Need help with Adobe Premiere Elements 2

I can drag a large high rez jpeg into timeline. Then when I click to playback....it gets more pixelated. That's a bad beginning. Then, when I go to export it, I've tried several extensions. All look bad during playback on YouTube. This should be pretty simple. High quality jpeg, but is fuzzy in movie. What's going wrong?

hi Bill -
ok fine. I have PSDs too. I tried what you said.
I put a PSD right beside a JPEG in the timeline. I rendered it (which I
didn't know to do because the instructions don't even mention it. The
instructions are terrible. Seems it leaves out a lot of info.)
So, then I click PLAY on my monitor. I see no difference between the PSD
and the JPEG yet. So, if I want to put this on YouTube, what's the best way
exactly, without gettting too technical? It looks like I have the choice
between Exporting in Mpeg or Quicktime or Windows Media. I think youtube
likes wmv.

When you drag the stills to the Timeline, there should be a red line
above them. Press Enter to Render the Timeline.

Do not know the particulars of PrE 2, but in later versions, you can
Rt-click on the Program Monitor, and choose Magnification = 100%, rather
than Fit. You might have to resize your Program Monitor, but check at 100%.
Â
Also remember a few points:
Â
1.) You are looking at a DVD-quality image now, and that was designed
with low-rez CRT TV's in mind, and NOT hi-rez computer monitors. DVD vs
hi-rez sources and displays is probably less than what VHS vs DVD was, not
that long ago.
2.) You are looking at an emulation, a preview
3.) Your images have already been compressed to JPEG once, loosing
quality. That is why I always work in PSD, especially if there has already
been one JPEG compression, whether in camera, or in the image processing
stage. I keep JPEG either out of my workflow, or as limited, as is
possible. Some do not see the quality loss with JPEG compression, but I do,
and if I can create images that are as good as it gets, I know that my
clients will be happy.

Good luck,

Need help with Adobe Premiere Elements 9 for the Windows XP PC

Just got it today, so I could make my own video and audio files from pre-existing ones. I first used a version of Adobe Premiere back in school in the '90s, and seemed to easily make them there, while not working on school work. There was a row for inserted video, and a row below that for inserted audio. I'm out of college currently, and just bought Elements 9, as said, but am struggling with it. Could someone please tutor me to get me started? Perhaps even talk over the phone? I'm trying to combine different video and audio tracks into a new singular video/audio file.
Thanks in advance.
>>
Welcome to the forum, but unfortunately, you have posted to the Premiere Pro, CS 4 and Earlier forum.
Instead, you should post to the PrElements Forum, as few here will know anything about PrE 9.
Now, the starting secret of PrE is your Source Files. Can you tell us the full details of those?
Next, matching those to the correct Project Preset, is the next step. Can you tell us what you chose at New Project?
For a list of some of the resources for learning PrE, see this ARTICLE.
Good luck,
Hunt
>>
What are Source Files? You mean the videos I'm using? The main one is here:
http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/bones.php
Two to four additions to it will be used with video parts from here:
http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/us_commercials.php
And my first project is a .prel file. Is that what you meant?
Is it possible I could get assistance over the phone?
Thanks.

I created a more precise list of what I wish to combine to make one new video program:
Audio:
http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/bones.php
Transformers_S2.mpg (0:00 - 0:33) (All)
Video:
http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/bones.php
Transformers_S2.mpg (0:00 - 0:08)
Fade to
Transformers_S2.mpg (0:31 - 0:33)
Fade to
http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/us_commercials.php
Rodimus.mpg (0:00- 0:08) (Note: Should start after grey jet passes by on top of screen (less than a second in), and stop after blue robot tramples over the other two robots, cutting off the part where he's shot at from the sky, and all that afterward.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yd1OmZvU8w
(1:34 - 1:38) (Note: Should start as soon as video beings, and end when the four side robots are shooting their laser guns, and the one in the middle shoots his shoulder-cannons, cutting off the part with the bridge and missiles, and everything else afterward.)
http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/us_commercials.php
trypt.mpg (0:15 - 0:16) (Note: Only shows the brief second or two where the five robots quickly transform to one big robot.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h23kRJ9i058
(5:22 - 5:25) (Note: Should start with all 5 robots appearing onscreen, and end with them, in a combined robot, firing at the screen, cutting off the white laser-shooting base/battle-station and everything else afterward.)
http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/bones.php
Transformers_S2.mpg (0:23 - 0:33) (Note: Should start with lava-flowing ending, and lined-walkway appears, and goes to the end.)
Not sure if I can get all of these videos in, in the 33 second time limit. I'm willing to cut either the trypt.mpg clip, and/or the youtube link-clip below it.
I have a youtube downloader program, so no worries there. Also need to know how to cut video so I can make these clips that are from youtube and tfarchive.
I also want the video to contain the same quality as shown from each file here, and all fit the size of the largest file (the youtube one, I think it is).
Please LMK how to do this, and if any of this is unclear. Things like this are all I really want to use APE9 for, so I won't be asking much else here.
Thanks.

I need help with adobe premiere elements 12

I just bought premiere elements 12 and i tried to upload a video to youtube and it was longer than 15 minutes and it said it was to long to upload to youtube. I have uploaded a 22 minute video before how can i upload a longer video thanks.

YouTube won't allow you to upload a video that long directly from Premiere Elements.
If you've got a modified YouTube account that allows longer videos, you can do so by manually uploading a video you output using Publish & Share/Computer/AVCHD with the YouTube HD preset.

Help with Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0

Hello!
I recently began fooling around with Premiere elements and I had a couple of questions about it: First, if you could please watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/user/iTerabithia#p/search/6/01qfQSyq1WI In the almost beginning it shows Lucy hug Edmund and then a shot of Lucy crying fades into it and then out again. Do you know how to do that with Adobe Premiere Elements? And also, how is that color achieved from the very beginning of the video? And is there any way to do audio effects? If you could please answer these questions I would appreciate it ever so much!
Thanks!

John T.,
Thanks. I should have added that info.
What does that little "scene" look like to you? I'm thinking a Video Clip on a higher Video Track, and maybe with less that 100% Opacity. Guess that if it covers the whole Frame, it would not be a PiP, officially, but would involve the same principles.
Appreciated,

Need help opening Adobe Premiere Elements 11

I purchased a package deal with Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 and Premiere Elements 11. The photoshop portion is working fine, but I can't get the premiere to even open! I click on the icon on my dock and nothing happens. There is another icon on my desktop (main screen) but it only gives me an option to 'un-install'. Is there a phone number to call for Adobe support? I need real help!!??

Welcome to the forum.
As the biggest cause of PrE not launching is an obsolete video driver (PSE does not rely so heavily on the video driver), please answer these questions:
What is the make and model of your video card/chip?
Do you have a laptop, or desktop?
What is the installed version of the video driver?
Is that the latest from the nVidia, or AMD/ATI Web site? Do not trust your OS to tell if you have the latest.

Help with Adobe Premiere Elements window appearing!

I've owned Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0 for about 5 or 6 years now. I still have the original disc and serial number. I installed it on my laptop (Sony Vaio bought in 2009. Runs on Vista), and when I open the program up and click on "files and folders" and double click on a video, I keep getting a pop-up saying "Adobe Premiere Elements is not working." And then the program closes. It frustrates me. I can't afford a new update. Anyway this can be fixed? It never did this to me on my old laptop which I do not have anymore. Thank you for your time.

Before you focus on the Premiere Elements 4 itself, let us look at the computer environment and the properties of the video that you are importing into the project.
1. Given you have Premiere Elements 4. Is it installed on Windows Vista 32 or 64 bit?
2. What are the properties of this video that you are importing into the new project and what have you set as the project preset to match the properties of that source media?...I am looking for video and audio compression, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, file extension, pixel aspect ratio, duration. If you were to import a few jpg photos into a new project would that shut down the project/program as well?
3. Do you have the latest verision of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 4? Do you have the program set for Run As Administrator and set to run from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
4. Is your video card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card?
5. Is your computer optimized with a program such as ccleaner (regular cleaner and registry cleaner)?

6. Please describe your computer resources?

Need Help On Adobe Premiere elements 12

I have made a recording on my DVR and captured it onto my laptop with the Hauppauge capture device without a problem I have edited it with the Premiere elements but upon reviewing it it looks a little more pixilated than the original.
What are the correct settings to finalize it without it seeming so pixilated Im looking to save it to a external hard drive Thanks

Help with Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor - Won't work after Maverick upgrade

I bought Adobe Elements 11 in March of 2013. It was working fine until upgrading to Maverick. It will not open now. Adobe will not help without a serial number. Apple does not provide serial numbers when you buy directly from the App Store. After 3 hours of trying to unintall and reinstall, no luck. Apple said to call Adobe back, Adobe says to call Apple. Finally just asked Apple to refund me the $85.00. They said said they ‘can’t’ since I’ve ‘had it for so long’ (7 months ?? ). They said the problem was my fault because I didn’t check and make sure Adobe Elements was compatible with Maverick before installing Maverick. I should mention that it states (on the App Store page) that Adobe Elements 11 is "compatible with OS X 10.7.5 or later”.   Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and if any kind of resolution was achieved?   Again, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Tony

Need Help With Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0

I have and use Adobe Acrobat and three versions of Adobe Photoshop Elements (2, 5 and 7). I use version 2 frequently as I'm more familiar with it and it's simpler to use for what I need to do. All was fine until recently when my computer was installed with Windows 8. Now I can't save photo edits from Version 2.0...... it aborts each time I try. Why is that? It is costing me a lot of wasted time. The other versions that i have don't do that. Need help. Thanks. Stu Snyder.

The first thing i would try is deleting the Photoshop Elements 2.0 Prefs folder as explained in the post #2 linked to below:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1254224?tstart=30
Does it happen when trying to save as any file format or just a certain one like jpeg?
Have you tried saving a photo to a different place like your desktop?

Needing help with Adobe Premiere Pro

Yes, I know it is ancient but I still use it. I use it for my school's daily news broadcast. We capture our students as if they are presenting a live news program and then assemble in the timeline. We use a miniDV camcorder and firewire. Once we have all of the elements in the timeline, we then are able to play the timeline via the firewire (hooked to the camcorder) through the play/edit mode through a VCR out via coaxial cable to all of the classrooms in our school.
My current problem is that I encountered an error while creating a movie. I have a preset that saves versions every 3 minutes. I tried opening each of them but it just keeps saying it's loading but that is it...nothing ever comes on the screen. I moved a title slide (in a folder outside of the project folder destination) right before I had decided to make the movie. I did get one version to open---finally but thought...well, let's try a later one...so I don't have to "recreate" everything I had just done....then none of them would open...not even the one I got open.
Also, if anyone has any suggestions on a different way to do what I am doing using newer technology...please share.
Finally, is there updates that maybe I need to download or something to continue to be able to use Premiere Pro???
Please share any and all suggestions...desperate in Missouri

John,
Take a trip in the WABAC Machine.
Now, I could be wrong, but when the OP said "Yes, I know it is ancient but I still use it." I assume they meant the original version. The one without a number. The one some people called Premiere Pro 7, or Premiere 7. Or whatever. The one right after Premiere 6.
I remember having to go through the numbering explanation in my tutorials on Premiere Pro 1.5 since confusion reigned. You can still watch the introductory video and get my explanation starting around the 40 second mark.
But, as I said, I could have it wrong. They might have a different version.

Can a video created with Adobe Premiere Elements 13 be converted to run on Adobe Premiere Elements 11?

Can a video created with Adobe Premiere Elements 13 be converted to run (and be edited, etc.) on Adobe Premiere Elements 11?
I have several hours invested in a video creation that I made with Premiere Elements 13, but now 13 is refusing to work properly (space bar and play button do not move the time line indicator forward). Hopefully, I will get the problem solved, but in the meantime I must get this project completed and don't have time to start over. So, I need to convert the work so that it can be completed with Premiere 11 which seems to work fine.
Thanks, Dave

Dave
Is this an outdated thread? I thought that you had resolved the play button/space bar issue.
Classically, you cannot open a project created in a later version in an earlier version. If you try, you get hit with "The project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened." messaged. There was one rare and little known occasion when that was not the case. It involved Premiere Elements 10. So, that is not going to help us any here.
If you still have the play button/space bar issue, can you get out of the 13 project by exporting it to file which you can import into a new Premiere Elements 11 project? If need be, I can suggest the details of that if you tell me the project setting for the 13 project.
Please let us know the situation at this time.
Thank you.

Problem with Adobe Premiere Elements 10 : error DW046

Dear community members,
I have bought Adobe Premiere Elements 10 and installed it from the DVDs on my MAC OSX10.5.8 on december 27, 2013
When creating a new project , I get the following message :
following a serious error, Premiere Elements 10 must stop
Then I click OK and I get a new message :
The Premiere 10 application has closed suddenly after having been rebooted
Then I end up to the error report window. I have sent the error report to Apple ( I can send it to you if you want)
I have also got the following error message :
DW046 : following conflicting process were running, block : dynamiclinkmanager
Notice : it seems this problem is occuring since I underwent a power failure while working on a project. When I want to open an existing project I get the following message :
it seems that Premiere Elements has closed in an unexpected way during the last session. Do you want to open the previous project?
When I say YES, I save it and it comes back to the welcome menu and I cannot see this project.
I have tried to deinstall and reinstall Premiere 10 : this is impossible since I am required to deactivate dynamiclinkmanager that I cannot find.
Notice that Adobe AIR is unable to find a solution whilst it recognizes there is a problem.
Thanks you for your help

AT Romano,
The various links you have provided were very helpful. I could kill the dynamiclinkmanager.
It seems that it is now working.

it seems that Premiere Elements has closed in an unexpected way during the last session. Do you want to open the previous project?
Do you go to the last AutoSave to open that or do you go to the save location of the project file (project.prel) to open that file?
Are you getting message to close the dynamiclinkmanager so that you can move forward?

Problem reading GoPro Hero Black 4 files (1080p 120 fps) on my iMac with Adobe Premiere Elements

Hello,
I have a problem reading GoPro Hero Black 4 files (1080p 120 fps) on my iMac with Adobe Premiere Elements : the file is read but the quality is quite bad. When I watch it with other software like VLC or MPC, the quality is perfect but the video is sometimes slowed or there are some jumps in the reading.
What is the issue with this ?
thakns for your help !
Olivier.

This is easy. I do it all the time. FCPX ingests GoPro footage just fine. Optimize, and you're good to go.
BTW: A common hiccup occurs when dealing with over-cranked footage. (60fps or 120fps.) Be sure to "conform speed" to actuate the slo-mo. 'Tis also important to designate your project / timeline at 24fps or 30fps to realize the speed difference.
I've gotten burned in the past. I'll drag my over-cranked GoPro footage to the timeline. As it is the "first" clip layed into the timeline, the project assumes THAT speed as a default. (As per my preferences.) Thus, when I "conform speed," nothing seems to happen. That's because my project is displaying at the higher rate. A 60fps timeline showing footage shot at 60fps looks "normal speed."
FYI. (And disregard if you know all this.)

How to remove a timestamp with adobe premiere elements 8

How do I remove a time and date stamp on a video with adobe premiere elements 8.

If the camera burns in the date/time stamp, then there is not much that can be done.
If you need to eliminate that, then the best would be to apply the Effect>Motion>Scale, to enlarge the footage, until the date/time stamp is effectively cropped off by the Frame Size. You might want to look into Effect>Motion>Position, to "move" the date/time stamp closer to an edge.
The other method is tedious, and requires ideally Adobe AfterEffects. There, you could use the Clone Tool, to "paint out" the date/time stamp, if there is enough clean background to do so.
A variation on that method would be to Export/Share as a Filmstrip and Import that into Photoshop (if one had Photoshop Extended, there are other formats, that would work too), and then Frame by Frame, use the Clone Tool to remove that image.
Though not a way to remove it, you can also replace it with a Title, that occupies the area of the date/time stamp, and just cover it up.
If the camera allows you to turn that "feature" OFF, you would want to do so for newer footage.
Good luck, and sorry for the bad news.
