Video Clip incompatable with premier elements 11

I have taken a small video clip with my fuji camera.  I downloaded this clip to my computer.  I then tried to import it into premier elements 11 so that I could edit.  Error message received is 'this file is not supported or required codec not installed'.  Is there a simple solution to this problem?  Also for the future if I was to purchase a video camera what should I look for so I know my video clips will be compatable?

Given you are using Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is it running?
What is the specific model of the Fuji camera that you are using and what have you set for recording? Do you see any mention of an .avi file extension and/or the resolution 720p (1280 x 720)? Did a utility come with the camera to supply necessary codecs?
It is best if you post a MediaInfo properties readout for the video file that is giving the error message.
http://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo
You could also try looking a video and audio codec status via the gpot utility
http://www.headbands.com/gspot/v26x/quick_start.html
What is the file extension for this video? And, have you ever gotten this video to import successfully in Premiere Elements (any version)?
But, if you have any difficulties with that, we can always try to figure out the video properties from the brand/model and settings for the camera.
Once we figure out what went wrong here, we will be better able to advise on matters moving forward with other video editing projects.
The answers will be in the details.
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thanks.

  • How to use LightRoom with Premier Elements?

    I have recently learned LightRoom 5 and feel fairly comfortable with it. I'm now in the process of working on movie editing starting with Premier Elements 11. I'm just starting to go through it and I see that it integrates with an organizer that seems germaine to the Elements group. Issue is that I'm already using LR for organization. Am consequently a bit confused.
    Can anyone suggest how to work with LR and Premier Elements together?
    A secondary question has to do with audio file management. I see that the Elements Organizer also includes audio files. But LR doesn't. To date I've managed audio with Windows Media Player. Can anyone offer any suggestions for moving forward with audio management?

    I use Lightroom 5.2 and Premier Elements 11 on a fast video optimized i7 PC laptop with lots of memory.  It even has a Blu-Ray burner!
    My photo and video files are first copied and stored by camera and date.  Then I use LR to organize and preview, review and select both photos and clips.  IMO, the clip preview ability of LR is very good.  LR will let you make some simple edits to clips but I don't use that for video, only photos.  My photos will be a mix of JPG and RAW and I will tune them with LR.  Some of the photos may get some extra masking or HDR work elsewhere and then brought back into LR.  
    As I've preview the clips, as well as photos, that I want to use I put them in a LR collection.  Next I prepare a project specific folder on my SSD named something like "Vacation Trip".   If it is a big project, I may make some sub folders such as city names.  
    The big step is to "Export" copies of all the assets I've selected for the collection.  I open the collection and select everything in it.  Right click, pick Export, set the destination, rename them if desired, select "include video", select "Original" video format, select PSD for images and push the Export button.
    The reason for "Original" video is because I don't want any extra compression or processing of the video clips.  I want Premier Elements to do that.  The reason for "PSD" is that I want my LR adjustments of the still photos to be included before I put them in the project. 
    Next I open a new PrE project.  Before adding any assets, I make sure the the scratch disks are assigned to the project folder. 
    With the scratch disks set, I then load the assets.  I make sure one of the primary video clips is the first to be placed on the timeline as that adjusts the "Project Settings" if necessary.  Then I start building the video with the security of knowing I'm only working on a set of image and clip copies.
    My audio file management is done entirely the old fashioned way in Windows Explorer.  I have an audio assets folder and a system of descriptive folder and file names.  I can preview them from Windows Explorer before I import a copy to a project folder.  Adjustments to volume and clip length are done to he copy in PrE.  I frequently buy a $2 audio clip from Vimeo specific for the project because I like having a license to use the music!
    When I'm done, I move the entire project folder somewhere for long term storage. 
    Hope some of this works for you.  If you have suggestions, I would appreciate hearing them.

  • Any chance to have a working system with Premier Elements?

    I've tried a good number of different video editors for HD video editing and they all lack certain features here and there that I find necessary for myself. I don't want anything out of this world, just a good, solid performance combined, ease of use, easy video clip import, good image quality from rendering and - that's it. Nothing special. No fireworks, do dancing girls...  Now, out of all the programs Premier Elements seemed to be very good, BUT it lacked the stability. Big time... Once I was working with that, the program just kept on crashing. Even if it would crash only once every 30 minutes, I could have taken that, but no... Had to be every second minute...
    But, that was still with Windows Vista, and I blame Vista for much of the problems. I've upgraded - with blood, toil, sweat and tears, to Windows 7, which already has proven to be much, much more stable than Vista. So, the question is that do I have a chance to have a working solution with Premier Elements and Windows 7, running with multicore processor and 8 Gb of memory and soon with dedicated HD's for operating system and program files, video files and intermediate working storage? Will my dream ever come true?

    Welcome to the forum.
    It is possible, as many here report great success running PrE 8 on many different systems. Probably the biggest consideration is the optimization of one's hardware and their OS. This ARTICLE will offer a few tips on the software end of things, and for Win7, be sure to look down the thread and see Black Viper's optimization page.

  • What file do I play on my computer in a AVCHD disk folder created with premier elements 12?

    What file do I play on my computer in a AVCHD disk folder created with premier elements 12?

    Phantomkeeper
    Just in case note...the DVD-VIDEO folders/files structure is different from that of the AVCHD format.
    For DVD-VIDEO (burn to folder)
    VIDEO_TS Folder
    and your menus are typically found in VTS_01_0.VOB file in the VIDEO_TS Folder
    and your video is typically found in VTS_01_0.VOB file in the VIDEO_TS Folder
    For AVCHD format (burn to folder)
    BDMV Folder
    and your video is typically 00000.m2ts file in the STREAM Folder
    and your menus are typically 00001.m2ts and 00002.m2ts files  in the StREAM Folder.
    If you want a single file (not yet on a disc) that will play back your Premiere Elements export, then I think you need a consider disc image file (.iso or .vdd).
    http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/11/pe12-disc-imagephantom-burner-pe.html
    If you take the BDMV Folder from the Premiere Elements AVCHD (with menus) burn to folder into a 3rd party software like ImgBurn, you can put the BDMV Folder on a DVD or Blu-ray disc (to get BDMV Folder and an added CERTIFICATE Folder) and play that back with menus on a Blu-ray player that supports those formats on a supported disc type.
    You wrote
    but I was looking for the file like the VIDEO_TS file that plays from the menu in a DVD folder.
    I have never gotten the VIDEO_TS.VOB file (standalone file) in the VIDEO_TS Folder to playback with a computer player or any other. So, please explain how you have accomplished this, including the player name and whether standalone or computer.
    Please review. If you need clarification on anything written, please do not hesitate to ask. The situation above is my take on the matter.
    Thanks.

  • How do I get video clips into Organizer from Elements?

    I have broken my raw video into pieces in elements but can't get it to import into organizer.
    I am using Elements 11 Trial.

    The video is actually a football highlight film for our son and came to us as a single mp4 file with about 60 plays of video on it.
    What I am trying to do is
    1) Cut it down into 60 individual videos (which I did and currently have in my project).
    2) Save the pieces off as individual video clips.
    3) Get the ability to rank/rate each video and select the 25 or so that will make up the final video.
    4) Polish/edit those that make the grade.
    5) Organize and assemble.
    Does this make sense?

Pick a file type that suits your needs.  Be sure to check the box titled "Share WorkArea Bar Only".  Unfortunately, the clip piece will be re-encoded.  PrE11 will do that well, but not perfect because any encoding always seems to loose a little. You did not say what camera you are using.  The software that came with my Sony and Panasonic camcorders is much better for splitting clips into smaller clips.  Some sort of magic is in them where re-encoding does not take place.  The pieces have the same picture quality as the original.   So, when I do what you want, I break it into pieces with the camcorder software, the put the video together in PrE with all the creative tools it offers.  Bill

  • How do I open projects created using Premier Elements 8 with Premier Elements 13

    how do I open projects created using Premier Elements 8 with Premier Elements 13

    ATR
    The DVD Creator.dll file was in the proper location but I could not find a Run As Administrator Option.
    I did delete Prefs file and try again to open the app then the project and received the same problem.  And the scratch disks were all directed to the Elements 13 path
    Yesterday I did try additional solutions
    Removed the Elements 13 App vis the Control Panel, copy the original downloaded .zip File to the Desktop and reload the entire application with no success solving the problem
    In addition to that I contacted a site called Rescue.com? and the guy told me that he was a representative of Adobe, which I was not sure was the truth.  He looked at my system and told me that Premier 13 was not compatible with Windows 7.  I called BS on him told him that Adobe site said it was compatible and he told me I had a Trojan on my system and he would refund my money for Elements 13 and sell me version 12, which would be compatible, along with a better security system than the Norton 360 I told him I had.  At that point I immediately terminated our communications and called Norton to have additional checks performed to ensure no additions were added to my system.  They had me download and run Power Eraser from them and it found nothing wrong. 
    I also temporarily turned off the firewall and tried to use the Elements 13 but had no success.
    I also went to Microsoft Windows site and searched for the Exception code: 0xc0000005 that was displayed in the event viewer and they indicated there was a hotfix available and they would email me that fix.  ave not received the email yet.
    I’m getting very frustrated but thank you for your help.  I will update you with and additional results or actions I get or perform.

  • FCPX 10.1: why is some video clips shown with a connected clip icon ?

    Hi there,
    I have finally updated to 10.1
    But after conversion, in the browser, why are there some video clips shown with a connected clip icon ? And it doesn't play ?
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks

    The edited project was 60 seconds making up an intricate title sequence involving 24 video segments and 48 png/ PSD files.  Had a brain storm and was wondering if there is anyway the the project could move to another event so currently going through all the event folders on my FCPX edit drive. I just can't see how a project can just vanish.
    Thanks for your suggestion.

  • How do I play videos with premier elements 10

    I have just uploaded some mixed photos and videos to my computer using adobe premier elements 10 but I cant play the videos. A box appears saying i need the compression de compression codex. Where do Iget these?

    It is very likely that those Videos contain a CODEC, that is not installed on your computer. The file extensions, such as AVI, MOV, WMV, etc., are but "wrappers," and so very much can be contained within those wrappers. This ARTICLE goes into more detail, and tells you how to "peek inside the wrapper." That is why Steve is asking about the camcorder, that created the files - to find out what the CODEC is, that is inside the wrapper.
    If the files use a CODEC, that PrE can use (very many, but not even close to all), it might be as simple as locating that CODEC, downloading and installing it, then rebooting. For more info on CODEC's in general, see this ARTICLE.

  • AVHCD my HD experience so far with Premier Elements 7

    Hi
    I thought I would try and contribute to the ongoing discussion about HD video, and in particular the use of AVHCD media with Premiere Elements 7. I
    wandered into this arena rather than planning my way in but luckily I am having a good time. I hope my experiences may be useful to others here.
    My aim is to shoot and edit video at the best quality possible but remaining comfortably within the current capability of my PC and its
    operating system.
    I am no editing expert by any means but I have been editing my home movies for several years using various bits of software and operating systems
    along the way.
    I am brand new to the world of High Definition and I currently intend to playback my movies on a Sony PS3 and a high definition tv. I archive my
    finished movies on hard disk rather than burn to DVD. I dont yet have a blueray burner.
    My current equipment.
    ================
    Camera
    ======
    My camera is the Sony AVCHD HDR-TG7VE. It has 4 HD recording modes.
    HD FH = 1920 x 1080/50i 16M
    HD HQ = 1440 x 1080/50i 9M
    HD SP = 1440 x 1080/50i 7M
    HD LP = 1440 x 1080/50i 5M
    For further details see here

    Computer
    ========
    My editing system consists of the following;
    Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz
    4 GB RAM
    3 SATA Hard drives, for for system files, 2 WD caviar black drives for editing.
    Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 32bit version.
    Premier Elements 7 full version.

    CPU Score 5.60 (Calculations per second)
    Memory Score 5.90 (Memory operations per second)
    Graphics Score 5.90 (Desktop performance for Windows Aero)
    D3D Score 5.90 (3D business and gaming graphics performance)
    Disk Score 5.70 (Disk data transfer rate)
    Windows Experience Index 5.60 (Base score)
    Current workflow
    ================
    I have only been experimenting for a couple of days but this is my current
    workflow.
    I shoot my video in HD HQ.
    I use the supplied Sony software to get the files into my PC
    I convert those files into MPEG2HD using Free AVCHD Converter V1.0 as recommended on this site.
    I leave the output format as standard except I raise the Video bitrate to 2500 Kbps as recommended in other posts on here.
    I use the HDV 720p 25 preset for my project
    I output as a PC file, MPEG HD720p
    Using these settings I have a pleasant editing experience and the finished product is certainly much better than using standard definition. When I add my clips to the timeline I don't get the red bar across the top of them unless I add an effect. This saves rendering time and provides for smooth playback within Premiere Elements 7 as I check my edits.
    Now, I have no idea if what I am doing is correct and I would dearly love to hear suggestions for how I can improve things further. The good news for me however is that I can use my new camera without having to upgrade my PC.
    Regards
    Ken

    Ken,
    Welcome to the forum, and thank you for taking the time to post your workflow.
    While the CPU could be beefier, it's comforting to see that your I/O sub-system (your HDD's) are set up better than 99% of the people out there, for editing. Way to go! BTW, if your CPU is doing it for you, I'd not worry about it, until you build your next machine. You are getting more out of yours, than many with Quad-core chips, and some with dual-Quads. That is a testament to a strong machine and a clean one too.
    With your sucess, I feel that your workflow might well be a useful baseline for others.
    Thanks for posting,
    Hunt

  • Problems with Premier Elements 7 Opening Earlier Projects

    I have used Premier Elements 3 to create many 15-60 minute videos, most built from Photoshop Elements slide shows imported into Premier, and most with DVD output designed. After installing Version 7, I attempted to open these projects which it is supposed to do. A minority will open fine. The balance either cause the error "The project cannot be loaded - it may be damaged or contain outdated elements".
    Does anyone else have these types of problems? I have tried all of the various methods outlined in the KB, like deleting preferences, etc., removing and re-installing, booting with nothing else loaded, etc. Nothing has any impact. I have talked to Adobe support and they are clueless and just walk me through the usual install/uninstall, etc. can anyone help? I have an enormous investment in time in these 3.0 videos and I bought Version 7 to upgrade and now it does not work! Thanks.

    Just a thought....
    How are you opening the Premiere Elements 3 project in Premiere Elements 7?
    According to the Adobe party line Premiere Elements 7 PDF, you can open projects created in earlier versions of Premiere Elements in Premiere Elements 7, but you cannot open projects created in Premiere Elements 7 in earlier versions.
    Do you have Premiere Elements 3 and 7 on the same computer at this time?
    The Adobe suggestions is, if problems in this regard and instead of right clicking the project file in its saved location, then:
    1. open the project from with Premiere Elements 7
    or
    2. right click the project file in its saved location and name Premiere Elements 7 as the Open With program
    Check it out to see if I have interpreted this info correctly

  • How to stop the jerking of my video clips? on Premiere Element 10

    How do I stop the jerking of my video clips when I add  effetcs ..to do not zoom in or out etc..smoothly.
    Thank-you,
    Claudette

    Claudette,
    When you started your Project, from the New Project screen, you were given some choices. If you do not recall what you chose, you can go to Edit>Projects Settings>General, and see what you chose. I do not think that location has moved in PrE 10, but if it has, someone will correct me.
    Now, in very general circumstances, one should choose a Project Preset, that matches their Video Source Files 100%, or there can be issues.
    However, if one ONLY has Still Images, and there is no Video being used, things differ a bit. In that instance, one would ask themselves a question, "how will I deliver my Video, created from those Still Images?" That answer might be a DVD-Video, a BD (Blu-ray Disc), a streaming Video files on a Web site, or as a file, that one sends to others. With a Stills Only Project, one would most likely choose a Project, that matches their delivery. If there are several delivery schemes used, then I would recommend choosing the one that is the highest resolution, and handling the others with Export/Share.
    Now, within all Project Presets, there is a Frame Size, say 720 x 480 for an NTSC DV Project, designed to go to DVD-Video, or perhaps 1920 x 1080 for the production of a BD. Though PrE can Scale large Still Images to fit, it does not do the best job, and there is a major processing "hit," that can bring a computer to its knees. For those reasons, we recommend using a program, such as Photoshop, or Photoshop Elements, to do that Scaling, before one Imports the Still Images into the PrE Project. For SD (Standard Definition) DV, the "rule of thumb" is to Scale to 1000 x 750 pixels. For an HD Project, that same thinking would be 2000 x 1500 pixels. That gives one some "wiggle room." I will actually Scale to the exact pixel x pixel dimensions, unless I have a compelling reason to do otherwise - then, I will calculate the larger size, and Scale to exactly that.
    How will you deliver your Project?
    What are the specs. of the Project (using the method above)?
    What are the pixel x pixel dimensions of your images? If they are random, then concentrate on the larger ones, please.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
