Any advantage of using Photoshop with Premiere Elements (instead of Photoshop CS4)?

Soon, we are about to buy a Mini-DV with Premiere Elements camera. We currently have Photoshop CS4. Question: Is there a technical advantage to buy a copy of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements? Are there specific tools in Photoshop Elements that would make video editing more easy than using Photoshop CS4? Thank you.

The biggest advantage to using Photoshop Elements with Premiere Elements is that you can transfer some projects — namely slideshows - from one to the other. In other words, you can start a slide show in Photoshop Elements, and then send it to Premiere Elements for the finishing and DVD release.

But, if you have CS4, I wouldn't bother with Photoshop Elements otherwise. It will feel like a toy compared to the pro version.

  • Lag/rendering with Premiere Elements problems

    During my studies, I was with Premiere Pro, with whom I could work (though I've always been under the impression that I'm playing with a little more than the tip of the iceberg). After leaving University, I looked out for another video editing program, and since most of the comments stated that Premiere Elements has been a good choice for non-professional video editing and certainly adequate for everyday use. So, I got a copy of PElements, which was pretty cheap compared to its big brother.

    However, after trying to edit two videos in one (the same scene taken with different cameras), I must admit that I am a little disappointed.

    The biggest point of contention is the terrible lag. Agency was already overwhelmed by the people, but they did not nearly unworkable program. Then I started to make the two video tracks, that would take about 4 hours for a simple 11:30 (2 x) minutes of video material.

    I used the following for this system:

    Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2180

    2 GHz

    4 GB of Ram

    Windows 7

    32 bit

    Video files, that I worked with were already changed to Avi using the following conversion programs converted camera cassette versions (I had to convert because for some unknown reason, my old Premiere Pro has refused to work with AVCHD or vlc.tod - files, so I did not worth to try it here).

    Free Video Converter V3.0.0.0 (Koyote Soft)

    Output Avi Format

    MS-Mpeg4-V2 codec

    Any Video Converter (MPlayer)

    Output Avi Format

    Mpeg4 codec

    So, my question would be: is this normal? I guess, if anything, items would be faster than Pro because it is less complicated, but appearently I was mistaken. What is the reason - is the obsolete system, do I have to use special presets for a video clip or is the format of data file I used to blame for either or both of my problems?

    (other questions are cut-editing tools and color are much coarser than those of the body, but I guess this is intentional)

    Your gun shoots in a variety of formats. If you want to edit in Premiere Elements, you should shoot only in MXP or FXP mode. (Leave the Everio out of the mix for this part of the experiment, since these cams have their own unique challenges.)

    You should then beyond a Premiere Elements project using the project settings for stereo 1920 x 1080 AVCHD full.

    Use the elements first get the media / Flip and AVCHD camcorder to import video from your camcorder to your computer and place the video on the timeline. You should not see red lines above clips. You should also see pretty good performance when you work with it.

    Also, your computer may be low power to work with this type of video. Hi-def video can take a long time to render, particularly on a dual-core computer. But converted to a different format using another program will not improve things a lot unless you know for sure your perfect product converter Type 2 DV - AVI.

    In fact, you can produce a Type 2 DV - AVI from this video AVCHD with Premiere Elements. Just place your AVCHD videos on this once and then go to the action/computer/AVI and select it as the DV PRESET. The video it produces should work very well in a project set up for widescreen DV. It will be the standard definition rather than hi-def - but, if you plan out your last video in standard definition (for example, online or on DVD) you might as well work with it in this format.

    But as I have described above as your experience. Try not all high-end and do not mix the Everio format in your project again and see if it improves things.

    Once find you a clean and efficient workflow that works with the best video formats, you should see a significant improvement in performance.

    But for now, stay away from third-party video converters. They seem to be working against you.

    You can install and activate, until, two computers.  So yes, you can install on your new computer to win 10.

    If you have already activated on two, disable (help > deactivate) on your old computer before uninstalling it on your old computer.

  • Tell Acrobat 9 Pro using Photoshop CS4

    I have the Creative Suite Design Premium 5 installed, for reasons that I won't go in, Photoshop CS5 is a dog on my system. It is simply unusable. All the other CS5 applications will work perfectly.

    Acrobat 9 Pro wants to edit images using Photoshop CS5. I wish I could say Acrobat simply use Photoshop CS4 (since this version works in fact). Is there a pref or something somewhere that I can put?

    I looked and didn't see anything.

    Am I went to simply uninstall Photoshop CS5?

    (Although PSCS5 is currently unusable, I hope an update somewhere of a person does that $900 no waste.)

  • Free disc of Premiere Elements with the new camera. Installed on the pc and have shortcuts for items and items first. The serial No. work with Premiere Elements, but not Photoshop Elements. Why is this?

    Hi, I'm new to this bear so please with me. I have a free disc of Premiere Elements with a new canon camera and install it on my pc windows 8.1. After installation I have a shortcut for first elements and a shortcut for the elements, I guess that first for the video and photo elements. The drive came with a serial No. who worked with first, but when I opened elements, he asked for a serial No. but when I tried the same series only.  It says this serial No. is not valid for Adobe photoshop elements. I'm something wrong, I am missing a serial number, do I have to pay to use the side elements (photo editor), and if so I don't understand why he loaded the two programs on a disk I thought it was a big split in video and photo program.

    Help, please.

    Photoshop elements and first elements are two different programs (as you know).  they have different serial numbers used to activate them.

    If you were supposed to get both with your camera, you should have two serial numbers: quickly find your serial number

    However, is it possible that you had only to get a serial number of elements first and photoshop elements was provided as a trial (to see if you want to buy a serial number)?

  • Video encoding for Youtube - no advantage of using Pro (SOUL) on elements?

    I'm encoding of music for youtube videos.  I am currently using settings suggested Steve Grisetti of mid-2011 here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/623549

    What I was asking is if Adobe Media Encoder supplied with Premiere Pro (or another such program with more features than the first Elements 7 encoder) would work better?   For example, I noticed these programs have options such as 256 Kbps audio, 2-pass bit rate Variable (which seems not to have PE7).  To provide the best quality?  Of course, I need the best possible.

    Also, I read the suggestions various others that FLV is a better choice than h264 export as less recoding of Youtube is over - any truth to that?

    Finally, is exporting to 1080 instead of 720 (and therefore giving youtube users to choose either 1080 or 720) be better in the long run, or is there a reason why 720 is suggested?

    My videos are short and have been published from the vob DVD files.  I'm very new to encoding so really appreciate suggestions!

    Thank you!

    There is no real advantage to the use of the Media Encoder. The files will have the same appearance.

    As long as your project settings match your video source, output parameters should give you excellent quality on YouTube. All the best, actually.

    It doesn't matter if you use MP4s or FLV files. YouTube goes even YouTube-ify it.

  • S - Video capture with Premiere Elements

    I've been using Premiere Pro 2 for some time and have always been able to capture video from my Sky Box or video recorder with my Matrox RTX100 card using the s-video inputs.

    I recently bought a camera with HD (Sony NEX-5) capabilities and purchased Premiere Elements because my old PP2 will not recognize HD.

    PE does not recognize my Matrox card, so I can not download any more.

    Does anyone know how to download EP from a VCR or a TV?

    Thank you.

    In general, I find it better to download/video capture in a file using the application of origin for each device and do not use PE9 to capture.

    I have an old camera to DV tape and a strong memory HD camera and use different software supplied with each camera to create the files on my hard drive.

    The old tapes Sony DV SD camera has a video input which is ideal for capturing composite video VCR in AVI format.   The Sony software debtor can capture live directly from the tape using firewire, as he does not know if the DV tape or VCR plays.

    Only so I use these files in PE9 and I never hurt to mix .h2ts and. AVI formats.

    You must keep the original software that is most appropriate for your capture device (unless PE2 does a better job anyway).

  • Sony HDR - HC9 problems with Premiere elements 9

    If I have problems getting my HDV camcorder recognized by Elements 9.

    When setting up my project I choose the correct settings to my knowledge (PAL HDV 1080i 25) but when I go to import media from him he told me there is no connected equipment. It is found in the regular DV section but not in the HDV format.

    When I set it up to be a DV project it has no image on screen when importing media (probably because it is recorded in the HDV format)

    I am only using the trial version to make sure that it aorks all before you buy. I would like to use this software, because that's what I've used in the past, with older cameras etc.

    Someone knows how to solve this problem, or what may be the problem?

    You mentioned that Premiere Elements recognizes your camera when get you the DV camcorder media, correct? This means that your camera in the camera settings are on DV instead of HDV.

    You can check this by going to the options in the menu of your camera, then switch to set camera and check the settings of the video recorder. It should be instead of DV HDV.

    There are many sons of Premiere Elements and a solution on the use of music iTunes in Premiere Elements.

    The solution is to convert the iTunes version wav music in iTunes before importing the file into a Premiere Elements project.

    The iTunes how can be found

    I went through this conversion of music several times, so if you need more details in this iTunes database conversion,

    do not hesitate to ask.

    If the music which is very old music to iTunes, then we might have to discuss the issue.

    Using Premiere Elements, how share (export) part of my video, not all this?

    carol2r

    What version of Premiere Elements you are using and on what computer operating system is running? For now, I will assume first elements 12 on Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 64bits.

    1. place the grey bar activities tabs so that they cover all the timeline content that is to be exported.

    To position the grey legs... Move the indicator of chronology for the beginning of the segment to be exported, you hold down the Alt key, press the [key left hook

    .. [then move the indicator in the timeline to the end of the segment to be exported, you hold down the ALT key, press the right bracket]

    2. the other necessary part of this task is for you to have a check mark next to the option "Share activities Bar only" as part of the export. See publish + share/computer /... Most have the option "Activities part only", some do not.

    Don't forget, you need 1 and 2 of the above to make it work.

    Please provide more details for fine adjustment of the replica. If screenshots are needed, I will post them.

    Looking forward to your follow-up to the top.

    Thank you.
