Premier Elements 10, Audio Tools menu

Whilst currently making a dvd project, the use of any of the Audio Tools drop down sub-menu's, ceased working or displayed.
The sub-menu's were displayed, but unable to activate any of them, eg smart mix, audio mix.
Help please, even though using the learn by video, it can be done, but a really long winded way, rather than the use of sliders to control volumn.

Hi Bill.
Unfortunately I haven't a clue as to what this reply is all about, as no
idea what Pre and PS is, and so I'm in total darkness.
As I've just mentioned in previous email, this problem only started during
this latest project. Also found that audio tool, as Steve said, but again
nothing happens when trying Audio tools, and then Audio mix. Either way to
select audio tools, and then to try to activate Audio mix, ends in nothing
what so ever.
Thanks for your assistance.

I am trying to locate the 'Audio Tools Menu' in Premier elements 9.

I want to add a narration using Premier Elements 9. I am told to choose "Add Narration" from the "Audio Tools Menu", but have been unable to locate anything like that. Just how is that done?

Premiere Elements 9 workspace and the speaker icon below the monitor and above the Timeline.
After you click on Add Narration
What microphone do you have? Typically, problems with the USB type.
Check out the Adobe Document for Narration
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premiereelements/using/WSED45334D-D309-445e-AF34-2AB3E3CCAA8D. html
It is labelled for Premiere Elements 11, but the principles are the same.
Any questions or clarifications needed, please let me know.

Premier Elements 9 - DVD Main Menu not showing navigation highlights

Hi All,
Apologies if this discussion / question appears twice. I seemd to lose the original and did not think it had been posted.
New to Adobe and just started using Premier Elements 9 for a basic DVD project.
I managed to work out importing, editing, transitions, adding soundtrack etc and got to the DVD Menu stage where everything seemed to come together.
Once i had burned to DVD i checked it worked on the PC which it did but when i tried in a number of DVD players, there was an issue with Main Menu marker navigation.
This project has a main and four scene menus plus an 'Extras' marker i added to the Main Menu pointing toward Stills..
On all the Scene menus, i can see a clear highlight dot move from scene to scene as i navigate with the remote, showing where I am as you would expect.
On the Main Menu however, where i have Play Movie, Scenes and Extras markers, there is no sign of any dot or highlight to tell you which of these you are currently on so its a lottery as to which you get when navigating with a remote from the Main Menu.
I am pretty sure this is user error and if anyone has thoughts of what i have done or not done when i set up the DVD Menu section maybe, i would very much appreciate it.
A little additional info is apart from adding the 'Extras' button to the main menu i imported a still image/Logo to show up in the middle of the menu screen and added a sound clip to the main and all the 'Scene menus.
Whether that has anything to do with it i don't know.
thank you in advance for any clues as to what i have done wrong.
Regards
psutt.

Hi ATR,
My sincere apologies for not getting back to you sooner. This project has been above and beyond my day to day work as an integrator to the Post Production area and everything went a little nuts over the last few weeks.
I wanted to let you know that I was successful in the end, thanks to your input.
I ended up substituting the ‘Fun in the Sun’ with’ Memory Box’ HD under ‘Memories’ and this was the magic solution.
I got bogged down trying to lengthen rolling end credits and lengthening a title plate that headed the Extras but I left as is in the end.
The main thing was the menus worked just fine after the change so I won’t go near Fun in the Sun again if I do another sometime.
I kept it to NTSC widescreen and it looked fine.
Many thanks again for your input.
Kindest Regards

Premier Elements 8 Audio Problem

I just got a new Dell laptop last week that came with the Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 and Premier Elements 8 bundle pre-installed.   I’ve never worked with Premier Elements before and thought I’d try my luck with it yesterday. I edited several movie clips that were taken with my Sony camera in MP4 format, joined the clips into one movie with transitions between them, and rendered the finished product in .mpg format.
The video plays fine in all programs, but the audio is a different story. It is silent in Windows Media Player and Real Player, yet plays well in Windows Media Center and Windows Movie Maker. It also plays on my Dell PC in Windows Media Player (the same program that silences it on my Dell laptop).
I'm a senior citizen and have worked a little bit with Windows Movie Maker but that is all - nothing more intricate than that program. I’d like to burn my new movie file to DVD but would first like to know what is causing the audio problem. I'm hoping it's something simple and that this aged brain can understand the "fix". Any suggestions?
Thank you for any help you can offer me.
Anne

Hello Hunt, and thank you for helping me.
Yes, you have described the problem correctly. In PrElements, all was
well with video and audio - and still is OK in two of the video players I have
on this new laptop.   However, there is no audio in the other two programs
- but only on this Dell laptop in Windows Media Player. There IS audio in
Windows Media Player on my Dell PC. That's what really confuses me.
Yes, the original file from the camera was mp4 and was exported as mpg
(MPEG). I don't remember the settings I used; I think the only thing I
changed was a quality setting. Is there a way of going back and looking at the
original settings to jot down what they were?
I think that the free version of Real Player has improved over the years
and has a few more "goodies" now than it did in previous editions.   For one,
I was able to capture an internet video in its entirety last year, and
very easily. I wanted this video (a show trailer) for a slideshow I was
creating and couldn't figure out how to get it with any other application.
That's the main reason I installed Real Player last week on this new laptop -
"just in case" I want to do this again.
I will take your advice and look into the two free players...
And, in response to your second post, WMM has given me a good start but,
unless I'm missing something, it does not have the capability of burning a
DVD. I will check out the resources link and the Training Series that you
describe, and thank you so much for your help!
Cordially,
Anne

Anne,
Welcome to the forum.
Just to make sure that I am following you, I will restate what I think you
are experiencing, and then please correct me. Along the way will be a few
questions too.
You have created a Project in PrElements, and have Imported Video (with
Audio) into the PrE Project. The files from your Sony are in MP4 format.
In PrE you have your Audio, correct?
You have then Exported/Shared that Project to an AV file as an MPEG. Do
you recall the settings chosen for that MPEG?
That Exported/Shared file plays with Audio in some players, but in others
it only plays the Video, but not the Audio. Is that correct?
Knowing the settings used to create that MPEG file might explain why some
player software does a good job, where other players have an issue.
This is an aside comment - I find that WMP, especially the later versions,
is not a good choice for a player. It seems that MicroSooft has done as
much as possible to strip it of most capabilities. Instead, I recommend two
free players,
http://gofree.com/download/Video/Media-Players/vlcmediaplayer.php?gclid=CLW6soS44KkCFQoBbA odO3L2Xg and
http://mpc-hc.sourceforge.net/. Both are excellent, and will play files, that some other players struggle
with. Again, both are free. Because all players are not created equal, I
just go with what works. If you were distributing these files to a client,
that was locked into WMP, especially the newer versions, then addressing the
issue would be worth the detective work. If that was the case, then I
would explore Exporting/Sharing to WMV format, rather than the MPEG.
I have not used RealPlayer in about a decade. I found it to be nearly
useless then, and rather ill-behaved. I will not let it near my computers,
though it has possibly been improved over the years. If you have any RealMedia,
MediaPlayer Classic HC, can be modified with a free plug-in, to allow
that. If you do not have RealMedia files (usually designated by .RM), then I
would not worry about taht. Only install what you need, when you need it. I
would just ignore RealPlayer, since it is installed.
Good luck, and hope that this was helpful. Let us know a bit more about
the MPEG settings, please.

Premier elements 10 audio sync with video

Hi,
I am new to elements.
I imported into a new project a video that also had audio as a new project.
It is a 14 minute clip.
Somehow at minute 3:19, the audio starts from the beginning again, totally ruining the movie.
I have spent all day trying to fix this.
I have uninstalled and deleted everything adobe premiere, and then reinstalled it all a couple times.
I have renamed the video and tried to import it again, but still the audio problem.
I have used Wondershare dvd builder to make the movie, the audio is fine, but adobe should be able to correct my video white balance, so I really want to use it.
I have played the video clip in media player 10, and quick time, and the audio is fine there also.
Either elements has a bug, or somehow I messed something up within elements for this clip.
I am also using in the same movie, a 6 minute clip that doesn't have this issue.
Does anyone know how to correct this?
Along the way, I also have unlinked the audio and video, chopped the first 3:19 and dragged it over, but I can't get it exact.
Since I know the source file is not the problem, I just want to somehow get rid of whatever is saved causing this, and use the correct file

Downloaded Premier Elements 9 It does not have SartSound in the Audio Tools Button. How can I get it

Having pruchased Premier Elements vis download, I obviously have not installations disc. After working on a project, I went into audio tools to open SmartSound Quicks. It was not included in the tools menu. I know you can add it to tools if you purchased Pre 9 retail and have the disc. Is this an error in that it is not included in the download version? If not, why was not downloaded and how can I get it? Is there a plugin available. Smart sound shows one I believe for Pre pro. Will that work for Pre 9?

I hope what I am telling you responds to what you would like to do.
As one of the respondents mentioned, you can't use AirPlay. What was not mentioned is you can use HomeSharing.
You need to activate Home Sharing on both your computer's iTunes/Prefs/Sharing and in Settings/iPod in the iPad. Using the iPod app, select your computer's library and initiate any requests (music) on the iPad.
Personally I believe Airsharing and Homesharing are some of the worst work I've seen come out of Apple. Its inconsistent between devices and is needlessly complicated by having two different capabilities essentially doing the same thing. Throw in the Remote app and you now have three capabilities essentially doing the same thing with different interfaces and inconsistent functionality.

With Adobe Premier Elements 13 can I add my own audio tracks by pulling music from my files and by using my UBS microphone?

With Adobe Premier Elements 13 can I add my own audio tracks by pulling music from my files and by using my USB microphone?

larryh
Please remind us on what computer operating system your Premiere Elements 13 is running
Using your own music.....
Yes, with important but.....
Details
If your music is from iTunes, more than likely you will get some sort of error message from the program when you try to import the iTunes music into Premiere Elements (most versions including 13). In that case, please convert the iTunes music to the wav version in iTunes using the following iTunes instructions.
iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format - Apple Support
If you are getting program error message using Premiere Elements 13 Add Media/Files and Folder with other than iTunes music, please give the source and properties of that music.
Using USB Microphone....Not recommended by Adobe....See Adobe ReMe
Details
As for Premiere Elements narration clips using the its Narration Tool
1. Adobe documentation indicates the USB microphone do not work in Premiere Elements and suggest the use of microphones that connect to the computer via computer jack.
But, there are some scattered cases where the user has found a USB microphone that has worked for him or her.
2. Be sure to check Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO settings to assure that Input and Output are enabled.
3. There have been reports (Premiere Elements several versions) where addition of narration using the Narration Tool results in loss of pre-existing
sound on numbered audio track clips and soundtrack.
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE12: Audio Losses After Narration Addition
4. In my particular Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 64 bit, I have found that I need to set the Mic Sensitivity all the way to the left to avoid
serious audio distortion.
I have tried to give you an overview to avoid surprises if you have not used the features that you pointed to in your thread question. Please let me know if you need further information.
Thank you.

A slide show with audio created in PSE 9 plays fine in edit. When brought to Premier Elements for dvd burn, the audio no longer plays. It appears in the edit, but no audio is played. This happens consistently. What setting might be wrong?

H-SPhoto
That Photoshop Elements 9.0.3 Update has generally been discouraged by the Photoshop Elements gurus. But, I am not going to factor that into this at this point.
This is what I would ask you to look at in the Elements Organizer 9 accessed from the Photoshop Elements 9 or Premiere Elements 9.
a. Create your slideshow in the Elements Organizer 9/Create/Slideshow/Slideshow Editor. Then use the Output option of Edit with Premiere Elements.
From your description, you are probably using the Output Option of Burn to Disc DVD which will take your slideshow directly in the Disc Menu section of Premiere Elements 9. The preferred transfer of the Elements Organizer 9 slideshow to Premiere Elements 9 Editor is by the non wmv route "Edit with Premiere Elements" not the wmv route of Burn to Disc DVD.
Let us explore if any of the above is involved in your issue and then we will decide what next if necessary.

AVI files loaded in Premier Elements 7 only show audio and not video.

I am a new user of Premier Elements 7 and am having problems getting the video into a new project I set up. I have 6 AVI v1.0 clips that play both audio and video in Windows 7, but when I set up a project and import them, I only get the audio side and not the video side. I can drag the audio to the timeline and can play the audio just fine. But it is missing the video. I must be doing something wrong, but am new enough that I don't know where to turn.
I have been reading the forums and taking tutorials, so I think I know the steps to import a video into PRE7. I've tried many things, but still no video. I downloaded GSpot and found that my files have video H264 (H.264/MPEG-4 AVC) and audio oxooo2 (ADPCM). The codecs seem to be installed on my Windows 7 computer.
Can someone point me in the right direction on what to do next. I'm a computer professional with 50 years of experience, so am no dummy, but am new to PRE7. Thanks in advance.

I found a mini-CD that came with the product. When I loaded it on my computer, one of the options was to install a device driver. I did this and now I can see the video in PRE7. So, I think this solves my problem.
I applaud the mfgr. of the Insignia. This is the way that it should be with ALL cameras, that do not use a miniDV tape, or precise CODEC, that is mainstream. All too often, the mfgrs. tweak an existing CODEC, and just leave the customer hanging, trying to find a way to edit the footage. A couple of major mfgrs. come immediately to my mind.
Others, who use CODEC's, like Xvid, that is so heavily compressed, that even converting it to an editable format/CODEC results in such horrible footage, that no one would ever be satisfied with the finished product.
<Soapbox Mode Off>
Glad that you are now up and editing. For my education, what does G-Spot say about the CODEC in the Insignia footage? At least next time that I encounter it, I can say - "look in the box, and install the driver to get the CODEC."
Thanks for reporting,
Hunt

Adobe Premier Elements 10 has stopped working error message/Audio issues

I'm working on a project for about a week. I almost finished it, "shared" it to my computer, and watched it thru windows media player. I thought of something else that I could add to the audio, so I went back into the project in PE10 and put small (2-3 seconds) audio clips on audio track 3. Once I did that, PE 10 would not allow me to put any audio effects on that track. (I went into some older longer projects that I have and it allowed me to put effects on any audio track).
So, I moved my short audio clips to the Narration and Soundtrack tracks. It finally highlighted the App;y button for the audio effects. Now, the problem is that I can't play or click onthe timeline or move the timeline indicator without PE10 closing out of my video. As soon as I try to do anything, it says "Adobe Premier Elements 10 has stopped working" and it closes the program.
I can open my other projects and everything seems to work fine on those and it doesn't close out, but it won't allow me to do anything in this particular project.
Again, I have been going into and out of the project for a week and all of the sudden it won't let me work on it. It's only about a 3 minute project, so I don't know why it would have trouble.
Oh, and it also un-rendered everything.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

In premier elements ...how do you render the menu screen?

I have Premier Elements . Do you render the menu screens for more clarity?

Welcome to the forum.
When you say render Menus, exactly what do you mean?
The reason that I ask is that for smoothest playback, one can Render the Timeline, but as the Menus are added in the authoring phase, after one has edited the Timeline, they do not get Rendered per se, though that does happen to a degree, when one Previews the DVD/BD.
I sense that there might be an issue with the Menus, that you are using. If that is correct, then it might be best to give us the details of first, your Project Settings, and then which Menus you are using. I suspect that there might be a mis-match there.
Next, please let us know where you are seeing a problem with the Menus, such as in Preview, or when you burn a disc, and play it on a set top player, attached to a TV.
The more detail that you can provide, the better, as it will be easier to diagnose any problem, and offer solutions.
Good luck,

I can't remove Yandex Elements from the Open menu list with right mouse button and Tools menu although I removed Yandex. I think it slows down Firefox.

I downloaded Freeyoutube downloader from internet and somehow got yandex installed in my computer with toolbars on firefox.Despite I removed Yandex from my computer Yandex elements still stays in open menu when right mouse button clicked and in the Tools menu. I tried to uninstall Firefox, remove yandex registry from windows registry and restart computer, and then reinstall firefox, Yandex elements still hangs there. Firefox is now running very slow compared to the running before Yandex.

hello, please try all these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to the firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.

Premier Elements 11 Output Audio?

I just upgraded to Version 11.
What is the highest level of audio output does it support? The project starting option selections imply it supports 5.1 surround sound.
Is this true or does the sound get collapsed to two channels upon output?
Premier Elements 11, running under Windows 7

Steve is correct.
PrE can ingest DD 5.1 SS Audio, but can only output to 2-channel (Stereo). There will be a mix-down.
Even Premiere Pro has that limitation, with one difference. In PrPro, there is an optional (~ US $350) plug-in from Minnetonka Audio/SurCode, that WILL Transcode the output to DD 5.1 SS via a DD AC3 file. That works very well, and most of my Projects have a DD 5.1 SS Master, then I Transcode to the DD AC3, for use on my DVD-Videos and BD's. I also use the Minnetonka Audio DTS Encoder, when I want DTS, along with DD 5.1 SS, but as DTS is a "supplemental" Audio Stream, I must use either Stereo, or DD 5.1 SS as the "primary" Audio Stream, then allow the user to switch to DTS, if desired.
Good luck,

Premier elements 4 adding text to disk menu

Hello,
     I am trying to follow another post in this forum describing how to add additional text to the main menue like a subtitle and I can't seem to make it work. It was mentioned to creat a new folder and copy the original stuff to it that you plan on modifing, and I have done that and it shows up in premier elements in the template selection arrea, so that part is good so far.
     My trouble is when I go to modify the PSD file and save it, then open premier the change is not there. So I know I'm missing something. Every time I open the modified file in Photoshop its there with the modification so I dont know if im not saving it correctly or if I'm mdifing the wrong file just not sure and would appreciate any assistance I can get thank you.

Thank you so much for the fast reply,
     I tried the naming of the file to "_mod" and that still did not seem to fix it either.
Here is what I have done so far.
1 I found the dvd template folder and created a new folder in it called "Modified"
2 I then went to my new folder and created another folder in it called "Holliday"
3 I then went to the origingal template folder that i wanted to modify "hollyberries" and selected all and copied all the content in that folder.
4 I then went backinto the folder that i made called "DVD Templates\Modified\Holliday" and pasted it all in there so it was now in both folders.
5 I then had to change the atribue from archive so i could modify it.
6 I then opened the "hollyberies_hd_mm.psd" file in my new folder with PhotoShop Elements 6 and added a text box to it and saved it as
    "hollyberries_mod_hd_mm.psd" per your instruction.
7 I then renamed the "hollyberries_hd_sm.psd" file to "hollyberries_mod_hd_sm.psd. (I did this part in windows in the folder not PhotoShop)
8 I then opened up Premier Elements andmy project I was working on and went to the "menu" tab and in the drop down list selected my "Modified" goup and the template the it was showing in the preview did not have the change on it. So I tried to apply it to my project anyway, hopping it would be there but it was not.
Also I have the text layer just above the "foreground" layer in the list, the other thing is when I originally tried to save the new file I left all the save options like they were with the "include in the organizer" checked and "Save in version set with the original" checked but that changed the name to add "edited-1" to the end of the name so I unchecked that and saved again. And the save "Layers" is checked and "as a copy" is not bit that ws default.
Do you have any more ideas or can you tell me what I'm still doing wrong?
I am also not able to see the atachment on your post so I am not sure if my layer is in the correct place or not.
Again thank you for the reply and help.
