Premiere Elements 11 Mac Timeline rendering issue

Every time I try to render my video in Premiere Elements 11 on my Mac the program shuts down.  Please help,

briank
What are the formats on the Premiere Elements 11 Mac Timeline whose contents you are rendering to get the best possible preview? Do you have this problem with specific media source, and does the problem go away in a new project?
When you drag your file as the first file dragged to the Timeline, do you get an orange line over it or is there no colored line over it then?
If at this point there is an orange line over that content and you Timeline render, is that when you get the crash?
Or, does the crash occurs when you are doing a Timeline render because you have just edited one of the Timeline components? If this is the case,
what effects did you apply to the source and what edits did you perform on it?
If you go to the Adobe Premiere Elements Preview Files Folder in the Adobe Folder, how many preview files are piled up there?
Is your computer connected to the Internet? And, are you getting messages about rendering activation needed at the Timeline level?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thank you.

  • Premiere Elements 12 - Timeline Rendering Question.

    Hello All.
    When I add my video files to my timeline, press the "Render" button for a smoother timeline, after the process has finished, the quality looks terrible. Am I doing something wrong?

    More later in the morning. But just leaving you with some things to check out.
    In Premiere Elements 12, the render indicator system is
    You are getting the best possible preview, no rendering possible since you already have best preview
    no colored line over Timeline content
    green line over Timeline content
    You are not getting best possible preview, rendering possible
    orange line over the Timeline content
    Above the Timeline is the Work Area Bar with two gray tabs. Those tabs need to span the whole content to be rendered. Are your gray tabs of the Work Area Bar doing that? If not, move them to span the content to be rendered. Keyboard shortcuts are
    Alt + [ for the left gray tab at the start of the content
    Alt+] for the right gray tab at the end of the content
    If none of the above factors into your present situation, you might want to post a screenshot of your Timeline setup in the Expert workspace of your Premiere Elements 12.
    Thanks.

  • Can you change Premiere Elements 13 timeline to act like Premiere Pro CS4?

    Hi there,
    I recently started using Premiere Elements 13 after previously having used Premiere Pro CS4 (both mac versions if that makes a difference). All is great but I have encountered one major difference which makes Elements 13 a bit of a pain and was wondering if it was changeable. Basically, when you alter the length of a clip that's touching up against another one they remain stuck together and everything else in the timeline shifts up accordingly. In Premiere Pro CS4 if you changed the length of a clip joined to another (where the two join) it would simply create a gap. Frankly, I find the latter a much better way of working. What I tend to use Premiere for on the whole is adding still images to a voice track rather than working with video clips with linked audio. I know this isn't exactly what Premiere is designed for but it worked so much better in CS4 and wondered if you could tweak Premiere Elements 13 to behave a bit more like CS4.
    Any help much appreciated!

    Hold down the Ctrl key as you shorten the duration of a clip using the mouse cursor. That should give you the gap that you seek. That works for Premiere Elements Windows. (I am strictly an Elements Windows user.)
    With your Premiere Elements Mac computer, try holding down the Command key as you shorten the duration of a clip using the mouse cursor.
    Please let us know if that worked for you.
    Thank you.

  • Premiere elements 10 timeline dragging problem

    Hi .. I have installed Premiere Elements 10.0 Trial version and am seeing a problem with the user interface when I drag a clip within the timeline.
    The screen-image from the top part of the user-interface  becomes the background of the timeline section when a clip is dragged within the timeline - see attached images (before dragging, and during dragging).
    I saw there was a Java runtime issue for Lion, so I have now installed this - didn't fix the issue (unless I have to reinstall PRE after I've installed the runtime).
    I am running the following system:
    MacBook Pro 13-inch, Early 2011
    Processor  2.3 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory  4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
    Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 (11C74)
    Any thoughts welcomed, thanks,
    Adam
    [UPDATE] I see this is a known issue.

    Thanks for the feedback Steve ..
    In the screen-grabs above, the video clip was from an old VHS imported to iMovie (using a canopus ADVC-55).  I'm sure you are right - the settings wouldn't have been matching .. although I didn't keep the project so I can't check (it was a jpeg still on video 1).
    Ihave now tried again - with project settings matching the video clip file (DV PAL 25 fps 720 x 576), no jpegs, and the red lines are gone .. but the problem is still there when I drag a clip within the timeline (even if there's just one clip in the project).  As mentioned in my edit, I see there is a known issue with Mac OS X Lion and PRE in the Timeline .. link here, although that says there are colour artifacts in the Timeline where I'm seeing the screen-image from above duplicated as the background, but I'm sure it's the same bug.
    .. thanks again - helpful stuff I didn't know.

  • Premiere Elements 12 Not rendering all my footage Windows 8.1

    I read other topics but what I found was only for Mac computers. I can't get all my footage to render it will only render the first 2 or 3 % and act like it's complete when it is not.. I know it's not the footage itself because I've been working on this project on and off for weeks and have rendered this project many time before with no problem at all. It just started to day. I don't know what else to do but start over and that will be the third time I've restarted this one  project that should even take this long! It's driving me nuts!
    Please Help!

    Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit).
    1. For the footage that you want to render to get the best possible preview....is there an orange line over that content before you hit the Render button?
    2. Look to the area above the Timeline, to the Work Area Bar and its 2 gray tabs. Are those gray tabs set to span the whole content of the footage that has the orange line over it?
    Hope I caught you before you started over. We should be able to figure this out and save you the time involved
    with a re-do.

  • Premiere Elements 12 not rendering

    I am working on a project and I noticed that in two clips brought in (both MP4) were not rendering.  In fact, there was not even a red line above the clips.  The other two MP4 clips rendered fine and show the green line.  So I deleted the two clips and then added them back fresh.  They now have an orangish line (not red) and they are not rendering to provide the green line to show they have been rendered.
    Any help on this is appreciated!

  • Premiere Elements 4.0 burn issue

    Premiere Elements 4.0 with Windows XP (both pre-loaded on a Dell computer purchased new in 2007).  I am able to create *.prel files with no problem and I had been able to burn projects up to 5-hr length to DVD with no problem until recently.   Starting October 2013 I have frequently had difficulty burning to DVD; although I have successfully burned projects ranging from 45 minutes to 4.5 hours.  Current projects are about 3 hours.  I'd rather create two 4.5-hour projects rather than three 3-hr projects, but have not been able to get a successful burn of more than three hours lately.  No 3D effects or still shots, just video clips from the same camera, so all those clips are the same format.  There are one or two video files from a camera phone, but this file format had not prevented a successful burn in other projects.  There are titles, and transitions between some clips.  I get "media transcoding " error or "Elements has encountered a problem and needs to shut down" error.  I have tried to save to folder, and export to avi or to mp3 file.  These work arounds have never been successful for me.  Is there some known, fairly recent (i.e. circa October 2013), Windows issue that interferes with Premiere Elements?  It has been very difficult to debug these issues, since I always have to wait to kick off a new burn overnight, and only find out in the morning if it was successful.

    Lots of questions....
    1. Your mention of burn to folder failures seems to take the focus off your burner or disc at the core of your issue and focus it on the Timeline content and other Premiere Elements workflow related factors.
    Premiere Elements 4 on any computer is a 32 bit application with all the resource limitations of 32 bit. So, I wonder about these large projects as well as burn to in that situation. Are you doing SD or HD projects? What are the properties of the video that you have on these Timelines?
    Have you looked for pile ups of preview files, conformed audio, and conformed video?
    What is the menu marker situation? Are Timeline menu markers in these projects? If so, have you checked the spacing between them? Are you using stop markers? If so, do you have one placed at the end of the last item on the Timeline?
    Have you expanded the Timeline with the -+ slider to inspect the tracks for leftovers presenting as very thin vertical black lines scattered about? And, also looked for other irregularities, such as graps in audio or other, transitions placement, etc.?
    If it were not for your burn to folder results, I would suggest looking at additionally
    another batch of disc - what brand/type being used
    burn to folder - taking the VIDEO_TS from the saved folder to DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc with ImgBurn
    getting a new burner - maybe on the old, looking for firmware and/or driver updates
    But none of them seems indicated by the problem description that you offer. And, any involvement of a NVIDIA video card in this equation does not seem indicated since the recent NVIDIA video card Premiere Elements display issue referred to has been specific since the start to Premiere Elements 10 users with NVIDIA video cards. There the fix for these users has been rolling back the video card driver version rather than assuring that they had the latest version of the video card driver.

  • Premiere Elements 11 AVI Audio Issue

    Hey there,
    I'm fairly new to this software and am playing around in it to get a feel so bear with me if I'm completely overlooking the source of my problem.
    When I import my video to the editor, about an 8 minute .avi clip, the video plays at regular speed but the audio sounds like it's slowed immensly. (A low growl, can't tell if it's only bass or the audio slowed to 400% about.) I've tried speeding up the clip (audio included) and it just becomes a faster version of the slow growl audio. The original video plays fine in the clip organizer and in windows media. I've tried saving, rendering, etc. but it doesn't help. Non .avi clips seem to work fine, it's just the one's from my screen recorder (which may be the issue) that 'brake.' I hope someone understands what my problem is, any misunderstandings, feel free to ask.
    Thanks for your time, cheers.

  • Premiere Elements 10 timeline playback pictures keep freezing

    Hi, I'm using Premiere Elements 10 and when I playback my timeline, most of the time at least part of the video pictures freeze or judder whilst the sound stays continuous. This is obviously a total nightmare in terms of trying to edit! I am new to Elements (am used to editing on Avid and FCP) - am not very impressed so far!
    I have established that it is not a problem with my laptop. Also - when I start up Elements it gives me a link to this page http://www.adobe.com/special/premiereel/downloads/ saying I need to update BUT all those updates seems to be for "themed content" - so I am assuming that a) I don't need them and b) that they are unrelated to the freezing issue - Is that right?
    Any help hugely appreciated!
    Thanks.

    Thank you for the screen grab. You're right. The MOV video from the DSLR does seem to be matched to the project settings. (I assume you've got the latest version of Quicktime installed.) So it could be that your system is just lugging.
    Your hardware is good for basic video editing -- but you're editing 1920x1080 24p. With version 10, that can be a bit demanding for a dual core running at 1.8 ghz. Particularly on a laptop, which tends to have a slower throughput.
    You still haven't said what operating system you're using or how much RAM you have. But if you're running Windows 7 or 8 at 64-bit and you have at least 4 gigs of RAM, you may want to download the demo of Premiere Elements 11. It's got a much more efficient HD engine that runs at 64-bit on those OSes.
    One of my computers is a dual-core Intel running at 2.6ghz, and the difference in the way it handles AVCHD video in Premiere Elements 10 and the way it handles it in Premiere Elements 11 is like day and night.
    It's possible Bill or Neale or John or ATR or another of the regulars on this forum have additional thoughts. But, based on the questions you did answer, that's about all I can offer. Sorry.

  • Premiere Elements 9 "white screen" issue

    Hello All,
    I recently bought a Canon HFR100 and am new to video editing, and decided to give the PRE9 Trial version a spin..
    My issue is, after installing the trial, and messing around for a few days, all of a sudden I get a white screen for a preview, instead of the viewer with the watermark in my editor. if I double click a video file, ANY video file, no matter what video type I chose for my project file, I get this white screen. The audio is playing fine, but no video, just the white screen. (see image for the white area)
    I've searched the forum for an answer, tried possible solutions (unistall - reinstall quicktime & Flash, added codecs, reinstalled the trial version. etc)...I just dont get it. Nothing else had changed, to my knowledge.
    It's also a new home built machine: Intel i5, 4gb ram, Vista32, EGVA GTS450 Display card....no other problems...
    Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking for good software to edit my son's hockey games, and I was looking at purchasing the full version, but I'm concerned it I do, I'll have the same problem (if it's a corrupt file, somewhere).
    Thanks!

    I am having the same issue -- white screen with all video files, can hear audio but can't see any video when previewing thumbnails or rendering previews or video --
    I have a different configuration:
    Dell Precision M6300
    graphics card: NVIDIA Quadro FX3600M
    OS: Windows XP
    Intel Cor 2 Duo CPU
    T9300 @ 2.5Ghz
    2.47 Gh, 3.50 GB of RAM
    I've updated the driver...
    Quicktime...
    Disabled my anti-virus...
    I've been messing with this since I installed the trial a week ago but still have not been able to get Premiere Elements to work and try.  Any suggestions?

    I downloaded Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12 (after checking the system requirements) but the serial numbers Adobe gave me are for that software but for version 13 which will not work on the iMac OS I have (Needs 10.8 and above).  I need to get the correct serial numbers but Adobe chat says it isn't possible and have to use 13. Am I stuck with Version 13?

    I would look for some means of contacting someone relative to the Education Exchange.  I have no familiarity with it myself so I can't direct you anywhere, but maybe they have their own contact links or forum for discussion.
    Do you have some problem with using version 13 or is it just that you acquired the files thru interface you show?  If you have serial numners for 13 and your machine can handle it, go for getting it...

  • Premiere elements 10 bad resoulotion issue.

    I have a project for school and am using premiere elements ten to edit, which I need to do since it is my personal favourite for school media projects. And i habe downloaded youtube videos with video downloader from firefox. And when i play them they are good quality on any program except when I am editing on premeire. Any help would be amazing. Thanks.

    Downloaded video from YouTube does not make the best source material for Premiere Elements. This is because it has been transcoded and compressed once by the person who posted it to the site, then transcoded and compressed again by YouTube then transcoded and compressed AGAIN by the software you used to download it. Also, a lot depends on the quality and resolution of the footage posted to YouTube and the quality and format of the video your software used to download it. (There are dozens of programs that download video from YouTube and vary wildly in quality.)
    You also need to consider how compatible the video format is you downloaded and which settings you used in Premiere Elements when you set up your project.
    In short, there are a lot of variables here -- but the short answer is that you're just not going to get good, editable video from YouTube. And even if you do get acceptable footage, it's pretty much impossible for it to be as good as first generation video directly from a camcorder.
