Premiere Elements 10 doesn't always play

I've been using PRE 10 since it was launched, and PRE 9 before that. No major problems, just a few hiccups.
I havn't changed or knowingly installed anything on my PC, but although everything else still works, when I press the 'Play' button sometimes nothing happens, no error message, program doesn't crash. It just doesn't play. The Pause button shows, so it thinks it's playing.
When this happens there's no way of recovering, I just save my work, and then stop and start PRE10. This usually fixes the problem for a few minutes, then it happens again a fewminutes later, and I have to repeat the process.
Anyoone seen this before.
Cheers,
Bernie

Hi Steve, thanks for the reply.
I was just about to reply about the project settings to say it was happening on older projects where the projects settings worked fine first time around, when a little light bulb went off!
It only seems to be happening on PRE9 projects, the most recent PRE10 ones seem fine so far (I went back to edit a few older films just to improve them a little). That being the case it's not too much of a problem because I only have a couple more to do.
With regard to your other questions, my PC is an i7 WIN 7 64 bit, 8gb of RAM, I run Malware bytes and Uniblue registry cleaner quite regularly and I always wash my hands after using the toilet!
Generally speaking I'm really happy with PRE10 and think it's brilliant, but are there any known issues editing PRE9 projects using PRE10?
Cheers,
Bernie

  • Premiere Elements doesn't see my Siig USB capture device.

    The topic heading pretty much say's it all. My webcam shows up as a capture device, but not my Siig. I don't remember the model of the Siig and it's not printed on the device, but it was cheap ($29). However, the crappy capture software that came with it sees it fine, as does Windows Media Encoder. So, why not Premiere Elements?

    "Premiere Elements doesn't capture video over a USB connection"
    I'm a bit surprised by that, but it would perfectly explain what I'm experiencing. Thanks.

  • Premiere elements 7 error while playing text animation

    I installed premiere elements 7 on my 64 bit windows 7 os. Everything has worked fine so far except when I play a clip that involves text animation. It starts to play then freezes. A box pops up and says "Adobe Premiere Elements.exe has stopped working" Windows tries to detect the problems and it says, "A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly windows will close the program and notify you if a solution."
    The is a brand new computer and meets all of the requirements. I have it installed on my laptop using Vista with no problem.
    thanks

    Windows 7 64-bit seems to be causing a lot of problems for Premiere Elements users. This is not a problem with the program or the operating system. It's most likely related to the OS's 64-bit drivers, which are not yet fully compatible with 32-bit programs.
    Have you gone to Windows Updates and ensured you have even the non-critical updates (particularly the hardware drivers)?
    If it is a Dell, have you gone to the Dell site, looked up your model and ensured you have all of the Dell updates?
    Do you have the latest version of Quicktime?
    These are not guaranteed to fix your problem. You are, after all, using a brand-new 64-bit operating system that has not yet fully evolved. But they'll certainly increase the odds in your favor.

  • What can be done to correct slow video or freezing in Adobe Premiere Elements 12? Sound plays fine but the video is too slow to even start a project.

    Sound plays fine but the video is too slow to even start a project.

    film78
    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? Have you updated 12 to 12.1 yet? If not, please do so by using an opened project's Help Menu/Update.
    Not enough information in order to help you.
    Looking for
    1. Properties of source media (including file extension and brand/model/settings of camera that recorded the video).
    2. Is problem restricted to one particular file in one particular project? What happens if you start a new project? What is the
    duration and size of the project when performance is slow and freezing sets in? What are you doing in the program when this happens?
    3. Using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    4. Does problem exist if antivirus and firewall(s) are disabled?
    5. Please describe computer environment, including dating on video card/graphics card driver version. Did you install the program to the
    default Local Disk C? Where are the Scratch Disks directed and how much free space there?
    Lots more questions, but let us start here and then decide what next based on your reply.
    Thank you.

  • Premiere Elements 10 - can't play back imported HD video (from Canon HV30) in Quicktime or FCP

    After playing around with the trial version, I eagerly purchased Photoshop Elements 10 Premiere for its ability to edit video from my Sony Cybershot camera (Final Cut Pro would not do this) and for its ability to import video from my Canon HV30 HD camcorder (Final Cut Pro is really fussy on this).
    Also liked the option of importing without breaking in to individual scenes.  FCP and iMovie won't do this.
    So, after the first import of a tape, I discover that the imported file will NOT play via Quicktime, and when I imported that file into Final Cut Pro, I got the eternal circle icon which lead to a crash.  
    What's going on here?

  • Outlook doesn't always play sounds

    I have the latest office 365 + win8.1 and outlook doesn't play sounds all the time. It seems to play sounds after I have gone through the advanced settings and told it where the reminder.wav file but if I reboot my PC the sounds are gone again.
    there is no "test" button to prove it can play anything, you just have to send yourself an email or calendar event to test it.
    Outlook might be trying to send the sounds to my motherboard audio instead of the Bose but who knows.  I tried disabling all of the other sound devices except for my Bose sound but that didn't help. 
    I REALLY want the sounds, the program is close to worthless without it.

    I ended up using the Visual Basic for outlook ( ALT-F11 from outlook ) I got from
    http://www.shayatik.com/2014/01/how-to-set-outlook-2013-calendar-reminders-to-stay-on-top-and-in-focus/ 
    this code never fails to play a sounds for me, it might play twice but I don't care.. it's better than if it never played.
    it also does a pop-up message box
    Private Declare Function sndPlaySound32 Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "sndPlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszSoundName As String, ByVal uFlags As Long) As Long
    Private Sub Application_NewMail()

  • Mousing over some UI elements doesn't always display the correct pointer

    When I mouse over some elements in a UI, sometimes the mouse cursor isn't correct. For example, when typing this message, if I open up 'Launchpad' by using the gesture, my mouse cursor stays as the text cursor, not the mouse pointer arrow, as I would expect.
    This is only one example.. i've noticed it happens in many other instances.

    My problem seems to be solved.  My Norton Internet Protection software notified me that the Photoshop Auto Analyzer was using a lot of CPU and memory.  I shut off all Media Analysis in PSE-11, and I have not had any of the problems I mentioned in my posted question.
    I am surprised that my PC chokes up and causes errors when Media Analysis is on.  Has anyone seen this before?

  • Premiere Elements 10 Video Stops Playing

    I've been using PE10 since March of 2012 without issue. Sometime within the past 2 weeks a problem with the video transport has occured. Video and audio play fine but as soon as it tranitions to a still image the video holds on the image while the audio plays on and the video will not change to another image or video during playback unless I click on the preview window. I have reinstalled PE10 twice with no luck. I updated my OS and videocard drivers and ran several files through gspot that I learned about here on these forums. Nothing.
    Does anyone have any idea why PE10 would suddenly malfunction after working just fine for a year and a half? My comp specs are as follows:
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1
    Core i7 cpu (2.2 Ghz)
    nvidia Geforce GTX 560M videocard
    8G memory
    1T storage (2 500GB Harddrives)
    Any help resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    HI A.T.
    Your questions got me retracing my steps and I finally figured it all out. Sept. 3rd was the last project I did without any problems. On Sept. 6th, I updated the drivers from version 320.49 to 326.80. Last week I started a new project which is when I first noticed the problem. Yesterday I checked for updates and installed the latest drivers, version 327.23. Apparently neither 326.80 nor 327.23 installed completely because I just tried to install both of them again and got a message saying "The NVIDIA OpenGL driver detected a problem with the display driver and is unable to continue. The application must close." I must not have been paying attention the first time.
    So long story short, for anyone who may have this same problem and search these forums for a solution:
    drivers 320.49 GOOOOD
    drivers 326.80 and 327.23 BAAAAD (at least for my system)
    I'll try again with the next update and post the results here.
    Thanks again A.T.!

  • First few moments of the video render as just a black screen - Premiere Elements 9

    Hello,
    I'm putting together a short, 8-second demo clip of a particular moment of my project in Premiere Elements 9. The section involves two clips which were taken seperately, but are cut in half with the crop function so that they both play on the screen at once. There are also some position and brightness adjustments of one of the clips to ensure they match up.
    However, I have begun seeing strange behaviour when I attempt to render the clip and as so far I have not been able to get a usable copy. When rendered as a .wmv, one of the two clips is inexplicably cropped from the bottom up to about a quarter of the height of the scene, despite not being so in the editor. Furthermore, when rendered as an MPEG, the format I would prefer the file to be in, although I do not get the first problem I get an issue where the first 20-23 frames of the video refuse to play in an external video player. I tried both windows media player and VLC. Instead, the section of the video appears as either a black screen, a black screen with a white line on it, or, if the video timeline is scrolled back to the start, the last frame viewed. The music clip which accompanies the video however still plays during this section, and the error is not seen at all in the editor. Oddly, if one of the rendered files is imported back into Premiere Elements 9, and played within the error, the 20-or-so frames will indeed play. It seems it is only the Premiere Elements editor that can play these frames.
    I'm utterly at a loss here. I don't mind too much not being able to export as .wmv, as it is not my first choice, but if anyone could help me with the MPEG rendering I would be very grateful.
    The source files are AVCHD (.mts) files, at a resolution of 1440x1080. There is only one "clip change" at the point where the video becomes viewable again, but this is merely where I have split the same clip to perform a brightness change, as I have many times in the video elsewhere.
    Thank you for any help,
    Black.

    Here's a screencap of my interface, although I blurred out the video preview section (it doesn't contain anything relevant anyway).
    I would like to avoid posting a copy of the video if I can help it - I doubt my actors would be too pleased with me posting them around the internet.
    As for the project settings, when I first imported the clips Elements informed me that my project preset was incorrect for the clips and automatically picked one to fit them, so I'm sure that that's all set up fine. All the footage is from the same camcorder, except for a splash screen image, of the correct resolution, which flashes up at the end.
    I have used assets of the same format previously and with no isses.

  • Converting 1080/50p video for import into Premiere Elements

    Hi there,
    I'm currently looking into buying an HD camcorder, and editing software to go with it.  I'm considering getting a camcorder which can record in 1080/50p for future-proofing, however I see that Premiere Elements doesn't currently support 1080/50p editing.  I was wondering whether I could sensibly shoot video in 1080/50p for archiving, but convert it down to either 1080/50i or 720/50p prior to importing into Premiere?  Is there a suitable intermediate input format which Premiere supports and which wouldn't result in a significant loss of quality due to the extra transcoding step?
    Also, what is the recommended system requirement for 1080/50i and 720/50p editing?  I have a 2007 Macbook (2.2 GHz Core2 Duo, 4GB RAM), would that be sufficient?
    Thank you.

    Thanks a lot for the very quick response Steve.
    I suspect shooting 1080/50i is likely to be the way to go, I'll obviously have a play once I get the camera.  I just wanted to check whether it's feasible to shoot in 1080/50p, but convert to 720/50p prior to importing into Premiere Elements.  That way I can keep a copy of the 1080/50p clip to use in a few years time when the consumer editing software has caught up.
    If I were to do that, what's the recommended file format to convert to prior to import?  Is there something similar to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec) which is fast to convert to and edit from - ideally I'd rather not convert to 720/50p H.264.  Is there a list of Premiere Elements' supproted input formats somewhere?

  • Premiere Elements 12 - Gaps in audio playback

    Hello everyone!
    I have a problem with Adobe Premiere Elements 12: when I play video in timeline or preview window, there are lots of gaps and pauses in audio playback, even though video is playing smoothly. Usually the pattern goes like this: 2 seconds of clean audio - 0,5 seconds silence - 2 seconds of clean audio... etc.
    I have tried the following:
    - change audio buffer settings
    - change audio device (I have tested with integrated audio chip ("High Definition Audio"), M-Audio Fast Track Pro and cheap USB audio interface - same results with all of them)
    - start a new project with correct settings and import only one file
    - disable background antivirus monitoring
    Usually source material is AVCHD 1440x1080 25fps (PAL, MTS-file) from small Sony camera, but this problem seems to continue even if I insert only still photo and mp3 audio to timeline. CPU load is about 6% during playback. It seems like Premiere Elements makes these gaps to playback signal before sending it to audio hardware?
    Computer specs: Intel Core i7-4770 @ 3,4GHz, 16 GB RAM, 128GB SSD drive for OS & software and 2.0TB 7200 rpm drive for video, Intel HD Graphics 4600, Windows 8 (64bit).
    I would be really grateful if someone could give me some tips to solve this annoying audio playback problem.
    EDIT: I forgot to mention that this problem occurs all the time - even when video is rendered in timeline.

    Thanks for the quick response, TonyPh12345.  Clearly not what I was hoping for but not unexpected. BB
