when I try to click to select them, they either won't select at all, or they select the folder above or below the one I want, or they select a different folder and show a duplicate of the same folder, or the folder I want disappears.
It's the weirdest thing I've ever seen!
Any ideas what's happening???

Hmm, haven't heard of those symptoms before.
As a workaround, try dragging individual files, selections of multiple files, or entire folders into the Organizer. Does importing them that way work?
