Premiere Elements 3.0.2 AVCHD-Lite Support???

Typically you will see that Premiere Elements 7 was the first version to support AVCHD (video codec MPEG-4 AVC/H.264). I have seen reported support for AVCHD in an earlier version, Premiere Elements 4, when that program was installed in one of the Sony Vaio computers which had a Sony Add On Component to allow for AVCHD support.
But, what about AVCHD-Lite (which has the video codec MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, but frame size typically 1280 x 720 instead of the AVCHD's 1920 x 1080 square pixels or 1440 x 1080 HD anamorphic? Does anyone know if Premiere Elements versions earlier than version 7 will support AVCHD-Lite. I have one report of a user claiming to be doing so with Premiere Elements 3.0.2 using video described as MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, 640 x 480, @ 30 frames per second.
Thanks for any information on this matter.

Many thanks for the information. I had not run across anyone before claiming to get AVCHD or AVCHD-Lite to work in Premiere Elements 3.0.2. So, the post in question really had me thinking "there is something wrong with this picture".
I will try to get more information from the user to determine what "break through" the user has made versus something else.
Thanks again.

Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor: how to get support when you purchase at Apple Store?

[Moving to Premiere Elements... JTS]
I purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor software at Apple Store in May/11/2013.
I could use the product no more than 2 times because it started to have problems to open, since then I could not use anymore. In December, when I was trying to use the software again, I couldn't and started to call Apple and Adobe to try to solve my problems.
Apple Support advise me to uninstall my Operational System (@Mavericks) and to install back the older version @Mac_OS_X_Lion_10.7. I did that and Adobe didn't work again. IT downloaded to my computer, but it couldn't be opened. As you can see the print screens below.
After many tries going back and force to Adobe and Apple and now that the software is no longer available in Apple Store I am not sure why, I did not even had chance to try to reinstall and Apple said that they can't do anything. Also Adobe says that I can't get any help besides these forums because I have no Serial Number to provide (Apple never provided me this number).
Anyone had a similar situation like mine? I would appreciate to have some help on this.

Hi ATR,
Thank you very much for your contact. This is the first person from both companies so far who tries to really help me.
As follows are your answers, I would appreciate if I could get some help with that matter.
SERIAL NUMBER FOR MY PRODUCT: The only document I have is the Invoice from Apple/iTunes Store (image below) for my Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor purchase, which I believe makes Apple responsible for my product as well. However, last time I talked to Apple, the advisor who spoke to me said that Apple could not do anything else, since the product was no longer available in their Store. Neversthless, Apple never provided me the serial number for the product, which I bought from Apple Store and downloaded directly to my computer. On the other side, all the times I called Adobe, the representatives could not attend me because I don't have the serial number to provide to it.
What is the present situation
a. Do you have Premiere Elements 11 Editor installation files saved to your computer?
Ans: It disappeared from Apple Store in my computer and from iTunes Store as well. However, the software was in my computer before as can be seen in the images below:
b. Is Premiere Elements 11 Editor currently installed on your computer?
Ans: It was installed in my computer when I bought it, and I did use it in 2 occasions. However, after I started to face the problem trying to open the software and use it, Apple advised me to change my Operational System from Mavericks to Mac OS X Lion 10.7 to be able to work with Adobe Premiere Elements 11, since it could be facing problems with Mavericks. After have installed Mac OS X Lion, I tried to install Adobe Premiere again, but now it is not even possible to do from the Apple Store.
c. If you went to http://www.adobe.com, signed in there with your Adobe ID and Password, and went to My Products, do you see your Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor listed there and does it include the serial number?
Ans: My Adobe ID doesn't show Adobe Premiere, so that's one more reason why I don't have the serial number for my product. The only document I have for it is the Apple Store invoice and through it I can't have other number besides the order # or invoice # from Apple.
d. Miscellaneous...Did you ever have QuickTime installed on your computer with the Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor?...Are your computer preferences and privileges OK?...What is your current computer operating system?
Ans: I used to have my Quick Time when I used Adobe Premiere in my computer. Since came back to Mac OS X Lion 10.7, many softwares were lost when the Operating System was changed.
I hope I have provided enough information, but please let me know if you have any questions.
Best,

Premiere Elements 12 and Davinci Resolve Lite

I'm reaching out to see if anyone is currently using Davinci Resolve Lite along with PE12.
Can't seem to find any info regarding a Workflow of color correcting / editing using these two programs.
There are several regarding Premiere Pro, but not PE.
As I have reviewed several Davinci tutorials and even have gone through their 754 pg manual, the references are to PremierePro and FinalCut, understandably.
A lot of it seems to revolve around the fact that exports are done using XML, EDL, CDL, etc. formats, which I don't believe PE has the ability to import.
But, there is no mention if there are other export formats that could be utilized in PE.
In any event, if anyone is using Davinci with PE, I would appreciate some input regarding your Workflow.
Regards,
-Vito

ATR -
Yes I contacted Davinci directly and they basically have 3 avenues for providing information for the Lite version; Hands-on, Manual or Forum.
I presented the question in their forum as well (no response yet), but I was really hoping to get a bit more feedback here in the PE forum since my question pertains specifically to Premiere Elements.
My goal was to perhaps find someone in this forum that is actually implementing a Workflow with both programs.
I do not have any "hands-on" experience with Davinci, but it's my understanding that the Lite version is very powerful and color corrects better than PE.
That would be apparent too, since many Premiere Pro and Final Cut editors use the Lite version over tools in their respective programs.
Without hands on experience I can only quote the exports mentioned above which I reviewed in the Manual.
Google hasn't provided anything promising as it relates to these 2 programs specifically either

Premiere Elements 10 - Export to AVCHD files?

Since the demo isn't available yet; does anyone know if I can export AVCHD directly to .mts or .m2ts files? I might be interested in picking this up for $99 but I cannot demo it yet. Also, what bitrate can I export to?
For example, my .mts files are 1920x1080 24p @ 24 megabit. Would love to export in the same quality.
Lastly, does anyone know if Elements 10 does anything with the subtitles (my camera keeps the time/date stored within the .mts file as a subtitle).
Thanks,
Shawn

Yes, the program can create M2T files at 25 mbps, so you should see no loss of quality whatsoever if you've properly set up your project to match your AVCHD specs.
However, Premiere Elements does not read metadata like time/date, etc.
Are you sure the demo isn't available? It should be.

Aperture and AVCHD Lite support

Apple implies on their Aperture 3 features site that AVCHD and AVCHD Lite is supported. See http://www.apple.com/aperture/features/#video/ . Does anyone know if Aperture supports AVCHD Lite for video transfer from a Panasonic DMC-ZS7 to my MacBook Pro?

I bought the Panasonic DMC-ZS7 today.
I was able to use Aperture3 and import still images and motion imagery from my Panasonic DMC-ZS7 into my MBP. I was also able to do this with iPhoto and iMovie.
The camera does not support AVCHD or AVCHD Lite. However, the camera has a user selectable option in the menu to shoot Motion JEPG (.MOV) HD video.
Both the still images and motion imagery look great! I can view the motion images in Aperture3, QuickTIme, or iMovie.
GPS works well with the camera, Aperture3, and iPhoto as well.

AVCHD Lite Support in iMovie 09 - Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3

Hi,
When I import AVCHD Lite movies from the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3, they don't import correctly and have skips. Anyone know what's going on? Is the AVCHD Lite codec not supported by iMovie '09?

This may or may not help you, but I have read that the ZS3 records at 30fps but it outputs at 60fps through frame doubling. I am not sure exactly how it does this but I believe it is a flag.
I have also read that iMovie does not read the flags correctly to frame double the clip which is why your 39 second clip is outputting at double the speed and completing in 20 seconds.
I also read that it is possible to get iMovie to correct this, but I can not remember the precise steps. You may google for it. Basically it goes like this. You import the movie using iMovie and save it. Then close iMovie. Then you select the movie and (and this is the bit I do not remember) somehow modify a frame rate setting to correct it from 30fps to 60fps. Then open iMovie again and apparently it plays correctly.
Sorry I could not be more help, but god luck with google and hopefully I have given you a few pointers to follow up on.

AVCHD 1080p50 not showing up in Premiere Elements 11

I have Premiere Elements 11, which, according to what I have read, supports editing 1080p50 (or 60 in NTSC). When I create a project it is not showing up in the list of available presets. See the available list below:
Checking the installation directories, I can see that the preset is actually installed on the computer. Screenshot below:
Comparing the two lists, all of the presets are available, except the 1080p 50. The preset has GUID 088bb726-9823-467e-b3b7-26f3703d4cf1, which is included in the Adobe Editing Modes.xml as EditingMode24, enabled on all platforms. I was going to attach both the preset and the editing modes xml to this question, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do that. They are both reasonably large files, so I am posting below only the definition of EditingMode24. I can post the contents of the preset as well, if required. I am on Windows 7 64bit.

I have noticed that this editing mode does not have a frame rate of 50p, whereas some of the other EditingModes do. Is that what is causing the problem?

VDOSurfer
Please excuse if the following has been brought up here or in the other thread that you referenced. I have been exploring and experimenting with this issue of the "Premiere Elements 11 Windows missing AVCHD 1080p50" that some users have run into and thought that I would post my findings here just in case.
A user in France reported the problem, same syndrome, PAL AVCHD 1080p50.sqpreset in the program files, but not showing up as a choice in Premiere Elements 11 new project dialog. Program installed with French as language. I received a copy of the file to study. Except for it having more preset choices than I did, the Notepad document was identical to what I had in my Premiere Elements 11 Windows. Without resorting to your downloadable version, I was able to correct the problem by removing all the descriptions from the "bad" document, copying the same section with seemingly identical script from the "good" document, and then pasting the latter into the "bad" document. Correcting the occasional typing errors in the document, example 1 920 and 080, and removal of several descriptions/languages that I did not have in my copy had no impact on the issue.
Right now the project presets that you have posted appear to be the answer to this problem until Adobe gets around to addressing it. As for those who would like the displayed readouts associated with the preset to agreed with the preset properties, I have posted the following at the other forum that I frequent. The response was addressed to the user in France who was great in follow up.
Here is more information on what was your Premiere Elements 11 Windows missing PAL AVCHD 1080p50 project preset.
If you want VDOSurfer’s PAL AVCHD 1080p50.sqpreset file as the replacement for the file that came with your Premiere Elements 11 Windows
a. to be included and displayed in the Premiere Elements 11 Windows new project dialog listings of choice
and
b. to have the descriptions (new project dialog as well as the Edit Menu/Project Settings) agree with the PAL AVCHD 1080p50.sqpreset file,
then you need to edit further the Notepad document for VDOSurfer’s PAL AVCHD 1080p50.sqpreset file in the following two places in the Notepad document.
1. Where you see
<EditingModeGUID.Win>d10b5335-ce74-4031-bc7c-79e8b73582ee</EditingModeGUID.Win>
<EditingModeGUID.Mac>d10b5335-ce74-4031-bc7c-79e8b73582ee</EditingModeGUID.Mac>
CHANGE TO
<EditingModeGUID.Win>088bb726-9823-467e-b3b7-26f3703d4cf1</EditingModeGUID.Win>
<EditingModeGUID.Mac>088bb726-9823-467e-b3b7-26f3703d4cf1</EditingModeGUID.Mac>
2. Where you see
<VideoFieldType>1</VideoFieldType>
CHANGE TO
<VideoFieldType>0</VideoFieldType>
Also, if you have a PAL AVCHD 1080p50 file, add it to the project, and drag it to the Timeline, you will now find the project will automatically set the project preset and that project preset and description will be for PAL AVCHD 1080p50 settings.
Also be aware that VDOSurfer’s download descriptions in some cases maintain certain references to the word interlaced, presumably because he edited a Notepad document for an interlaced project preset to get his progressive 1080p50 offering. But, I have found that they do not make a difference in arriving at the above. This aspect of his document can be edited further, replacing “interlaced” with “progressive” in each of the languages offered. But I do not see the purpose in the latter at this point.
There remains many unanswered questions in pin pointing the core of the issue of the missing AVCHD 1080p50 project preset run into by some users. Particularly frustrating is trying to find differences between the Notepad document for the situation that will not work with that which will. Often the documents look identical except for perhaps a 1 920 x 080 instead of a 1920 x 1080. But those typo errors do not answer the "whys" as far as I am concerned since correcting them does not correct the problem at hand.
Until Adobe gets around to clarifying and/or correcting the situation, the work of VDOSurfer, contributions of thers, and the few suggestions that I have made for seeing more appropriate display of settings should keep things moving along. Focus export settings.

Adobe Premiere Elements/AVCHD?

Can anyone confirm if Adobe Premiere Elements 12 will import AVCHD at 50p? I have a Canon Legria HF R46 which I can't import into imovies from so wondered if Adobe Premiere Elements 12 would be the way to go? any help very much appreciated, thanks. Annie

Best to ask this in the Elements forum on the Adobe website.
Good luck,

Premiere Elements 10 doesn't support Intel Q6600

When I tried to install Premiere Elements 10, she said she did support my CPU type.
My Configuration:
CPU: Intel Q6600
Ram: 2Gb
Video Card: Nvidia GeForece 8600GT 512M
OS: Windows XP sp3

The Q6600 is an Intel® Core™2 Quad Processor Q6600 -- so the program definitely supports it and it has the necessary SSE instruction set. Something else is wrong.
Did you install Premiere Elements from a disc or from a download?
Have you gone to Windows Update and ensured you have all of the non-critical updates, which do not install automatically and often include important drivers and updates?
I also recommend you increase your RAM to at 4 gigabytes. 2 gigabytes is not nearly enough for video editing.

Format Not Supported By Premiere Elements

When I tried to import a song in Premiere Elements the m4p format was not supported by the software. Since I downloaded and paid for it once already can I change my settings to something it does support without paying for it again?

Most songs on the iTunes Store are in a protected format - meaning they cannot be used in other programs and cannot be converted. Unless, of course, you purchased an iTunes Plus song:

In that case, you can convert by following these instructions:

phewww .. actually reading the lists of features of new Premiere/elments 9 *for Mac* ... impressive!
… a tracking feature to 'attach' speech-bubbles etc to moving elements in scenery ..
… face-recognition for video
… auto-selection of clips 'fitting' for a project (however that should work)
… themes, 100s for DVDs (believe it or not: YES, disks!, even BluRay)
… web-dvds .. Adobe as webhoster? ..
lots of features are well-known for long-time iM-users ..
but a few things, Premiere offers, make my 'box of dirty iM tricks&workarounds' obsolete
.. looking forward to iMovie11!

@ChrisD: switchable 'sceneline' and timeline-view.. we had that with iMHD6, you remember ? ..
in the beginning, I was sceptical .. but that 'skimming'-UI of iM08/09 is no bad for a fast editing process. keep in mind: iM is for consumers, 'A Day At The Zoo' projects. poeple don't want to spend days for finishing a 5min-movie (as I do .. ) you load the raw footage, select the best, spice it up with music, sounds and titles - done.
for THAT purpose, iM is fantastic. for serios editing, FC/e is fantastic. it lacks some features, a pro-sumer-app HAS to offer (AVCHD-lite support.. but I found a workaround, .. A Theme-Maker-app? .. )
did I mention: APE allows native AVCHD-editing..
@Bengt: you're so close to Northpole - go, tell Santa your wishes ..
@GuyHolmes: iPods/Pads/Pips are software-extenders .. for MacOs. did you ever render 720p to h264 on an iPhone? breathtaking fast! we will see awesome 'effects' on our Desktop-machines.
the 'video apps'-team of Randy U. at  , who indeed spend some time for creating iMovie4iPhone, is now in charge for iM and FC ..
it will be interesting, how they 'split' features to both apps.. APE targets both markets, YouTube-clips and semi-professionals .. the mentioned tracker-feature is existing for years in Motion (=FC/pro, $$$$), 'sceneline-view' was in iM vers1 ..

Premiere Elements Disk Menus does not show in replay using Mac Pro OS X 10.9.3

I recently installed Premier Elements 12 on my Mac Pro OS X 10.9.3 (Maverick).
Naturally I want to get the highest possible quality to show off on the TV using a standard DVD player.
Outputting to DVD not using AVCHD retains the menu but not on AVCHD, what am I doing wrong?
The Output Quality using just DVD and not AVCHD is lousy, what have I missed?

SigiPC
Thanks for the reply.
Objective Miscellaneous
Let us start with your objectives. If you are restricted to a DVD disc, then your export choices from Premiere Elements will be
DVD-VIDEO widescreen on DVD disc (720 x 480 stretched to 856 x 480 for display after encoding)
or
AVCHD format on DVD disc (1920 x 1080 16:9)
Disc menus are possible as described for main menu page, scene menu page, main menu markers and scene markers. The players will recognize the stop markers placed in a Premiere Elements burn to DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, but will not recognize the stop markers in a Premiere Elements burn to AVCHD on DVD disc. There should not be problem with main menu markers or scene markers in either choice.
Also, AVCHD on DVD is not playable in the standard DVD player. You need a Blu-ray player that supports AVCHD on DVD disc. Many do, but some may not. The specifications of the player is your guideline.
For AVCHD on DVD disc, you do not need a Blu-ray DVD burner to burn to AVCHD on DVD disc. That can be done with a DVD burner.
And, under all conditions, a stop marker should never be placed at the end of the last item on the Timeline.
Specific Replies
What disk menu? I am talking about “disk menus” as per page 243 of Premiere Elements Manual.
It was my impression that you said that "Disc Menus Do Not Show...", so I was asking which specific disc menu theme are you using? And, is this "do not show" applicable to all the disc menu themes that you have tried to work with?
I am using a Panasonic Blu-Ray player on the TV.
Are the disc menus of your Premiere Elements DVD-VIDEO or AVCHD on DVD not displaying solely with this Panasonic player? Or, is the same observed with computer playback of the DVD product? If the missing menus in the end product issue that brought you here involves solely the Panasonic player, then I would ask if you have checked the player for any option that would control the display of menus in the playback?
Not sure if I am using “interlaced video” but you would know from my input sources mentioned above.
You wrote "My source media is output from iPhoto and Fotomagico slide shows whose output is MP4 MOV or M4V and if played back in Quicktime are of very acceptable quality (H.264 1920X1080)". That does not tell me if 1080p or 1080i, but I suspect that it is 1080p. The MediaInfo properties readout will give a definite answer.
http://download.cnet.com/MediaInfo/3000-2169_4-10413046.html
Just be careful for unwanted carry alongs with the MediaInfo free program. But iPhoto and Fotomagico should be telling you before export whether you are exporting 1080i or 1080p. My main focus on the Premiere Elements 1080p DSLR aspects related to slideshow is the fact that that Premiere Elements DSLR project presets seem to give consistently a sharper photo image in the end product. So when applicable (photo and video wise) it is the preferred route for me and others.
“Quality area” and space requirements are not of concerns at this stage since present show length is not even 30 minutes – or should I be concerned for some other reason but space?
As routine, the Quality area Space Required and Bitrate should be known, even for your 30 minute Timeline content duration. You should be working with a check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space" and watching the Bitrate in that area. Anything lower than the maximum 8.00 Mbps indicates that the program is making a fit by lowering the Bitrate. The extent that it does not impacts the quality of the end product. Also, of note, the that Bitrate is a variable one in the end product.
This may or may not affect what you are doing now, but it is important information to include in the discussion "just in case".
Also, related trivia...DVD disc marked 4.7 GB/120 minutes is in reality 4.38 GB; DVD disc marked 8.5 GB/240 minutes is in reality 7.95 GB.
Are we any closer to getting at why your disc menus are disappearing after end product creation in Premiere Elements and at playback with your Panasonic player?
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

Premiere Elements 9 on Mac - project size limitations?

About a year ago I purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 9 with a view to self editing of underwater video projects. At about the same time I purchased a Sony Handycam HDRCX 700V video recorder. This is HD video and seemed to be the way to go.
I quickly realised that the laptop computer I was planning to use just did not have enough grunt to deal with the high defination video.
So recently I went and purchased the highest specification desktop Mac machine I could lay my hands on. Apple iMac 27 inch i5 3.1GHz QC, 4GB RAM, 1TB hard drive fully expecting my problems to be over.
I have now started putting together a sizeable project of video footage taken on a Red Sea scuba diving trip. I have the clips all in the timeline, cut down and sequenced but want to start the actual editing process with respect to transitions, video clip effects, audio etc.
The new computer is now starting to fall down. While the computer itself remains standing the Adobe PE 9 software keeps crashing. When trying to add a second piece of video into a second timeline (I want to crop and have them play at the same time) the software crashes.
My question is what the practical limitation is for a size of a project? I am hoping to end off with something around 60 minutes but it would appear as if the software (together with the computer) is not capable of handling this. Any comments?
I have checked to see whether all the Mac software is up to date (yes it is) and all the PE9 software is up to date (yes it is).
Are the specifications good enough? What more can I do?
Any help will be most appreciated.
Kind regards

Your camcorder shoots in a variety of formats, and not all of these formats are supported by Premiere Elements.
So first you must ensure that you do not shoot in 60p! Loading 60p high-def video into Premiere Elements can cause all sorts of problems. Shoot video you plan to edit in Premiere Elements in 60i and 30i only.
Beyond that, you can shoot in 1920x1080 AVCHD or 1440x1080 AVCHD. Despite these numbers, these two formats are the same essential resolution! The latter just uses more traditional TV pixels.
But whatever you shoot, you MUST ensure that your Premiere Elements project is set up to handle that footage! So whatever you're shooting, when you start your Premiere Elements project, select the AVCHD or Full AVCHD setting that matches your video specs. Then attach your camcorder to your computer and use Premiere Elements Get Media/From Flip, AVCHD and Hard Disk Camcorder to import the video from the camcorder to your computer.
If your project specs match your source video, you should not see red lines above the clips on your timeline until you add effects to them. Is that the case in your project? When they match, you should have excellent performance.
Parts 1 and 2 of my free 8 part Basic Training tutorials on Premiere Elements support site Muvipix.com will show you how to set up a project and import AVCHD footage.

How do I correct the error; "PluginCoder error: no pligin DLLs" when attempting to burn a DVD with Premiere Elements 13

I just upgraded to PE 13 - removed PE12 prior to installing PE13 and now I cannot burn a DVD on my Win 7 Pro 64bit PC. In my first attempt at burning a DVD PE 13 did not see the DVD burner - drive "z:". I have a WD MyBook 4TB USB HD and had Security configured which created a Virtual CD on the drive. I disabled the virtual CD and rebooted. This time PE13 recognized the DVD burner but when trying to burn a DVD I received the No DLLs message and had to cancel the burn. I tried the burn again and the DVD burner was no longer recognized.
I then removed PE13 and reinstalled it - no errors during the install. Tried again and same result - no DLLs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time,
Mark

For Premiere Elements user, I would make note that the presets for burn to disc cannot be customized by the user within the program.
a. The second thread that you pointed rkclarke36 to does talk about resolving this issue by changing the burn to disc frame rate from
24 fps to 30 fps. But, that was for Premiere Pro, not Premiere Elements. In Premiere Pro, can the user really customize an Adobe burn to disc
preset?
For Premiere Elements
If the burn to is to DVD disc for DVD-VIDEO, the user is
confined to two frames rate, 25 interlaced frames per second or 29.97 interlaced frames per second. But, he/she cannot change the frame rate
within the preset.
If the burn to is to DVD disc for AVCHD DVD, the user again meets different presets, but cannot change the frame rate within the preset. For Premiere Elements 13 burn to AVCHD disc, the presets are
Premiere Elements 13
H.264 1440 x 1080i NTSC Dolby
H.264 1440 x 1080i PAL Dolby
H.264 1440 x 1080p NTSC Dolby
H.264 1920 x 1080i NTSC Dolby
H.264 1920 x 1080i PAL Dolby
H.264 1920 x 1080p NTSC Dolby
Except for the two 1080p presets with frame rate of 23.976 progressive frames per second, the other presets all have a frame rate of 29.97 interlaced frames per second NTSC or 25 interlaced frames per second.
b. Mark has not yet offered the details of the Timeline content (video and/or stills) being taken to burn to DVD-VIDEO or AVCHD DVD. So, frame size as per your first mentioned link might be an avenue to pursue. I would include that with all my testing of Premiere Elements 4 to 13, I have not gotten this particular dll error
with any oversized stills.
