Project Settings - Language - limited set in RH 7?

Hello, I bought RoboHelp 7 for the Unicode language support.
It is working fine in that regard - I am building JavaHelp systems
now for English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Turkish,
Russian, Chinese, and Japanese. However, I cannot set all of these
languages from the Project Settings dialog. I thought that the
Index sorting and Search sorting was dependent on the Language
Setting. Is that not true? I know that the JavaHelp search database
is built during RoboHelp's JavaHelp compile.
Product: Adobe RoboHelp 7 (update 7.0.1 not yet installed)
OS: Windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP2

The Project Setting dialog box only defines the language of
the open RH project in RH Explorer. It has nothing to do with the
index or full text search in the compiled help files.
What you may be looking for are the Help Compiler options.
Search for ".hpj" or "About compiler option" in the RH online Help
Search tab. Also, look under "OPTIONS section". Here it says:
"LANGUAGE Specifies a different sorting order for Help files
authored in a Scandinavian language."
To my understanding, however, the "LANGUAGE" is obsolete and
has been replaced by the LCID option. The LCID option defines the
sorting order of index and full text search lists in WinHelp output
files, not only for Scandinavian languages but for all supported
languages, i.e. also Asian languages. The respective code page or
language name has to be entered here. You can run the HCW.exe
compiler to edit the sections in .hpj file but you can also edit it
using a simple text editer such as Notepad.
I do not know if all this applies to the FTS in Java Help,
which I think has its own full text search engine (Sun Java 2 SDK),
but it may be of help for the index sorting.

Placing background movie/project settings

I am lerning Livetype via a lynda.com tutorial. It says that if I'm using DV that my project settings should be set to DV NTSC 3:2, however my footage is shot in 16:9. What setting should I use. Do these settings only affect the placement of my type or do they affect the quality as well?
When I place a background movie that I exported from FCP and I use the DV NTSC 3:2 setting the picture is squeezed as I would expect, however, when I swith the settings to 1080I 16:9 the movie just occupies the upper left corner of my canvas. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!!!!!!

Hopefully I am not leading you astray here. Try using the NTSC 3:2 (or is it 4:3?), and then change the height and width settings to match that of the widescreen (16:9). Kind of bizarre that it doesn't have a common preset.
From the FCE4 manual (http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=answerlink&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmanuals.info. apple.com%2Fen%2FFinalCut_Express_4_UserManual.pdf&answerid=16777224), you can find frame size for NTSC on page 1065. This information might also be in your FCP manual.

How do you change project settings on Premiere Elements 12?

I have Premiere Elements 12. When I view a DVD I created of wedding photos, the edges of people and objects are jagged and generally the photos appear blurry. On my old Premiere Elements 8, I did not have this problem - the pictures on DVDs were clear and sharp. When checking the project setting on Premiere 8, the project settings for Capture was DV which changed all my settings for General and Rendering project settings. On my new Premiere 12, the Capture setting is HDV and I cannot get the General and Rendering settings to change when I change the Capture setting to DV. The online help from Adobe says to correct this, "In the New Project dialog box, click Change Settings," but when I start a new project in Premiere 12, "Adobe Premiere Element Editor" is the only dialogue box that shows and I cannot see a change setting button. Does anyone know how I can change my project settings so that when I select DV it will change all the presets for the General and Video Rendering settings?

jacquelinebaker
The party line is that you cannot change project settings once the project settings have been set. You need to start a new project.
Edit Menu/Project Settings/General does not offer the opportunity for any significant project settings change in this type of situation.
I have discovered that, under certain circumstances, that the user can change the established project preset without starting a new project.
The approach to doing this involves editing the Notepad document of the saved closed project file (project.prel file). I have written about this in the following blog post.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/05/pe11-changing-project-settings-without.html
You need to weigh the pros and cons of going through the procedure or just starting a new project and start the project again.
All of the above being said, on to setting to the correct project preset to match the properties of your source media. Please refer to the issues involved and how to set manually the project preset when the program is not doing the job correctly or best automatically.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/04/pe11-accuracy-of-automatic-project.html
To the specifics...if you are doing DV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 12 Capture Window, the scenario would be...
a. Open Premiere Elements 12 to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings. In Change Settings,
change the project preset to NTSC DV Standard or NTSC DV Widescreen depending on NTSC or PAL set up and 4:3 or 16:9 DV data source. Then before you exit that area, make sure to place a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project" in
the new project dialog. Exit that area and return to the Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace for your Add Media/DV Capture selection.
If you are doing HDV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 12 Capture Window, then same scenario except the project preset change involves NTSC HDV HDV 1080i30 (if NTSC). In this instance, the Edit Menu/Project Settings/General should look like
Please review and consider and then let me know if I have targeted you question or need clarification.
Thank you.

Can you change and set your own defult midi sync project settings

Hi All,
Can you change the default Midi Sync Project Setting so they have your own settings everytime you start up logic Pro X?
Preferences > Midi > Sync >MIDI sync project settings
General Default:
Frame Rate 25 fps
Check auto detect format of MTC
Default required:
Set frame rate to 29.97fps
check 'auto detect format of MTC'
check Enable Separate SMPTE View Offset
MDI Default is:
MTC and MMC all unchecked
Default required:
Check 'Transmit MTC'
Check 'Transmit MMC'
Check 'Listen to MMC Input'
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Regards,
           Gavin.

No, that's not what I typed above.
The rule is... Preferences are Global, changes made in Preferences affect all Projects.
"Settings" are on a per song basis.
In Logic 9 (and I imagine in X as well) there are two main areas to configure Logic.
1. Is Preferences    Preferences settings are global and affect all projects.
2. Is Settings          Settings are set for each project, they are not global
You typed: Preferences > Midi > Sync >MIDI sync project settings
See what is says, MIDI Sync Project Settings.
Preferences has forwarded you into the Settings area so no, the MIDI Sync options are not global, they have to be adjusted for each song, that's why I suggested setting up templates of your most used project setups.

Batch capture settings do not match project settings

Batch capture audio settings do not conform to project settings-
PROJECT SETTINGS ON CREATION OF NEW PROJECT:

When I set for batch capture by creating off-line clips using the "Log Clip" option the off-line clip shows audio as
32KHZ 16-bit everyting else is correct as project settings.
Just prior to creating the off-line batch capture clip I had sucessfully captured from the same device using the same tape shot with the above settings including 48khz 16-bit audio by using standard " Capture" by setting in & out then clicking Capture>In/Out.
I've looked at capture settings etc...unable to determine to change audio settings etc or why the audio settings under batch capture do not conform to project settings...
Any ideas?
Tnx,
mick

Thanks for your reply, Harm....
Well now...having negated all the possibilities you listed, I decided to do a an actual batch capture with clips which I previously logged which reported audio at 32kHz instead of the project setting of 48kHz:
1. two clips were selected from the same device/tape ( both selected from the logging util which erroneously reported audio at 32kHz) for the batch
2. both clips captured "flawlessly"
3. both clips after the batch capture then reported audio as being 48kHz
Btw, I also did a batch capture from the same device/tape in Pr 6.x...and it reported and captured at 48khz...I must say, I must prefer the legacy version of Pr 6 for batch capture which creates a log .pbl file which can then be easily exported as a csv to and .xls etc..IMO, much more useful...and useable..
Mi dos pesos(.002US)
So it would appear there is some kind of bug in the Pr cs4 batch capture util that is erroneously reporting audio settings?
Should this go to the devel as a possible bug?
Tnx,
mick

My Site Settings: Language Options not applied

On a SharePoint 2013 Server I want that the user be able to select is own My Site Language (as SP2010).
So, goingo to: Services Applications > User Profile Service > Setup My Sites:
And checking in the The Language Options checkbox (Allow user to choose the language of their personal site)
The above option doesn't result in any language selection prompt for the user on the My Site creation.
Ideas?

Hi falloutpt,
Based on the following article, user's My Site will be created with default, primary language of the SharePoint Server 2013 installation on the server by default, then user can change his my site to display other language installed, it should be different
from the SharePoint 2010.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262500.aspx#mui
"When enabled, users can use the multilingual user interface feature
for their My Sites. This feature is used to display the site's user interface in a secondary language that the user prefers instead of the default, primary language that was selected when the site was created.
By default, when a new site is created, it is created in the default, primary language of the SharePoint Server 2013 installation on the server. A farm administrator must install language packs on the server before sites can be created in languages
other than the default, primary language.
For My Sites, the multilingual user interface feature is controlled by the Language Options setting when you configure My Site settings. The languages that are available to users correspond to the language packs installed in the server
farm. For more information about language packs, see Install or uninstall language packs for SharePoint 2013."
Change and display language should also have changed in SharePoint 2013, user could display the My Site as other languages from IE language settings, which have being installed on SharePoint server.

Project Settings vs. Encoding and Encore Resolution for BR

I am editing HDV footage from a Canon HV20. When I setup my project in Pr Pro I used the recommended
default HDV project settings. Hopefully these are correct. I will be burning a Blu-Ray disc for the project.
I assume like other products I have used, the best answer here is the native resolution of your source which hopefully is what I am getting.
Now when I render it via media encoder, it asks me for the "frame size"/resolution for the Blu-Ray disc output.
Also when opening a new project in Encore, it asks for similar information. I am in NTSC land.
I am familiar with the HD standard and resolutions, and the end result of this project is a Blu-Ray disc played on HDTV's.
However what is the best media encoder resolutoin and encore "frame size" settings for a Blu-Ray disc with an HDV source?
I saw several articles and videos from Adobe about these settings and they explain what they are, but not what the recommended selections are.
As a sidenote, once you are working on a project in PP can you change the settings/resolution of the project?
Thanks,
BJBBJB1
PS...Did not know which forum to post this in as it straddles all 3 products!!

First, thanks to both of you for your help! Hmmm, I am sure the confusion is on my end....
Both of you recommend H.264 vs. MPEG 2 for encoding. If I am rendering a 1 hour 20 minute Blu-ray, for burning Blu-Rays that I need to paly on a white variety of standalone players, what is the better choice and whay? I was planning on burning to single layer Blu-Ray at best quality. I am also using 5.1 audio.
For the encoder, I was going to use "HDTV 1080i 29.97 High Quality" as my rendering preset with MPEG2.
However now I am wondering if I should be using H.264? Harm, you mention it and you also mention "square pixels". I am familiar with this concept due to my photography work and slide shows vs. video, but where is this "square pixel" setting in the media encoder??
Anna, I appreciate your comment regarding keeping it simple, however, although I am far from a PPro expert, I definitely am into Home Video and understand quality and resolutions, etc., so I want to get the best quality even if I have to do a little work.. So I'll get there. I see that clicking on that menu item allows you to choose maximum render quality. I have plenty of RAM but since I am not going SD to HD or SD to HD, perhaps it won't matter much. However I am confused by the resolution you are showing there, 1440x1080?
As far as my initial question regarding how to setup my encore project, I may have answered it myself by playing around with the media encoder box. I opened up the drop down advanced section and I see it presents the frame dimensions there. I would assume I would use the exact same frame dimensions in Encore when setting up my project.
So I guess at this point my only decisions are:
1) What codec should I use when exporting from PPro? h.264 or MPEG-2. If it matters, I am using 5.1 audio also. (thanks for all your help with that Harm months ago, it works great!).
2) What resolution to use in media encoder?
3) How do I set square pixels?
4) Once exported, in Encore, is my assumption correct that I will just use the same resolution as exported from P Pro.
Perhaps that is what Anna was recommending, keep the same resolution and then let Encore render to 1920X1080 however I would want to get all my rendering out of the way during the export process and just keep it all the same in Encore if that is a good workflow.
Thanks again for all the help!

I film with an iPhone and edit in PE10, what project settings would be best?

     So I'm filming a short film with my iPhone 4S, and editing in PE10. The recommended project setting for the iPhone 4S's footage is 'Flip Mino HD and Ultra HD 29_97'. However, I film using an App called FilmicPro, which allows me to customize frames per second, resolution and audio capture with some settings. In my case, I've set the app to film at 30fps and with a resolution of 1920x1080. I still use the above mentioned project setting. So my first question is:
-If I'm filming in 1080x190 at 30fps, is there a different setting I should be using for the project?
     Now for the second part. The first part of my editing process is I start a project, select 'Flip Mino HD and Ultra HD 29_97', then I splice and string together the raw footage from FilmicPro like normal. Next I export the project with the settings:
Quicktime (For email and playback on Mac)
Output: 1920x1080, 29_97fps, Progressive, Quality 100 48000hz, Mono, H.264
Source: Clip, Sequence 01,
               1280x720 (1.0), 29_97 fps, Progressive, *insert duration*, 48000 Hz, Stereo
Audio Codec: AAC
Sample Rate: 48000 Hz Mono
Video Codec: H.264
Field Type: Progressive
Aspect: Square Pixels (1.0)
Render at Max. Depth: 24 bit
     After I export the project, I start another project (not changing the project settings from before), and then I import the finished project as media so I can add special FX (in this case muzzle flashes, blood, etc.). However when I add the video, PE10 states the project settings dont match, and asks if I'd like the program to choose the correct settings. I select yes. This changes the project settings to 'DSLR-1080p-DSLR 1080p30'. I edit without issues, and use the same export settings as I did for the base draft. I also notice when I view the project settings in the second project after it changes settings, that it says the editing mode is now 'Sony XDCAM EX 720p'. So my second question is:
-Should I use the setting that PE10 switches to? Or select 'No' and still use the Flip Mino setting i used for the first draft?
     The end video still looks great (for an iphone), although of course there is still noise. I'm basically trying to get the absolute best quality possible. If this is as good as it gets, and It turns out ive been doing this right, then that's fine. But if anyone can recomend better settings to use, then please tell. Thanks.
Forgot to mention, I'm using an unmodified MacBook Pro (2006) with Adobe Premiere Elements 10. Dont know if that info is needed, but thought I'd include it.

Maybe I missed something. So extra post on this.

Why? Where did the 720p30 come from?
If you have 720p30 footage, you should be using
NTSC
AVCHD
AVCHD LITE 720p30
If that is what you have, do you really want to export that as 1920 x 1080 or 1280 x 720?
If an export of 1280 x 720, please look at
Share

Project settings menu does not appear

Running OS 10.9.5 and iMovie 10.0.5 on a macbook pro.
I'm trying to set the aspect ratio of my project. I have seen several docs and threads that say I should click File->Project Settings and the project settings menu will come up. However, I can't find that. The file menu does not contain Project Settings or anything like that. Neither do the other pull down menus.
I have also seen threads describing how when I create a new project (trailer or movie) and there is supposed to be point at which I can select the aspect ratio. Nope, don't see that either. For example, when I click the big "+" that is used to create a project, I get to choose between a trailer and a movie, then I get to choose a theme, then it asks for a name and I click OK and that's it.
I have also used Command-J, which is supposed to bring up the properties menu. That does give me the movie properties, but there is no place to choose an aspect ratio. I get the same results, or lack thereof, when I do Window->Move Properties (not surprising since command-J is the short cut key for this).
Question -- is this supposed to work with 10.0.5? I have tried to find a later version of iMovie but the only one I found on the apple store site was 10.0.6.
Any ideas?????

I have finally found where it is stated that iMovie 10 does not support project properties or changing the aspect ratio.
I love Apple and would never consider switching to a PD, but really, folks, this is just a plain dumb decision on Apple's part and IMHO reflects the continuing siphoning of quality resources from OS-X/laptops/desktops to iPhone and other gadgets. yuck.
consider this discussion closed (I don't know how to close it) and I will fire up my old iMini that has OS 10.6 on it and see if I can get the job done there.
yuck.

2 project settings questions

Hello again
Still experimenting with PrE8 trial version. This is my first experience with a video editor so learning all from scratch. I have a couple of questions regarding the project setting you need to chose when you create a new project. I understand these settings define the "working" enviroment for the editing process - in other words the resolution and all the other characteristics (format, frame rate, etc) that the project will use
1) I have a camera that´s 1920x1080 30p (progressive) , the GoPro HD. When I look in the new project presets, all 1920 x 1080 presets available seem to be specifically designed for interlaced video. This is indicated by the names of the presets, and by their descriptions as well. There is only 1 progressive preset, of a lower resolution (720p)
Nevertheless, I tried using the HD 1080i preset, loaded some 1920x1080 progressive mp4 files, and apparently it works perfectly well. In fact when I go to edit>project settings>general window, the project attributes indicate progressive video !!!
Is there really any difference (or specific requirement) in a project preset for interlaced vs progressive video? ( I am beginning to suspect that there is really no difference, and that the coding ( i vs p) does not really form part of the project settings, and that the project will take both forms of input media)
any thoughts on this?
2) The GoPro has a non-standard resolution mode, HD with 4:3 aspect ratio : 1280x960 30p
There is no project setting preset that will match this, how can I create one myself ?
The PrE help says this is possible, but I can't find how. ( Edit>project settings will not let me change the resolution)
from the help
If your source footage requires a custom project preset, you can create one. The procedure for creating a preset differs if you’re changing settings for an open project versus establishing settings for a new project. Presets you create can be applied to new projects, and if you want to back up or distribute preset files, you can find them in the Settings subfolder of the Adobe Premiere Elements folder on your hard disk.

Again thanks so much for your time and your help , much appreciated.

Unfortunately you will not be able to use the video from those "sports" camcorders directly in Premiere Elements. It's just not compatible with the program.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317?tstart=0
As you can see from this FAQ, there are three options for converting the video:
1) Convert it a DV-AVI using MPEG Streamclip. It's a free program, but the DV-AVI it outputs will not be hi-def. It will be standard video, but it will be editable in Premiere Elements.
2) Convert it to a standard def DV-AVI using Quicktime Pro, a $29 download from Apple.com,and edit in Premiere Elements.
3) Use Quicktime Pro to do your editing. The video will remain a high-def MP4.
The best solution, of course, is if the camcorder itself comes with its own editing software. That's software you KNOW will work with the camcorder's footage.
But, short of that, you'll need to use one of the hybrid solutions above. But you will not be able to edit the footage directly in Premiere Elements. Sorry.

What Project Settings to Use?

Hi,
I am very new to this program and would like to put together a movie using video clips taken from my iPhone. When complete, it will need to be saved as an FLV for web viewing. What settings should I use when I create a new project in PrE12? Also, I want to insert slides in between clips. If I create them in PhotoShop or Illustrator, what dimensions should they be if I want them to be the same dimensions as the video clips? Thanks for any help!

HapJax
Premiere Elements 12, like version 11, takes over setting the project preset (project settings) based on the properties of first drag to the Expert workspace Timeline. If that project preset set by the program matches the properties of your source file, then you should have no colored line over the the Timeline content (as the first drag to that Timeline).
Sometimes the program does that OK, sometimes not. If not, then you set the project preset manually yourself based on the file properties that you know before importing media into the project. When the program does not do it right, it does not give you the closest to what it should be but rather its default NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 or its PAL counterpart.
Now here is the bottom line here...if you let the program set the project preset for you and you get an orange line over its content, you do not render the Timeline to get the best possible preview. You set the project preset manually according to the properties of the source media and then move on as indicated above.
Once you start editing your video (working in a project set with the correct project setting), you will get an orange line over the edited content - program telling you that you need to render the content to get the best possible preview. The time for "rendering" for preview purposes according to the color indicator system is after edits, not after the first drag to the timeline.
That is my take on the situation.
If clarification on anything that I have written, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thanks.

What project settings and export settings to use ?

So, after some trial and error i give up and need some huge help. (7.0 Pro)
I have recorded some footage through a game running at 1920:1200 resolution. So the question is what project settings should i choose under project, look at the picture below for example. Some times i get a large black area around the finished video, while one time it came out as a 4:3 vid....
http://bildr.no/view/468733
Further more, when i am done editing i want to export it uncompressed to the disk in the same format 1920:1200 (which is 16:10). Which settings should i then choose?
http://bildr.no/view/468734
Thx for any help you might be able to provide. Btw! Basically, what i want is just plain editing, no cropping of edges, resizing etc, i just want to take the raw video, edit it, and make a new file out of it with the same properties as the raw vid (source).

Your pixel aspect ratio and field order are wrong. You want PAR set to "square pixels" and field order set to "Progressive (None)". Do the same for your export settings.

Frame size discrepancies in project settings?

Hi Guys
I have some new information and some observations on my problems with getting full screen output.
I looked through all the project settings and I noticed that the ones I was trying to use…
HD 1080i (60i) and HDV 1080i 30 say that the output is at a16 to 9 ratio and have a frame size of 1440 by 1080i.
This is the frame size or ratio, I kept trying to import.
I finally realized that this isn't a frame size that is proportional to the image ratio that it lists.
16 by 9 would really be proportional to 1440 by 810.
The 1440 by 1080 video that I import using either of these,does not export full screen even if it’s exported the same size it comes in, i.e.1440 in and 1440 out.
So I looked through the project setting for a selection where the stated ratio and the frame size matched.
I found HDV 720p 30.
16 by 9 at a 1280 by 720 frame size.
This would be an easy size for my to work in.
So I made a video at that size then loaded it into PE8 and it exported fine.
Full screen no border. In fact it comes out full screen no matter what size I export it.
When I exported the same video at 1600 by 900 it exported full screen and looked fine.
Then I went back and loaded the same 1280 by 720 video inthe HDV 1080i 30 settings.
It also came out full screen with no border.
So the problem is that as far as I can see the selection screen is wrong about the frame size for both the HD 1080i and the HDV 1080isettings.
You really have to load in something at 1600 by 900 or proportional to that.
And as far a I can find there is no setting that supports any thing other the wide screen except for the Standard 48kHz settings.
It looks like unless you want to go to a wide screen format 720 by 480 is the only option.
Now I’ll have to decide whether I want to do future projects wide screen or live with the restrictions on frame size.
I hate to change horses in the middle of the stream so I may just stick with the smaller size for the Lucy videos but other projects I will do wide screen.
Thanks again for all the help.

Subject: Re: Frame size discrepancies in project settings?
Hi Guys
Ok, I think I get it at last.
So when I create a 1440 by 1080 file, to use in the 1080i format, it should change the PAR from 1 to 1.333 when I create it, but since I can't control that I get an image that is too small, even though the pixel size is the same. The aspect ration should still end up 16 by 9.
So since Poser creates everything with a PAR of 1, my only option if I want a wide screen video is to actually pick a 16 by 9 ratio when I output it and ignore the listed frame size.
I still don't quite get why the image is both shorter and narrower, it seems like it should only be narrower but I'll live with it.
And there is no way to make PE8 output a full height image in the wide screen format that 3 by 4 except to drag it larger in the preview window.
And there is no advantage in doing that since I'm still using a 16 by 9 window and getting the file size that goes with it.
So if I want to work in a 3 by 4 format then the Standard 48kHz format it the only option.
Well at least I know what to do next time.
That should save a lot of time.
I may just give up and go to 16 by 9 and quit fighting it.
Thanks again.

Premiere Elements 12, Project settings to burn a DVD

Hi,
I'm a little confused about the project settings. I try to burn a DVD of 3 mpg-files. Here is a screenshot of the file info's, also one of the project settings:
According to the file information, I think the settings are correct, though the timeline shows an orange bar.
All files have the same informations.
When I go to finish the project to burn it on a DVD (output setting is PAL_Dolby DVD) it takes at least 14 hours, I don't think this is normal.
My system is a Macbook Pro, OS 10.9.1, 2.5 GHz, 16 GB RAM.
Any ideas what is wrong here?
Thank you in advance.

Great news with your troubleshooting. Great job.
Let us now look at what you wrote
The only thing that's left now is why I'm not able to save a project when I added one of my self created menue template
from the point of view of
a. how you created the menu template
and
b. where you placed it
Creation of the menus...
a. What did you put in the theme folder...just the main menu .psd file and scene menu.psd file or more? What were the exact names that you gave the main menu .psd file and scene menu .psd file? What program did you use to create your menus? We will get to the Layer Set structure in the Layers Palette of the .psd file(s) next if necessary.
b. I do not have a Mac computer so I cannot talk in terms of .psd file location in Mac. I will now talk in terms of Windows and hope that you can translate the following into the right Mac location for the theme files (assumed also .psd type).
Local Disk C
Program Files
Adobe
Adobe Premiere Elements 12
DVD Templates
Common
and, in the Common Folder, create a new folder named My Specials. In the My Specials Folder create a new folder named My XXX Theme. Inside the XXX Theme Folder goes the XXX .psd files and other theme assets.
In Windows, the menu theme (Slideshow/Pan and Zoom) that comes with the program is found in the above location. The menus that require Content download are in the Windows Program Data path that leads to the Online Folder. I do not want you to use that latter path counterpart in your Mac.
But let me ask this basic questions...
a. After you have placed the menu that you created in the computer, when you open Premiere Elements 12, do you see that menu in Movie Menu Display of menu choices
b. If so, can you click on its choice, hit Continue, and have the theme appear in the Movie Menu customization area of the opened project
c. If so, can you Preview the customized or uncustomized menu there and does it look good.
d. When all is done, how many main menu pages and how many scene selection pages do you have?
Let us start here, review the above, and then decide what next.
Thank you.

Add On...Additional focus may be computer resources, placement of Timeline markers, and spacing between Timeline markers, as well as fine details of Layer Sets in the Layers Palette of the .psd file, whatever else you may be placing in the Theme Folder of the menu that you made yourself.
