Premiere Elements 4 - shake reduction

In Cyberlink Power Director Express there is a function to magically steady footage (handy when it was shot by my kids on their first outing with a video camera).
I didn't see anything in PE4 but a quick search on this forum brings up a plugin for Pr Pro called "SteadyMove" but then discussions that I can't follow easily about compatibility on various versions.
Given that I have Cyblerlink and am already exporting to DV-AVI from there I can apply its shake reduction before export. But if the plugin is free, and works with PE4, then it might be worth using there instead.
What shake-reduction options are there for PE4?

SteadyMove unfortunately is not free, there was an educational version that was free that you could download and it was also given away with Premiere Pro, infact I downloaded the educational version and used it with Premiere Elements for a while, but I think they removed the link.
PE7 has a stablizier included, similar to the one in Power Director I quess. Your best bet is to export from Power Director as a DV-AVI and then bring this into PE4 for further editing.
If you want a really good stablizier then I can recommend Mercalli... it is very good, unfortunately not free.

Camera Shake corrections in Premiere Elements 11

I have an interview that has several camera shakes in it. I have tried to add the video stabilizer to the clip, but that freezes all movement and continues with the audio. Everything I have researched says there should be a video warp, but I am not seeing this on PE11. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am new at this!! Thanks

mallorykpoe
The Warp Stabilizer is a feature of Premiere Pro, not Premiere Elements (any version).
Apparently you have found the Premiere Elements 11 Video Stabilizer/Stabilizer under fx Effects in your Premiere Elements 11. (By the way, on what computer operating system are you running Premiere Elements 11?)
I would give another look at the Premiere Elements 11 Stabilizer effect, going a lot less on the settings. Often here you gain more by less than by more.
The results also will depend on the nature of your footage. And, note that a file to which Stabilizer is applied has a markedly increase Timeline render time.
There are alternative products. If you are a Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit users, the Movie Maker will present with a Video Stabilizer that you might want to explore.
Please review and consider and then let us know the results obtained.
Thank you.

Premiere Elements 13 Losing Shake Stabliser rendering on start up

I am using Premiere Elements 13 and find that I lose Shake Stabiliser rendering on start up. All other rendering is fine (effects transitions etc.) I am using a PC with Win7 64bit i7 processor with 16gb Ram 509ssd disc and a 1Tb hard disc for video.
I have used Shake Stabiliser extensively in a 1 1/2 hour movie and now find that I am having to remove the shaky clips so that I don't have to rerender all the time on start up. This problem is making the Shake Stabiliser effect unusable. What can I do to fix this problem?
Thanks

Thanks for the follow up.
You seem to have confirmed an old problem.
I did the following quick test. I found a video sample online that was supposed to come from your camera - it is described
AVCHD.mts 1920 x 1080 p 23.976. Only one I could find. Took it into Windows 7 64 bit Premiere Elements 13/13.1 project along with a wmv file...video
stabilized the AVCHD.mts but not the wmv...Timeline rendered both...save closed the project...reopened it to find the unrendered look for
only the AVCHD.mts. The wmv file still had its rendered look.
If you decide you need to render the unrendered looking content that was last seen rendered, you might want to consider
selective rendering of the Timeline content.
To do that, in the Edit area, you set the gray tabs of the Work Area Bar to span just the content for the Timeline rendering. And, then Timeline render
using the Timeline Menu/Render Work Area or the Render button above the Timeline. I prefer to hit Enter on the computer main keyboard.
The screenshot is from 12, but the principles are the same for 13.
No one has advanced the programming reason for this Timeline rendered content/save close reopen/unrendered Timeline content look.
It is further complicated by result based on type of content involved - psd, jpg, format of video.
Please let me know if you have further questions on this. If you have, I will comment on them later in the morning.
Thanks.

Where is the camera shake reduction filter on Photoshop Elements?

I downloaded Photoshop Elements for the sole purpose of using this camera shake reduction filter all over the website, but now cannot find it in the list of available filters. Help!

Unfortunately, the Camera Shake Reduction filter is only available in photoshop cc and cc 2014, which is part of the creative cloud, not in any version of photoshop elements.

Is there anti jitter (shake) add-ons for premiere elements 10?

I notice youtube can correct my bicycle videos for jitter movement of my videos. Is there a way to correct in Premiere Elements 10.
-Dale

Hi Dale,
To add to Steve's point, I would like to tell you about Smart Fix. When you import your file, the Autoanalyzer analyzes your file, or you can manually start it by right click and Run Auto Analyzer, after analyzing it will suggest you if any fix is needed for your clip, like fixing brightness and contrast or in your case shakiness too. Try this out as well!
Happy Editing,
Aniks

Time stretch has stopped working in Premiere Elements 13.

I've downloaded the latest Adobe updates. I am using a Windows 8 64 bit computer. I have previously (in the last few weeks) used time stretch to speed up and slow down without any problems but now I can't get it to work in any of my projects. All video files shot with an iPod Touch or iPhone. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?

Chris
As a point of reference for your Premiere Elements 13 question, I have a iPod Touch 4th generation (H.264.mov 1280 x 720 @ 24 progressive frames per second), and I have no problems using Time Stretch or Time Remapping in a 13/13.1 project or other versions.
I would invoke the interference of a possible variable frame rate rather than a constant one involved with your particular type of video (from iPod or iPhone) and Time Stretch, but I am not having any problem with my iPod Touch video (with minimal variable frame rate) and Time Stretch in Premiere Elements. If you want to explore that idea further, you could convert your video's variable frame into a constant one using the free HandBrake program. Then import HandBrake's H.264.mp4 export into your Premiere Elements 13/13.1 project and determine if you can then apply Time Stretch to that clip.
Have you applied the Shake Stabilizer to your clip before trying to apply the Time Stretch? For that matter, what effects, if any, have you applied to your video clip before trying to apply Time Stretch to it?
All of the above is based on Time Stretch no working for you in a new project with new source media.

What's new in Premiere Elements 13?

Premiere Elements 13 is more of a refinement than a major overhaul of Adobe's consumer video editing program. Though there are a couple of cool new features worth noting:
• New Guided Edits. Version 13 adds more tasks to its library of Guided Edits – step-by-step walkthroughs of its tools and effects.
• The Shake Stabilizer. The Shake Stabilizer is a very nice update of the old Video Stabilizer effect.
• Favorite Moments. A brand-new feature in version 13 is Favorite Moments, a tool for selecting the best moments from a video clip and compiling them into a smooth, new video sequence.
• Video Story. Certainly the most exciting new feature in Premiere Elements 13, though, is Video Story, an advanced tool for assembling clips and building stories using templates and semi-automatic tools.
• Burn your disc to ISOs and Folders. In version 13, your DVDs and BluRays can be burned directly to a disc or they can be archived as ISO image files for later burning to disc.
• Organizer enhancements. The Elements Organizer has also been given a tune-up. The interface has been nicely decluttered, and there’s even tighter integration with Adobe’s Revel “cloud”.
But the most interesting addition is the new theme-based Slide Show Creator, a tool that, for the first time, is available on both the PC and Mac versions of the program.
• Elements Live (eLive). Elements Live is a link directly from the programs to an exclusive web site full of exciting ideas, tutorials and other content especially for Elements users.
For screen shots and more details on these new features, as well as tutorials demonstrating how these new features work, see the links on the left side of this page.
*** Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements 13 ***

Over_Nyquest,
Thanks for noticing!
Here are some of my personal favorites for some of the "what's new" in v13 - the entire new feature list and specific use cases on how to use these features will be rolled out over the next several weeks...
1. Circuit Parameters - For modeling, you can set 'global' style variables and have component and model values be expressions that are dependent on these values. There is a circuit parameters dialog for adjusting the values and they can be used in the SPICE analyses (such as parameter sweep).
2. More components - Maxim has been added as a supported manufacturer (+1300 parts) and many updates to our other supported manufacturers (+1500 new parts/updates from various mfrs). We've added several new power models for thermal analysis (also included are some new eGAN FETs from EPC - these are new, small, highly efficient FETs).
3. Updated the Component Wizard - makes it easier to do the symbol pin mapping for models.
4. The LabVIEW API is now part of the installer (so if you have LabVIEW, it will automatically install for use in automating your simulations).
5. PCB templates for reusing designs. Also new/better dialog for multisection parts in heirarchical designs (which helps to better ensure synchronized hierarchical schematics/layouts).
...various others... you can open the Examples folder for some good examples some of the newest features...and you can look at the documentation for some additional details (All Programs -> National Instruments -> Circuit Design Suite 13.0 -> Documentation -> Circuit Design Suite 13.0 Readme).

"Adobe Premiere Elements 13 has stopped working"

I got a copy of Premiere Elements 13 on "Black Friday" (one month ago). I am using stabilization and sometimes get "Adobe Premiere Elements 13 has stopped working". I have been guessing at the problem and run several experiments - one being; stabilize a clip in it's own project and create an MP4 to use in the final project. The latest clip seems to render fine, but crashes on playback (sometimes this happened on version 12 but not so consistently and often. I'm running 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium, with 6GB RAM, 3.30GHz, Intel Core i3 - 4 core processor. I use two monitors with the built-in video hardware. Rendering max's out all four cores while stabilization taxes the RAM. Where can I look to find out more details about this problem (only guessing with anything less)? Thanks for the help.

Ray
Thanks for the reply with further details and results.
The generalization is that you (manually) or the project (automatically) sets the project preset to match the properties of the source media.
But, if you have more than one format to import, you can still import that "atypical" format into the project (a project cannot have more than one project preset). But, the Shake Stabilizer will not stabilize it since it's properties do not match the description of the project preset. You can easily understand this by looking at the description of the project preset that has been set for the project and comparing it with specification of your video source. But, I have not yet found that such a situation creates a project/program "stopped working" as in shutting down the project/program.
I suspect a major factor when you run into a Shake Stabilized induced project/program shutdown is computer resource demands of the feature for the video which is requiring the stabilization. And, I have found that the stabilization times can be long.
Consequently, if the Shake Stabilizer does not cause the project/program to shutdown when asked to stabilize a video clip (without other effects). I am very guarded in the outcome, especially stabilization times, when the Shake Stabilizer is asked to stabilize a video clip to which other effects have already been applied.
We will looking forward to your results.
Thank you.

How do I edit the video audio in Adobe Premiere Elements 10

I want to edit the video audio, so that I can get rid of some of the sounds and background noises. Also, how do you import Plug-ins into Adobe Premiere Elements 10? I have trial versions of Adobe Audition CC and SmartSound. Thanks in advance for your help!

woody122
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running on? And, very important, what video card/graphics card does your computer use.
If a NVIDIA GeForce card, then that needs to be looked at first because of the serious and known Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue which is described in one of the announcements at the top of this forum.
SmartSound is an feature included with Premiere Elements 10. Why are you looking at any trial version of SmartSound?
As for Adobe Audition CC, I was not aware that this is a plug-in. As far as I know, Adobe Audition CC is an application that Premiere CC can integrate with as a CC application which Premiere Elements is not.
See the following video tutorial
Clean up Premiere Pro audio clips with Audition | Adobe Creative Cloud tutorials
Look at the price tag afterward, probably on subscription rates?
Please check out the Premiere Elements 10 audio effects, especially those related to noise reduction.
Have you looked at the free audio editor named Audacity and its noise reduction opportunities?
Please give more details in support of your Adobe Audition CC being a plug-in if you are confident that it is.
Thanks.

Adobe premiere elements 13 error

I have a problem with Adobe premiere elements 13, when in expert mode of the program and I import a MP4 clip from my Minecraft recordings (the recording mod I use is called camera studio mod) the problem is that it jitters, shakes vertically and I cant seem to fix it.
The file details are this
MP4
Length 00:00:18
Frame size - 1920x1018
Data rate - 1372kbps
total bitrate - 1372kbps
Frame rate - 11
I had the program around 2 to 3 weeks ago, did about 2 YouTube videos with it, and it worked fine. few days later after my second video, I try to work on another video (the cinematic intro) when I noticed it was shaking vertically so I deleted the clips I was going to use for the cinematic intro and I tried reimported them, which did not fix the problem.
After doing a few test with different Minecraft clips I use in my videos, I noticed problem only happens to the clips I'm using for my cinematic. Time-lapse clips work fine.
Next I interpreted the footage and changed its frame rate to 30, just like my time-lapse clips are ( my time-lapse clips are 1920x1018 running at 30 fps and worked fine). This slightly fixed the problem only it sped up the clip a lot which was not the solution I was looking for.
Lastly I tried to stabilize the clip but I came with this error "Stabilizer requires clip dimensions to match project setting. Create a new project." so I tried to do what it recommend me to do, create a new project, and that didn't work, I even tried it in different settings, and still every single one did not work.
Please help me, I like to get back to making YouTube videos, a fast good reply would be appreciated a lot. Thanks

Let us recap for a moment...
Did you ever get good results using Premiere Elements 13 and specifically the cinematic output from Minecraft?
You seem to have suggested that at the beginning of your thread. If that were the case, we are in a "worked before but
not now situation" rather than "it never worked before".
Assuming "worked before but not now situation"
a. Can you think of anything different in the before cinematic build (good) versus the after cinematic build (jitters)?
b. Have you attempted to uninstall/reinstall Premiere Elements 13 (with a free ccleaner run through between the uninstall
and reinstall to get rid of leftovers from incomplete installs reinstalls)?
c. Have you considered downloading and installing a tryout of a Premiere Elements version earlier than 13 to determine
if it is more supportive of the cinematic footage? In this regard, you could download and install the tryout of Premiere Elements 11 or 12
and test your cinematic footage in it.
for version 11

for version 12

In either case, you need to read and carry out the web site's "Note: Very Important Instructions" in order to avoid

Add On...Were any of the Minecraft Forums of assistance in this matter?

Is there a way to create and edit a video in portrait mode / 9:16 in Premiere Elements 12 or 13. Playback on an iPhone in portrait position.

I'm editing iPhone app video for posting as the first screen in the Apple app store. Required size for the video is 750:1334, 9:16. I there a way to setup the initial video in portrait mode? Many posts for how to rotate a specific clip, but I need the whole video in portrait position. How to accomplish this? I'm using Windows 7 and Premiere Elements 12 and now 13.

LaurieFrick
Thanks for giving this portrait Edit area monitor shape a look.
I have Windows 7 64 bit and Windows 8.1 64 bit and have done the work using Premiere Elements 12/12.1 on Windows 7 64 bit.
Here is a step by step
Find the DSLR [email protected] file
Local Disk C\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 12\Settings\SequencePresets\NTSC\DSLR\1080p\
And, in that 1080p Folder is the DSLR 1080p30@ 29.97.sqpreset file that you seek.
1. Copy the
DSLR 1080p30@ 29.9.sqpreset fileI
and paste it to the computer desktop in a newly created folder named 1920p.
2. Open the 1920p Folder and edit the ..sqpreset file in Notepad.
To do that right click the .sqpreset, and, from the pop up, select Open With and then Notepad.
3. In the Notepad document, you are going to edit in only 2 places for now, switching 1920 and 1080 to 1080 and 1920 at the top and bottom
sections of the Notepad document.
Then go specifically File Menu/Save of the Notepad document and hit Save.
4. At this point, you have the edited.sqpreset file in the 1920p Folder on the computer desktop.
(Change the name of the edited .sqpreset file so that it = DSLR [email protected])
Move the 1920p Folder from there to add it to the 1080p Folder, the location where you found the original .sqpreset file that you edited.
Close out of there.
5. Back in the Premiere Elements 12/12.1, manually set the project preset to the new project preset
6. When you import your 1080 x 1920 9:16 video file into the project and drag it into the Timeline, you should see
Note that there is no orange line over that Timeline content, indicating that you are seeing
the best possible preview of the image.
7. As I wrote before,
But, here is the hang up. If I render the Timeline content to get the best possible preview at the Edit level, the video in the Edit area monitor
squeezes in resulting in black borders to the left and right of the video image on screen.
But, otherwise I found I had no problems editing or exporting, just had to keep away from Timeline rendering for previewing after an edit. Need to find the missing ingredient for 100%.
I will be writing this up in my blog in a more organized fashion including how I got the project preset description in Change Settings to agree with the changes. Probably I will do that in the morning.

No Disk error in Premiere Elements 13

I am getting the following error: "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive\Device\Harddisk1\DR1." If i click continue about 5 times the box disappears & I can continue working. The same thing occurs at random when i am attempting to do different operations with the same result. I can work within the program, however the constant error message is annoying. I have searched these forums & tried the different methods of uninstalling & reinstalling, deleting the recommended files, & running a Ccleaner. I can't find any other recommendations on this problem. Please help!

Premiere Elements 13 on what computer operating system? For now, assuming Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
What is your computer drives arrangement? How many removable drives do you have, and what are their drive letters?
See Computer/Manage/Disc Management.
Reports of the problem that you are describing can be found for Premiere Elements many versions.
Back in 2012, the word was to use Cancel and wait for an answer from Adobe who was working on the problem.
In 2013, the cause and effect seem to target the SmartSound feature....SmartSound feature is gone in Premiere Elements 12 and 13.
Microsoft and some visitors to this forum suggest getting to the core of the problem through drive letter changes for some removable drives.
Did you install Premiere Elements 13 from installation disc or from installation files from online download? I favor the uninstall/ccleaner run through/reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) approach to getting rid of the issue. But, problems with the same symptoms can (often do) have different causes.
More later.

Please check out recent thread which sought to solve the disc error message that appears to be similar to what you are reporting
http://forums.adobe.com/message/6246049#6246049
There was no definitive answer. Still waiting for follow up to the latest line of questions in that thread.
Suggestions about this being a long time issue are a bit misleading. In versions of Premiere Elements earlier than 12, there was a SmartSound/Sonicfire Pro 5 feature which appeared to be linked to the disc error message. And, updating SmartSound/Sonicfire Pro 5 was claimed to be the cause and remedy for the disc error message.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1300410
However, SmartSound/Sonicfire Pro 5 is no longer a feature in Premiere Elements 12. Premiere Elements 12 does have a Music Score feature, similar in principle to SmartSound soundtracks, but the SmartSound feature is gone in version 12.
Please review that information in the link above and let us know if any of it works for you.
