With a Duo-core Xeon, you should be fine with SD material.
With the MOD files, this ARTICLE and its links, might prove useful. Be sure to follow all the links to other articles, and especially see the replies in those by Chris at JVC, as he knows those files intimately, and uses PrE to edit them.
As for OS, Win7 would be the way to go. It seems to have proved to be better than Vista, in almost every instance. The question is then - 32-bit, or 64-bit. Things to think about: PrE is not yet a 64-bit program, so cannot fully take advantage of a 64-bit OS. Win7-64 still seems to have some driver issues, but the people writing the drivers are catching up, and there is hope that by SP1, those will no longer be an issue. Also, one needs more RAM installed, to take advantage of a 64-bit OS, and your MoBo probably cannot take any more RAM. Also, the speed and connection of the RAM can be important, and your BIOS (and MoBo sockets), probably cannot take advantage of this newer RAM. If you are not planning on upgrading the MoBo and your RAM, then you will probably be much happier with a tuned Win7-32-bit OS. However, some programs are being released for 64-bit ONLY, like PrPro CS5. They will not run on a 32-bit OS. With the 32-bit OS, you do lock yourself out of some programs. It becomes a tough call, and only you can make it.
Good luck,

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 12: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed

    Hallo! I use Adobe Premiere Elements 12 on my computer (PC, windows 7). When I try do re-open my projects on Adobe Premiere Elements I get the message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed. The file type of my saved projects is: Adobe Premiere Elements Project (.prel). The same happens when i try to re-open the auto save files. This is very annoying because I losse all my earlier work. I would be really grateful for help. Best regards, Stefan

  • Video editing & playback issues: Adobe Premiere Elements 8

    Hello all,
    I have made several attempts at transfering HD video  files from my camcorder to my PC and then editing.
    When I try to play the transferred file, it is a little choppy and then gets worse as I edit it.
    Here are my specs/config:
    System:
    HP Pavilion a6720y
    Windows Vista 64 bit
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 440
    AMD Phenon 9550 Quad Core 2.2Ghz
    6GB RAM
    640GB SATA drive, 7200 rpm
    Camera:
    Sony HDR-XR150
    Editing Software:
    Adobe Premiere Elements 8
    I copy the video files from the camcorder to the computer via USB 2.0.
    When I connect the camera directly to the TV the video plays without any issues.  So I know the AVCHD files are "good" and I suspect they are also possibly "good" on my hard drive, but just cannot be played or edited appropriately for some reason.
    One input I received was that due to the nature of AVCHD files, I should convert the video to "I-frame codec" and then edit.  Can Adobe Premiere Elements do this?
    Any other thoughts/ideas?
    Thanks for any help.

    6GB RAM
    PE version 8 is 32bit, so is not using all of your ram
    640GB SATA drive, 7200 rpm
    I edit AVCHD (with PPro) with THREE hard drives
    My 3 hard drives are configured as...
    1 - 320Gig Boot for Win7 64bit Pro and all program installs
    2 - 320Gig data for Win7 swap file and video project files
    When I create a project on #2 drive, the various work files follow,
    so my boot drive is not used for the media cache folder and files
    3 - 1Terabyte data for all video files... input & output files (*)
    (*) for 4 drives, drive 3 all source files & drive 4 all output files
    Search Microsoft to find out how to redirect your Windows swap file
    http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US
    Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
    You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
    Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
    You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
    A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
    You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
    I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
    Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing

    A USB3 hard drive connected to a motherboard with USB3 is supposed to be fast enough for video editing (I don't have such, so don't know) but eSata DOES have a fast enough data transfer for video editing... I have not used the eSata Dock below... for reference only, YMMV and all the usual disclaimers

  • Adobe Premiere Elements plugin for fisheye/barrel distortion correction

    I want to correct the fisheye/barrel lens distortion in a GoPro MP4 video recording. Can Adobe Premiere Elements do this (I've searched for such a function in my APE 11 without success) or is there a plugin which will do this and which is compatible with APE 11 ?

    That is good news, and for $49, sounds like a deal. ProDAD does some nice applications and plug-ins, but I had not heard of that one - learned something new.
    I was going to mention Alien Skin (also do some neat plug-ins), as they have/had a similar "lens distortion" module in their lineup. However, I did not see PrE listed as a host application, so held off. Most of their plug-ins work in Photoshop, Premiere Pro and After Effects. We see similar with plug-ins from Red Giant and Boris, where PrE is not a viable host app. Not sure why not, but it must be in the numbers - both user-bases and $, as Boris & RG plug-ins often cost 3x what PrE does.
    It's also great that the ProDAD plug-in offers some stabilization - probably a bit of their Mecalli stabilizer is built-in - you get a "twofer!"
    Thanks for that info, and happy editing,

  • Another "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Elements to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project."

    When I try an open the original project or a copy of it I get this message.
    "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Elements to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project."
    I have tried to create a new project and get the same message.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program a few times.
    The last time I worked on the project I had no issues.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi
    a. Open Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 - Yes, I get the welcome screen (v9.0).  I can choose open project, and choose my project.  The program will open and show that it is loading the project with the scroll line will show all the way to 100% and will stay there.  Sometimes I get the "Sorry" message and sometimes the loading project window just goes away and nothing is loaded and the program stays on the clock until I close it.
    b. You can find the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and deletion of it makes no difference to your issue. - Made no difference
    c. Have you deleted the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists? If not, please do so. - Done, made no difference
    1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled? - Running McAfee Total Access Protection.  Turned off firewall and anti virus. It works.  As a test I left the anti virus off and tried loading project with and with out the firewall turned on.  The project loaded each time.  I then tested the firewall on, with and with out antivirus.  Antivirus off - project loads each time.  Antivirus on - doesn't load and program stays on clock.
    I will continue to experiment with it and see what happens.  The last time I used it I was running a different McAfee product than no.  So it seems to work with the Firewall on and the Antivirus off.

  • Sorry, a serious error has occured that requires Adobe Premiere elements to shut down. We wil attempt to save your current project. This error occures when Im adding a .mov movie.

    Hello everybody
    I have a new laptop and when I want to add a .mov movie to Adobe premiere elements, this error occures. Im trying to solve this problem now for days but I dont know how to continue. Im working with Windows XP, Version 2002, T2250, 0.99 RAM and an old Premiere elements 2004 version.
    On my old computer I was able to add this same .mov movies, but not on the new one.
    I also tried to convert this .mov movies, but the quality was to bad...
    Does anybody know this problem? Im appreciating every little advice and help.
    Thanks a lot
    Sabine

    Sabine
    Sorry for all the delays getting your thread moving forward. I suspect that it got lost in the daily thread traffic and Adobe's major updating of the forums.
    Do your issues still exist. If they are the same as when you posted on May 8th, then
    1. When you used HandBrake for the converslion of your .mov file, did you leave the Container = Mp4. And under Video Tab, did you set the Videc Codec = H.264 (x264)? All you needed to do at that point was dot the Constant for the frame rate and designate a frame rate and select the Start button and wait for the Queue Finished message in the progress bar at the bottom left of the HandBrake workspace.
    2. What model iPhone is the video coming from? Your iPhone is probably giving you HD video (probably 1080p). So increasing the computer's installed RAM from 2.00 to 4 GB would be expected to help the overall workflow. Only if you have a 64 bit computer operating system, 8 GB installed would be even better. The 4 GB installed RAM is the maximum supported by a 32 bit computer operating system.
    3. Specially for
    The movie is stopping and jumping.
    When you are playing back the Timeline content, are you looking at the "rendered Timeline"? Is there an red line over the content during that playback? If so, press the Enter key and wait for the render process to complete. This rendering process gives you the best possible preview of what you are seeing. The red  line could be due to your editing the content, or it could be due to an incorrect selection of project settings. If you supply information about your video properties, we can suggest the best possible project settings. I do not recall seeing that you mentioned what version of Premiere Elements that you are using 1, 2, 3, 4 or other?
    Please review the above and then let me know what supplemental information and/or clarification would help.
    Thank you.

  • Premiere Elements 7, Sorry, a serious error has occurred  that requires Adobe Premiere Elements to..

    Hi, my software just recently started giving me the folowing error and it does not work (start):
    Sorry, a serious error has occured that requires Adone Premiere Elements to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project.
    I had tried everything, even uninstalling and reinstalling the program and still it does not work. Does anybody have this issue?
    Do you know how to fix it?

    I found the root casue of the problem. I just turn OFF the McAfee antivirun software and the Premiere Elements 7 works now. 
    I realized that McAfee updated the version on April 20 and i think this version has a problem with the Adobe Premiere Elements programm.

  • Premiere Elements 9 - "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Elements....

    When I start up a new project in Premiere Elements 9, the only thing that comes up is the gray screen.  When I try to open any existing project, I get the following message:
    "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Elements to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project."
    I have tried all of the suggestions on this website and still, nothing works.  Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    JerryK713
    First question that comes to mind is "Is this a never worked before type issue or it worked before but not now type issue?"
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 9 running on? Do you have the Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 Update installed? And, the typical drill questions, do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed and are you working from a User Account with Administrative Priviledges?
    Since Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 is a 32 bit application, we would revisit the question of your computer resources...processor, installed/available RAM, free hard drive space? Is your computer optimized...defragmented, video and audio card drivers up to date, pile ups preview files and conformed video and audio files cleaned out? Scratch Disks directed to save location with enough free space to receive them?
    Have you checked to make sure that antivirus and firewalls are not contributing to or causing the issue?
    Another thought...are you running a dual (or more) monitor setup with your current video card?
    Please review and then we can decide what next.
    Thanks.

  • Premiere Elements 9 - "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Elements..(2)

    Hi,
    I have the exact same problem as described here but the solution proposed here didn't work:
    Premiere Elements 9 - "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Elements....
    I'm still getting the message "Sorry, a serious error has occured that requires Adobe Premiere Elements to shut down.  We will attempt to save your current project.".
    I uninstalled, reboot, installed, reboot a few times and it still doesn't work.
    Any suggestions?  I'm using Premiere Elements 9 and Windows 7, 64 bits.  It was working before.  It started after I had to reformat my harddrive and reinstall everything.
    Thanks,

    ...By the way, when you did that and deletion of the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs deletion did not resolve the problem, did you then delete the whole folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists?
    [YH] Yes I did but it didn't work.
    1. When you did the uninstall/reinstall, did you include a ccleaner run through between the uninstall and the reinstall? Good idea to do that to remove any leftovers from incomplete uninstall reinstalls.
    [YH] Done but didn't work. I just ran the CCleaner free version.  I'm not sure if it's enough.
    2. Do you have the 9.0.1 Update installed.
    [YH] Done but didn't work.
    Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer
    [YH] I didn't have QuickTime installed.  It is now but didn't do any difference.  I uninstalled Adobe Premiere Elements, ran CCleaner, reboot, installed APE, reboot... still doesn't work.
    3. Are you running your computer from a User Account with Administrative Privileges as well as Run As Administrator (from right click of program desktop icon and selection of Run As Administrator?
    [YH] Yes
    4. Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    [YH] I'm assuming yes because it was working before.
    5. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus program disabled?
    [YH] I haven't tried yet but see item number 6 below.
    6. Go to Computer/Manage/Services and Applications/Services and assure that FLEXnet Licensing Service is started.
    [YH] I don't see any FLEXnet.  I don't remember installing this on any computer.  I googled it but I'm not sure I understand what and from where to install it.  I checked at work on another computer running Adobe Premiere Elements and FLEXnet is running on that computer. So this might be the source of the problem.
    7. The following is a version 12 remedy, let us see if this will work for 9.0/9.0.1
    As described in the link below, rename the SLCache Folder and the SLStore Folder.
