Slowing down a 60p video to 24p in Premiere Elements

Hello Fellow Forum Members,
I am
evaluating Premiere Elements and I have quick question.
Is it possible to slow down a 60p HD video to 24p or 30p in Adobe Premiere Elements?
Thank You,
Miki

Thanks for the follow up. We will be watching for your progress.
If you have not seen it before, the following is an Adobe TV video tutorial on using the Premiere Elements 11 Time Remapping feature.
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-premiere-elements-11/time-remapping-with-adobe-premiere-el ements-11/
Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions on your Premiere Elements workflow. Your evaluation of the program before purchase sounds like a good idea. Keep in mind that a new version of the program is expected to be released soon. After it is released, Adobe discontinues offering the version 11 tryout and offers only the tryout for the new version/current version.

Can a video created with Adobe Premiere Elements 13 be converted to run on Adobe Premiere Elements 11?

Can a video created with Adobe Premiere Elements 13 be converted to run (and be edited, etc.) on Adobe Premiere Elements 11?
I have several hours invested in a video creation that I made with Premiere Elements 13, but now 13 is refusing to work properly (space bar and play button do not move the time line indicator forward). Hopefully, I will get the problem solved, but in the meantime I must get this project completed and don't have time to start over. So, I need to convert the work so that it can be completed with Premiere 11 which seems to work fine.
Thanks, Dave

Dave
Is this an outdated thread? I thought that you had resolved the play button/space bar issue.
Classically, you cannot open a project created in a later version in an earlier version. If you try, you get hit with "The project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened." messaged. There was one rare and little known occasion when that was not the case. It involved Premiere Elements 10. So, that is not going to help us any here.
If you still have the play button/space bar issue, can you get out of the 13 project by exporting it to file which you can import into a new Premiere Elements 11 project? If need be, I can suggest the details of that if you tell me the project setting for the 13 project.
Please let us know the situation at this time.
Thank you.

I need HELP with exporting videos with PIP from Premiere Elements 11 to YouTube please?

When I am editing and rendering videos that have picture-in-picture using Premiere Elements 11, the videos (once they've been uploaded to YouTube) have these thick black margins above and below the picture-in-picture images/videos. These margins are not visible when the videos are viewed using Premiere Elements but then they appear when the video is on YouTube. How can I prevent this? Is this a format issue? Thanks.

Welcome to the forum.
Can you tell us exactly how you created your PiP, please?
Knowing the specs. of both your background Video (and your Project Settings), plus the specs. of the Video used in the PiP, will likely be useful.
Also, seeing a screen-cap of your Timeline, at the point of the PiP, might be useful too.
Good luck,
Hunt

How do I sharpen video from DSLR in Premiere Elements 11?

I've been using PE11 for some time now. Mostly for home videos and a youtube channel. Up until this point I have used a Canon Vixia HF M-50 which was great. I had to do very little adjusting the picture in post for what I needed. But I just recieved a Canon 7D with a couple good lenses and I will be selling the Vixia. I know the 7D has the capability to take much better video and I am getting better at the manual settings. Most tutorials out there say to have your settings with the sharpness and contrast turned all the way down and adjust in post. The sharpen "effect" doesn't really do much and my footage from the vixia looks much sharper. Any help out there for a newb? Or am I going to have to upgrade my computer and software to keep up with the new equipment?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for getting back
I used a Samsung SMX-F40BP/XEU "Handycam" recording from the the image projected on to a screen. This produced mp4 video files on an SD Card, H.264/AVC Format with AAC Audio
I then dragged and dropped the raw video files on to the PC hard drive, and added the folder to the Adobe Organizer.
When creating the projects I
1) Create a a New Project PAL Standard DV 48KHz to match the 4:3 aspect ratio of the original film
2) Drag the video/clip I intend to work with from the organizer window in to the work are of Adobe Premiere Elements 11.
When I was originally doing this yesterday for the first 15 clips, when added to the timeline, the video clips appeared as 1 contiguous clip as in the first image i posted.
When i went to work today I noticed that when i dragged a clip from the organiser to the work area, the video took longer to appear on the timeline, I could see the progress as it was added, with lines appearing where scenes/splits are being automatically added as in the second image I posted.
I noticed first thing that the clips were appearing in the organiser window with different icons, and in some cases I could expand the clips to see all scenes that had apparently been generated automatically. All clips in the orgnaiser now appear with the same icon, and are all expandable.
If i now create a new project and use one of the original clips that originally appeared as 1 contiguous clip on the timeline, it is now split automatically, as with the later clips.

Video Rendering Question using Premiere Elements 11 and/or Adobe Premiere

The video Rendering /encoding process can take hours even on an I5 processor.
It seems like this has to be done, redone and done again during the editing process.
If I purchase a camera which supports AVCHD 2.0 - does that mean that the encoding process altogether goes away, so that content is able to be transfered natively to the end media and so that I reduce my burn time to a BluRay Disc, using for example, Adobe Premiere Elements 11 or Full Fledged Adobe Premiere, or Sony's Vegas ?
Newbie to Video Editing.

AVCHD 2.0 only means that the camera can also record 1080p/60, which was previously not part of the AVCHD specification and still is not part of the Blu-ray spec. It's most useful for smooth slow motion effects.
Anything you add to Premiere Pro will need to be transcoded for Blu-ray, no way around that.

How do I stop jerky video in timeline of premiere elements 12?

I have just purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 12 (this software is new to me but I have watched a couple of videos). My video clip is slow and jerky in the time line and yes, there is a yellow line through it and no, rendering does not help. The clip plays fine from the window. I do not want to return the software but it is no use to me the way it is. I have Windows 8 Pro, Intel pertium Dual CPO E2180 @ 2.00GHz with 3.00GB RAM, 32-bit OS, x64-based processor. I really need help.

GmaShack
I am not in a position to comment on the 64 bit processor in the 32 bit operating system. It probably is an advantage than a disadvantage, yet you still have a 32 bit operating system which is still limited by maximum supported installed RAM = 4 GB of which typically 3 GB of that are available. Is it at all possible for you to go all 64 bit, with Windows 7 or 8 64 bit operating system*? If so, you would gain a big advantage having Premiere Elements 12 as a 64 bit application running in the 64 bit operating system. But, even then you want to get the installed RAM to at least 4 to 8 GB.
But, for the here and now, check the motherboard to see how many RAM slots you have and how much it can accept in the way of RAM modules. If you stay with the 32 bit operating system, total 4 GB RAM installed. Or is that what you have now...that is...is your 3 GB RAM reported installed or available RAM? Do you have 4 GB RAM already installed?
What are the properties of our source media for your project...standard definition, standard or widescreen, or high definition 1280 x 720 or 1920 x 1080? What is the typical duration of the projects that you intend to create.
And could you clarify what you mean by
My video clip is slow and jerky in the time line and yes, there is a yellow line through it and no, rendering does not help. The clip plays fine from the window.
I would agree with Ann Bens, that your machine is underpowered for HD tasks. But, you might be able to handle short term HD projects as well as SD projects with tight control over resources, detouring scratch disks et al to an external hard drive for one aspect of the computer resources issues of available RAM and free hard drive space.
Then we should not forget the usual drill of is your video card driver up to date according to the web site of the video card manufacturer?
And, we need clarification on "The clip plays fine from the window." What window?" Where is the clip slow and jerky? Please distinquish between Edit Mode monitor, Preview Window within the program and playback of the export in a player.
And, we should rule in or out whether the project is set up correctly, that is, what project preset is being selected and does it match the properties of the source media??
Please review the above considerations. Then we can try to put the discussion exchanges into perspective to help you move forward in your Premiere Elements 12 projects.
Please do not hesitate ot ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
Thanks.

*For Premiere Elements 10, 11, or 12 to be a 64 bit application on Windows, it is written that it must be running on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit specifically. That means to me operating system, not processor. Until proven otherwise, regarding your 32 bit operating system with a 64 bit processor, that is my take on your specific situation in this regard.

Converting 1080/50p video for import into Premiere Elements

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

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

Video playback on Adobe Premiere Elements 8 no longer works

Windows 7 Professional 64 bit OS

Latest Version Update and Driver Update Installed
Majoirty of video pulled from Flip Camera
What other information is necessary?
I've been working on a video for the last couple of months, and have about 15 minutes of footage. Recently when I opened up the project to work on the last 25% the playback feature stopped working (no sound or audio when play is pressed). I noticed that background rendering was disabled so I re-enabled it, but I am still facing the same problem. I've saved my video in several formats including AVI in hopes that I will be able to finish it at a later date. I am only slightly technical, so please don't waste your time correcting me (I'm sure I've made several mistakes and provided information that is not pertainent to the issue at hand)! Just looking for help, so I can finish my project.
Thank you in advance!

Great news, and actually much better than I had expected - kudos to Lenovo!
Video (and audio) drivers are very fragile things. In regular computing, they are only moderately important, but with programs, like PrE, 3D and CAD apps., the program must interface very deeply with the video driver, and it must be stout. There are many things that can "break" the video driver, and a common one is OS updates. Most Windows OS's are still set on the default update options - fully automatic. This takes place behind the scenes, and the user is seldom aware that the OS has been updated at all. Suddenly, a program like PrE stops working correctly, while most other programs seem to be just fine. Immediately, the user looks to PrE, which is **** just what it did before the OS update - running perfectly fine, but between the program and the Video sub-system, that driver has broken, so things go wrong.
One workaround is to use a System Restore Point, from before the OS update that broke the driver, BUT OS updates are a very, very good thing. Catch-22, if one cannot install an updated driver, that works well with the update status of the OS.
Glad that you found a better solution - new and improved video driver. While you are at it, you might want to check for a new audio driver too, as they are just as fragile, and can bring PrE to its knees.
Good luck,
Hunt

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.

Video not playing in Premiere Elements 9

I have Premiere Elements 9 and can't get the video clips to play. It is just black but can hear the audio fine. When I click on the preview window the video pauses and I get a still image of that point in time. If I preview from the clip section it is blank but also with audio. I have updated my drivers etc and it worked briefly but as soon as I exited the programme and came back in it had stopped working again.
This programme is driving me nuts...Please, how can I get it working?

Yup, everything is already up to date, had already installed 9.01 and defrag was done yesterday. So I deleted the BadDriver.txt file did a disc clean up, rebooted and put Norton into silent mode to stop it running in the background but none of it made a difference. Laptop also has Norton running and doesn't seem to be a problem.
The only things that are obviously different between the laptop and the PC that I can think of are the graphics card and screen resolution (and general specs too of course).
Would be great if someone had a working solution...looking around the internet, seems like a few other people have had similar problems - with no fix yet either.
I don't want to use the programme that came with the camcorder cause it is crap, and I don't want to have to pay for another programme when already forked out heaps for this one. If I have to I'll resort to using Windows Movie Maker as that has no problems but pretty limited in it's functions. SO PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME!!!!
Thanks guys.

How do I rotate a video 90 degrees with premiere elements 9?

I shot a birthday video of the neighbors 5 year old with my Canon T2i camera. Had to turn the camera on its side to get everything in the shot. I can view the video right side up in the canon software but can not make the change permanent so the neighbor can watch it on his computer. Can I rotate the video 90 degrees in premiere and make it permanent? If not, where do I go?
Thanks

As Steve says, Rotation with Video, is not so straightforward.
If you oriented the camera on its side, to get more of the image, then I would recommend that after you Rotate the Video, that you Scale it to fit perfectly within the Frame Size. This will result in Pillar Boxing, with black bars on the sides, as with Video, you have a horizontal Aspect Ratio.
If this was just due to the mechanical need to mount the camera sideways, or due to an error, then one could Rotate, then just Scale Up and effective crop the top, or bottom, or both with the Project's Frame Size.
This is often done when taping actors for bluescreen work, but in that case, one is going to eliminate the bluescreen background anyway, and Key the material into a horizontal Video background, so the end result is different, than what you have.
Now, one artistic treatment would be to Rotate, and then use your footage as a PiP, inside of a larger image. Though it was written for doing this with stills in a Video, look at this ARTICLE for some ideas on how this might be used with your footage. The actual application of those techniques will ONLY be limited by your imagination. Hope that it gives you some good ideas.
Good luck,
Hunt

Can I transfer my video tapes directly into Premiere Elements?

Hi how do I transfer my super 8 videos into adobe Premiere. Do I need anything special or can I just connect my old camcorder to my computer and allow Premiere process the video? One I know is that I will need a RCA cable with yellow (video) and Black (Audio) on one end and a USB on the other end. Where can I get this type of cable. If Adobe can't process this type of video directly what soft would you recommend to do this? Thanks

Thanks for the reply.
From the point of view of WLXVideoAcquireWizard, you should have no problems with the Adobe document suggested workarounds for the 13/13.1 DV and HDV data capture firewire situation.
I have Premiere Elements 13/13.1 on Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit and Windows 8.1 64 bit and both have the WLXVideoAcquireWizard installed in the place as indicated in the Adobe document. But, I do have installed on both computers Windows Live Essentials 2012 which was downloaded and installed to give selectively Movie Maker 2012 and Photo Gallery.
Windows Essentials - Download Windows Live Essentials
Have you checked that out yet? As how your Super 8 would go through that workaround process, I have not tried that.
Looking forward to further comments so we can offer further comments.
Thank you.

Video Preview Pixilated in Premiere Elements 8.0

All of my home movies captured on MiniDV using a Panasonic PV-GS400 in Standard 4:3 are distorted in the preview video in Premiere Elements 8.0. They worked fine in PE 2.0 and were in fact captured using PE 2.0. I've verified that the Projects setting are NTSC DV Standard but the previews are still pixilated to the point that they are unrecognizable.
I know if I re-install PE 2.0 they will work fine. How do I get the previews working properly in 8.0.

Something is wrong somewhere. The capture systems for miniDV in versions 2 and 8 virtually identical. The video is not in any way changed between camcorder and computer. You can capture in version 2, version 8, Windows MovieMaker or WinDV and your AVIs will be identical.
You say you ensured that your version 8 project is set up as 4:3. I also note that you say the PREVIEW is what looks distorted.
Try taking the video in version 8 and Share/Personal Computer to save it as an AVI, WMV or MOV. Have a look at that and see if this output looks distorted.
If it, too, is distorted, we'll know there's something wrong in the program settings. If not, we'll know that something is wrong with your preview window.
Finally, you don't say if your video is squished long or squished tall, but that can make a difference too. If, for instance, your video is squished tall in your preview, note if there are black letterboxing bars along the sides. If so, the problem could be in the project settings you used to capture or even shoot the video!

I need a Video Card for Adobe Premiere Elements, what is recommended?

I wish to buy the Adobe Premiere Elements Video Editing. I shoot on a Cannon GL1 & GL3 mini dvd and need a video card to capture my video footage. What Video Card is recommended for use with the Premieire Elements software? and what is the price? Please advise...

Is the purchased Premiere Elements 12 still in its sealed packaging?
If you have not already, I would suggest that you install Premiere Elements 12 from the purchased installation disc
and evaluate its performance in your computer environment.
a. Does the program fail to install?
b. Do you get Display Card errors?
If you are worried about not being able to return 12 once the package is opened, then you can try the following
a. Download the Premiere Elements 12 tryout files from the following web site and evaluate it as a tryout (full
featured).
http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
Read and carry out carefully the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the web page to avoid Access Denied message.
b. If the tryout performs well for you, then delete the tryout and install your purchased version with the purchased
serial number included on the packaging.
....other possibilities, but just the above for now.

Black bars on youtube videos coming from adobe premiere elements 10?

Every single video that I have edited on this programme, once saved, has come up on youtube with the black bars either side of it. I've tried to fix it but havent been able to. I believe its something to do with the setting that I saved it as but I'm not sure which setting to pick to get the right ratio for the youtube screen. Any gelp Would be most appreciated.

Coolbeans
We will need more information to look for the cause of the issue that you are describing.
1. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running? And, what is the video card that the computer uses?
2. What are the properties of the video that you are using when this issue occurs? I am looking for video and audio compression, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, file extension, pixel aspect ratio.
3. What are you setting as the project preset for this project? The project preset should match the properties of your source video.
4. How are you uploading your Timeline content to YouTube....
a. Are you exporting your Timeline content to a file saved to the computer hard drive and then uploading that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site? If so, please give all the export settings including any customization of the export settings under the Advanced Button of the preset selected.
or
b. Are you using the program feature Share/Computer/Online/YouTube? If so, what preset are you selecting for this upload?
Please review, supply the requested information, and then we will move forward from there.
Thank you.
