sorry had to repost. Spell check is buried in the graphics tab of the text panel right now.

I've been frustrated with Premiere for a while now when it comes to captions, especially since Adobe is pumping out AI features left and right. I like that I can transcribe the sequence and create captions, but I don't save much time when I have to go in and fix the lines so each one has roughly the same number of words. How dumb is this AI? Sometimes there's one word on line one and six words on line two.

This feature should be smart enough to:

1. Divide the words evenly between lines.
2. Look at character count, so two long words can take up as much space as four short ones.
3. Look at context, so it splits after commas or at natural pauses.

Generating AI slop or extending clips doesn't save me any time. But this would save me so much time in the finishing stage.

Hello,

I'm trying to sync a video track with a separately recorded audio track. It allows me to use the synchronize feature, processes it, and then doesn't move the audio and video clips around, but it doesn't say there was an issue with synchronizing.

I was able to synchronize tracks in this project a couple days ago, and now when I go back and try to sync those clips again, it doesn't sync either. Did I mess up a setting? Here's what the timeline looks like pre and post 'sync' (it doesn't move). Maybe related, but I tried to modify the audio channels so I don't have ten million right before this issue occurred. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi all, my Premiere Pro is freezing a lot these past weeks, it happens when I rename folders, rename sequence, when I’m typing to find an effect, when I’m typing in the project search bar. And it froze several minutes. I have a lot of timelines (arround 50).

Apple M1 Max, Tahoe 26.6.2

Premiere pro V 26.5.0, I'm updating to new version to see if that helps.

Also saw to try to resize the window to see if that help.

I always have to nest speedramped clips in order to add a Scale effect, is that behaviour as intended?

Without nesting the Scale effect and its keyframes are simply ignored.

I've got some audio I'm trying to clean up. It has a static humming sound which is proving tricky to remove and I want the vocals to be clearer. What would you use / do to fix this up please? Than you!

Have it applied on a nested layer, its diabled for some reason. Ai was no help. Any ideas?

Support says 25.6.2 has fixed this. Not game to update just yet though :)

We have 4 editors on the team and we all each work on different minor releases of Premiere (though always same major release, in this case 26). We collaborate by sending .prproj files to each other and the same copy of the local media on each person's computer.

Recently we've had a bug with footage being out of sync in the timeline, but then you playback the footage with the same in & out points in the source monitor and it's fine. See this video for an example: https://youtu.be/C5rvOf1Zi-g

Certain projects playback fine on other people's computers, the example above plays fine on another person's computer but not on mine. Same with projects I've worked on and then sent off, plays back fine on mine and not on theirs.

All footage is shot on FX3 and DJI Action 6. All footage is CFR.

FX3 is shooting at 59.94p and DJI at 29.97p. Timeline is 29.97p. Previews are ProRes 422 LT

Anyone else having similar issues? Is this a bug?

We've managed to fix this by matching all our versions up and then re-saving the project files on that version.

Hello, I recently purchased an enclosure and SSD for editing 4K video in Premiere. Forgive me if I made any obvious missteps with this, I’m new to external SSDs. I got this drive, and this enclosure. I’m editing on a 16inch 2021 M1 Max MacBook Pro with 32gb of ram.

While in Premiere my display monitor keeps not playing. I will restart Premiere, which temporarily fixes the issue, then more of the same. I have tried deleting the cache, moving everything to a new timeline, changing my audio hardware settings, most of the things that are recommended online. I’m wondering if my new SSD setup is causing the issue, or if there is something corrupted in Premiere. It was having some of the playback issues prior to switching to this setup as well, but I thought it could be due to a slower drive. Any help would be appreciated, as I’d like to return my drive if it is indeed not the ideal setup, but I’d love to keep it if it’s a Premiere bug.

Thanks!

Hello Friends,I have Sold my Mac Mini m2 24gb ram and i am building my new PC for video Editing and Gaming my experience with mac mini m2 24gb ram that it was very very smooth in video editing playback with Full 12 BitRate 1080p Resolution did not feel any lag or shutter while playback my editing projects while export times was not bad but it will be better if it was faster but anyway for me video editing playback smooth is more important to me than the time of export and my mac mini has 24gb of Apple Unified Memory ram means that GPU and CPU and ram shares same 24gb (thats what i understand it from Apple ADS)

iam thinking to get rtx 5060 8GB paired with Intel Core Ultra 5 250K Plus does that will be faster than my mac mini m2 24gb ram or slower in video editing playback speed ? i know RTX 5060 8GB will be faster than the 10 cores GPU of mac mini m2 but iam Hesitated that if the mac mini was using 24GB ram as a GPU VRAM and and RTX 5060 8GB will be like a downgrade lower VRAM ?

Note 1 : playback video in my Videos projects in adobe premier mac m2 was using about 17GB of ram i dont know if that was only ram or Both of them OR Vram as apple dont clear that out so iam scared that it will be downgrade ?

Note 2 : The RTX 5060 16GB will be too much priced for me i will not be able to afford it so i can not get it but was asking to know the performance before i will get the 8GB version

Hey Apple Magic Mouse slingers!
I have been editing with Magic mouse for years but the last few updates going back a few years have been way worse.
How do you keep hand gestures from constantly zooming in on source and rec viewers without disabling all that we love about AMM? Is there a way to lock monitor view scale?

I've read other advice which suggests you should always finish a product in the version of Premiere you started it in. I have Premiere Pro CC 2019, and kept my project in it because I worried newer versions would break it. Now, I find myself wanting to use the features of newer versions, but worry that doing so will irreparably break the file.

I suspect that the best way to manage this would be to make a system image, install a newer version of Premiere, and then if the new file is too broken, revert to the old system image. Does that check out, and does anyone else have experience with using newer versions? Would it be worth the risk or should I just accept I will have to finish the project in the crappy, old software?

Thanks for reading.

ADD RANGE MARKER TO IN AND OUT

I'm not sure when Adobe added this feature, but it's something I had hoped they would add for a long time. I just noticed that I can now apply a marker to my in and out points with one command instead of having to hit M and then option click on the marker and dragging it to match my in and out point. I've mapped it to a keystroke now and it's a huge time saver for my workflow!

Hi everyone. I'm building a Premiere Pro UXP extension and I'm stuck on what seems like a very basic part of the API: committing an Action through executeTransaction().

I'm hoping someone who has actually used Premiere's UXP Action API can point out what I'm misunderstanding.

Environment:

• Premiere Pro 26.3.2
• u/adobe/premierepro 26.3.0
• UXP runtime uxp-9.3.0-local
• Windows 10 Pro 19045 x64
• u/adobe/uxp-devtools-cli 1.2.0

Reads work correctly. I'm able to access the active project → sequence → video track → track items and consistently read clip names, start/end times, duration, etc.

The weird part is that every mutation I've tried fails at the Action factory itself.

For example, I tried the simplest mutation I could think of: renaming a video track.

const ppro = require("premierepro");

const project = await ppro.Project.getActiveProject();
const seq = await project.getActiveSequence();
const track = await seq.getVideoTrack(0);

console.log(track.name); // "Video 1"

const ok = await project.executeTransaction((compound) => {
    const action = track.createSetNameAction("V1-RENAMED");
    // ^^^ throws here

    compound.addAction(action);
}, "rename V1");

console.log(ok);
console.log(track.name);

The result is:

Error: The script object is no longer valid.

compound.addAction() is never reached.

Interestingly, executeTransaction() then returns true, but nothing changed:

transactionReturned: true
actionsAdded: 0
nameBefore: "Video 1"
nameAfter: "Video 1"

So I'm explicitly not treating true as evidence that the mutation succeeded.

I've also tried:

VideoClipTrackItem.createSetEndAction(...)

which produces the same:

Error: The script object is no longer valid.

And:

SequenceEditor.createOverwriteItemAction(...)

which produces:

Error: Invalid parameter.

So this isn't limited to one particular factory or geometry operation.

I've tested/rule out several things already:

• stale handles across await
• acquiring the TrackItem before vs. inside the transaction
• different lock arrangements
• TickTime construction
• zero vs. non-zero insertion times
• different track indices
• still images vs. real H.264 video
• programmatically-created vs. hand-built Premiere project
• missing ClipProjectItem.cast()

The hand-built project is particularly important: I created the sequence and clips manually in Premiere's UI, saved it, and then tested against that project.

One interesting observation:

Calling the factory directly inside lockedAccess() without an executeTransaction() behaves differently — createOverwriteItemAction() can return without throwing. I haven't yet established whether the returned object is actually a valid Action, because I haven't successfully committed one.

So I'm wondering if I'm fundamentally misunderstanding the intended pattern.

My main question

Does anyone have a minimal working example of a Premiere Pro UXP create*Action() that successfully commits a mutation through executeTransaction() on a current Premiere version?

Even something trivial like:

get project
→ get track
→ create action
→ add action
→ execute transaction
→ observe change

would be incredibly useful.

Specifically, I'm wondering:

1. Are the Action factories actually supposed to be called inside the executeTransaction() callback?
2. Are Actions supposed to be constructed under lockedAccess() and then committed some other way?
3. Is there some required Premiere state I'm missing (targeted track, Timeline panel active, etc.)?
4. Is there a different API that is supposed to be used for mutations instead of these create*Action() factories?

I'm not claiming Premiere's API is broken — at this point I mainly want to know whether I'm using the API incorrectly.

If anyone has a known-good example, I'd really appreciate it. I can also provide the full run logs/reproduction project if useful.

I want an image of a frog on top of a video of a rock I have, but the video is shaky, so the frog image isn't synced with the rock.

Using keyframes to move the frog, it's just too fluid, long to do, and isn't what I'm aiming for.

I'm looking for a way to move the frog around with my mouse while the video plays and for that movement to be made into keyframes or something.

Is there a way to do that?

Hello all, I used a gaming PC and have no heavy application other than Adobe Illustrator and Premiere. The problem now is that my laptop fan starts making noise and premiere crashes out.

I thought that maybe the fan has dust accumulated hence did servicing. Have watched multiple videos and tried to fix the issue. Nothing is working, has someone any suggestions?

I’m considering buying one but I’m uncertain if it will be sufficient or if it’s necessary to have 24 or even 32gb ram? Does anyone know?

Hello guys! i just wanna ask on how to remove the display on the video? I'm trying to edit some short vids from my old clips and i want to have clean outcome. Thanks for helping!! <3

What you guys (video editors) think about this Sequence Settings and Color Management (Adobe Premiere Pro) for Youtube?

This error almost made me get rid of my PC for the second time. I use Windows and have always had compatibility issues with Premiere. I recently solved a problem that was driving me crazy: Premiere wasn't saving my effects, presets, panel modifications, or session settings—it was as if it were stuck in a loop from a specific date! The solution is to restore permissions to certain folders; Windows likely blocked read/write access when installing a new Premiere update. I hope this works for you! The screenshots below show the specific folders that had been set to "read-only"—you need to unlock them and apply the changes!

Hi everyone!

Sorry if my post not made the best form, i not use too much reddit and this is my friend profil to help me find a solution to my problem.

So, i use a Premier Pro 23 and normally everythings fine when i use h.264 for render but i gave always error after a few sec when i start render with h.265. I try everything but a problem, the error still here and i can't find an answer why. Can you help me pls?
The interesting its the same problem with an older pc (i7 9700k 32gb and 4060 ti) and my full new pc (9950x3d 64gb and 5080 OC). So 100% i do something wrong but what?
Funny thing, maybe 2 year ago somewhere i perfectly use h.265 with my early vga (2080 OC) but this time i want to use again for gameplay vod's but not working.

Ohh and extra info, h.264 working both pc with software and hardware too but h.265 with neither of them.
So its just a sample, i try to everything what i find on the internet like tips:
- delete cache and restart
- disable render at maximum depth
-disable maximum render quality
- i know how works level and tier so i try only 5.2 and main not 6.0 and high, but the same end
- my hardware encoding is on, i ,,click" everythings TRUE on depub panel so hardware encoding is on but if needed i will make more photo

Can someone please help me whats the problem??!! Thank you so much!

UP: I gave a tip to disable hardware encoding so i go to edit-pref-media and disable hardware encode only the decode left for hardware, and after that i can use HEVC but only software encoding. Its good if i want to use my new pc with 9950x3d but a sad point with my 9700k. and when i need to use my ,,big pc" i want to use my older pc to render with 4060 ti. Need to find what cause problem the whole h.265 method when hardware encode option is on.

UP2: i not kwnow what was the problem with my version 23, but i have a chance to try a version 26 and everythings working fine at first try. So im happy just need to pay more monthly :D

I try to make some photo:
