Missing .PSD codec in Premiere Elements 10?

I started a thread a few days ago about my Instantmovies failing to load all the content necessary for the movie, as indicated they should be by the animated thumbnail preview, but that thread is buried several pages away and nobody has responded to it, so I take it nobody will at this point in time, so I'm updating my experience with this one. I have already spent hours online with Adobe tech support, determined that I have all the most updated drivers, etc. (I'm a new user of Premiere Elements 10 and the problem has always been there, even after reinstalling the program.)
What I have to share that's new is that I went searching within my hard drive for the missing content, assuming that the Instantmovie folders I opened in Premiere Elements show me the full content of these folders, even though some content doesn't seem to be there. I found that there's a lot more content in those folders, if I look at them outside of Premiere Elements. Some of the missing files are .PSDs.
When I tried to load one into my project, for a manual insertion into the timeline of a rendered movie, the program refused and gave me a message saying "This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed."
So my problem is that the codec SHOULD be intalled but isn't? You reckon that's why the Instantmovies are missing content?
I have Photoshop Elements installed. If it's just a matter of copying a codec from Photoshop Elements and pasting it into a codecs folder of Premiere Elements, where's the codec to be found in the Photoshop Elements folder?
I'm excited that I may be close to solving this agonizing problem.

That's indeed odd.  My original installation was with the downloaded trial edition. Since the Instantmovies weren't working well, I uninstalled and reinstalled. Same problem, so I uninstalled and installed again from the disk set I bought. And there's been no improvement. So the install packages are the same (as Adobe tech support told me) and I encountered no problems doing the installations.
As you may recall from your other responses to a couple of other minor issues involving Premiere Elements, I'm using a Toshiba Satellite, i3 Intel processor, 4 gigs of RAM, Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit.

  • Missing Codec for Premiere Elements 12

    Hi, I just bought Elements 12.  I installed it into my computer fine.  However when I tried to upload my video from an external hard drive it would not take it.  It said that a "codec" was missing.  My computer is new and the software is new.  Does anyone have any ideas?   It does not tell me  which codec is missing other than something is missing.  The video was transferred from a mini-dv onto the hard drive. 
    The whole reason why I bought Elements was to do some editing on this project.  If I can't do it, then this software is useless to me.
    Thanks,
    Deeadrian

    deeadrian,
    However, am I to understand that in order to do any capturing that I will need firewire?  When I read the booklet and information, I did not see any reference to firewire.  Or are you  referring to this particular instance?  If not and firewire is needed, then why are like 90+ percent of the computers being on the market do not have firewire anymore?
    A tape workflow is going by the wayside. It is a "legacy," and is being replaced rapidly with a tapeless workflow, often AVCHD. MiniDV tape, however good it is, is being phased out, and computer mfgrs. are turning their backs on it - including the FW connections.
    When I was in the process of ordering my "super" laptop replacement, I had to wait 4 mos., until Clevo (a major laptop MoBo mfgr.) put the IEEE-1394a chip BACK onto their top-end MoBo. I waited, as I still do a lot of miniDV tape Capture, and needed that connection. I knew what I needed, and was prepared to both wait for it, and then pay for it.
    Whenever someone is dealing with legacy technology, they have to make allowances for that. I still have two old computers set up, as they offer me connections, that I still need, decades later, like SCSI for my Nikon scanner, and some older technology. That is the price of technological advancement - one has to accommodate the old stuff.
    I have kept my old Photoshop CS2, because I have a ton of Kodak PhotoCD's, and there is no ability to read those files in the newest versions of Photoshop. Support for that format was dropped some years ago - but I can still access those discs, just on my older computers.
    Good luck,

  • .3GP codec needed for Premiere Elements 13

    How can I play back .3GP files in Premiere Elements 13? It says I need to install a codec first to play. Where can I download a compatible codec for Premiere Elements 13?

    5
    For the following 3gp file I am getting playback of video and audio in Premiere Elements 13 Editor and only video playback in the Elements Organizer 13.
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201549
    See if you get the same results with it.
    Note: This particular 3gp file uses MPEG-4 Video (mp4v) video compression and samr: AMR Narrowband audio compression.
    Also, please look at the following scenarios and then let me know if it makes any difference in the results obtained....
    1. This 3gp file is not in Elements Organizer to start.
    2. Open Premiere Elements 13 Editor project to its Expert workspace and import the 3gp file using Add Media/Files and Folders.
    Then drag the file from Project Assets to the Timeline (Video Track 1/Audio Track 1). Does the file play back with video and audio there?.
    3. Open the Elements Organizer 13. When you imported the file into the Premiere Elements 13 Editor, a copy of the file was automatically
    placed in the Elements Organizer 13.
    a. If you right click the file's thumbnail in Elements Organizer 13, do you see a video image in the thumbnail?
    b. If you double click the thumbnail do you get play back of video and audio?
    4. If you repeat the same thing with a DVD video file (VTS_01_1.VOB),
    a. video and sound in Premiere Elements 13 Editor?
    b. video and sound in Elements Organizer 13?
    In the case of the VOB, my results were
    Premiere Elements 13 Editor...playback video and audio
    Elements Organizer 13...playback of video but no audio
    This file uses MPEG2 video compression and Dolby Digital audio.
    Can you confirm the video and audio compression used by your 3gp files...please see GSpot codec utility.

    Thanks.

  • Pixelating in Premiere Elements 10

    I am trying to use Premiere Elements 10 for the first time.  I imported a file from my Panasonic Lumix camera that was recorded in "Motion JPEG" Format.  The file plays great in Quicktime (fullscreen on a 23.5 inch monitor).  When I play it in Premiere Elements 10 in the upper left window, it is very pixelated.  Please help.  I am trying to use Premiere Elements to combine two files and do a little editing.

    CODogMom
    MotionJPEG can be a problematic video codec for Premiere Elements, more in the availability of it to the program. But, before we jump on the MotionJPEG drill, let us factor in or out the way that you have set up the project.
    1. What are the properties of the video from this Panasonic Lumix camera beside video compression...such as frame size, frame rate, aspect ratio, file extension, progressive or interlaced...I am thinking that it is interlaced. If so, what is the Field Order: Upper Field First or Lower Field First. I am guessing Upper Field First.
    2. The project preset that you set should match the properties of the source media. So what are you setting as the project preset so that the project is directed to set up the correct space in the Edit Mode monitor for editing purposes?
    3. How do you intend to export your Timeline after import/edit?
    Have you used and other version of Premiere Elements before and, if so, on this same computer? And, with this same Panasonic footage?
    What two files are you trying to combine? Two files from the same camera recorded with the same settings or other?
    Please review and then we will decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Premiere Elements 4 audio won't play on mp4 files, codecs missing/unavailable on .mov files

    I dowlnloaded Premiere Elements 4, and when I import mp4 files, the video plays but the audio will not. I've also tried to import .mov files, and an error message pops up that says "Codec missing or unavailable." I downloaded the latest version of Quicktime, but that didn't change anything. The files will play back on the video camera, but I"m having trouble with them on my computer. The audio on the mp4 files plays in Quicktime, but not the video, and vice versa when I import them into Elements. Any suggestions?

    Does Quicktime Pro also edit .mov files on a PC?

    Premiere Elements 4 pretty much works with tape-based digital video. That would be video from a miniDV or HDV tape-based camcorder. It doesn't handle other formats very well.
    If you plan to edit MP4s, you definitely want to upgrade to a more current version of the program. If you can't install a current version of the program, you may need to address issues on your computer (such as an outdated operating system or underpowered hardware configuration).
    Short of that, you could buy Quicktime Pro from Apple for $29. It will edit MP4s, even on a PC platform.

    Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit).
    First..
    1. Have you updated from 13 to the 13.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
    2. Do the problems exist if you disable the antivirus and firewall(s)?
    3. Are you running the program as Administrator? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer?
    4. Have you refreshed the Online Services using Premiere Elements Editor Edit Menu/Preferences/Web Sharing?
    5. Have you updated the Adobe Application Manager?
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773
    6.Is your video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    7. Lots more we could go through such as deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary, the whole
    13.0 Folder in which it exists.
    But, I think that you have enough things going on here to warrant an uninstall, free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) and then reinstall with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.

    If the problems persist after all that then we will adjust to additional troubleshooting maneuvers.

  • Can I open PSD Video files in premiere elements 12?

    I have Photoshop CS6 and would like to purchase a video editing software.  My question is if I purchase Premiere Elements 12, will I be able to open PSD video files from photoshop in the Premiere Elements?

    Ps CS 6 (and the Extended version back to CS 4) can edit Video (limited Import capabilities, and limited Export capabilities). However, Ps will NOT Export any Video as a PSD. The PSD format is the Ps native Image format, and is output via Save.
    My *assumption* was that the PSD was a Still Image, that was perhaps going to be animated in Video via Keyframing the Fixed Effects, such as Motion>Position, over time, as there is no PSD Video. Perhaps my assumption was incorrect, as to what the OP has, and wishes.
    In Ps CS 6, Video output will be to a standard Video format/CODEC, but the list of available formats/CODEC's is very limited, compared to Premiere.
    Maybe I am just misunderstanding what the OP is looking to do?

    In case you did not find it, the following is a copy/paste of the Announcement on Premiere Elements 19/NVIDIA GeForce
    that appears at the top of this forum.
    Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing
    Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling
    back the video card driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
    Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow
    glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies
    to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of
    the problems. The typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere
    Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
    Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports

  • Premiere Elements 12...codec issue

    I am using Windows 7 on my lenovo U310 with Premiere Elements 12 installed, to publish my premiere project in MP4 h264 1440x1080p 30f.  The published project has video but no audio output.
    Working on the same project with another computer with windows 7, also with Premiere Elements 12 installed, the published project has both video and audio output.
    When i opened the project from the 2nd computer using the U310, the message says " this type of file format not supported, or the required codec is not installed."
    Questions:
    a.)  in the U310, why no audio in the published work?
    b.)  why the project file from the 2nd computer cannot be recognizd by the U310?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the forum.
    When an output file has Video, but no Audio, it is often due to the settings for Multiplexing, in the Publish+Share dialog. Multiplexing combines the Video and Audio Streams into one file. My first act would be to verify that Multiplexing in the Audio Tab in Advanced, is set to something but "None." This article goes into more detail: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3557964#3557964
    If that is not the cause, in this case, it would be informative to know exactly which Audio CODEC was chosen for that output. That info gathering could be as easy as just running the file through G-Spot, or MediaInfo, to gather the Audio CODEC in the file.
    Good luck,
