Specific to Premiere Elements version 15
by sadddletree » Wed Jan 18, 2017 9:45 pm
Had to upgrade to 15 since the menu program in 13 is broken and no one knows how to fix it. So far the one in 15 seems to be working.
However, they changed things!!!!! In the export and share, what is the equivalent of the YouTube Widescreen HD setting. I don't want to upload to YouTube now but that setting was the one that looked the best at a lower total size, but I can't find it in 15...
Thanks

If you're talking about creating an MP4 for upload to YouTube, use Export & Share/Devices/Computer/1920x1080 with the MP4 preset.

Thanks. This will eventually be burned to a DVD but that setting makes it too large for a single DVD. If I bump it down to a low quality it will easily fit.
What do you recommend for things that will eventually be burned to DVDs?

I found the AVCHD tab under DVD. If I check the fit to available space option it compresses it from 9.63 GB to the 4.37 required. Is this too much compression for it to look decent? Doesn't have to be fancy for this one. (Different project than our main one.)
The Youtube widescreen HD format in 13 makes the file about 3.97 GB.

Just so you know, an AVCHD DVD is NOT a DVD. It's actually a BluRay video file -- but a BluRay burned to a DVD disc. It WON'T play on a BluRay player.
That said, I'm not sure what you mean when you say you want to output an MP4 with plans to use it to create a DVD.
A DVD file, just like a BluRay file, is a specific structure of files in a specific video format. If you just put an MP4 on a disc, it won't play in an DVD or BluRay player (unless you have a special disc player designed to play MP4s).
To create a DVD or BluRay, you should use the specific output presets under Export & Share/Disc.

Thanks for your information. Still learning about these formats - what they are and what they do. This is helpful.
So is 9.63 GB compressed by the program to fit on a regular DVD still going to be acceptable viewing (not commercial level) or is that too much to see well?
Thanks.

I'm not sure where you're getting that 9.63 gb number -- but if you're talking about your source video, the size of your original videos are meaningless. They're going to be transcoded to DVD or BluRay video.
Just use the rule of thumb we include in the book: * A standard DVD can hold about 80 minutes of standard definition Premiere Elements video. A dual-layer DVD can hold about twice that. * A standard BluRay can hold about 120 minutes of high-def video. A dual layer BluRay can hold about twice that.

The 9.63 comes when I open the AVCHD window. It says that space required is 9.63 GB. When I click the "Fit contents to available space" box it goes to 4.37 GB. So I assume the program somehow compresses the 9.63 to 4.37 by reducing quality somehow? So will it still be OK or is that too much compression? (This is less than 73 minutes but filmed at a higher quality.)

If you select the AVCHD option -- which burns BluRay files to a DVD disc -- you can only fit about 20 minutes of video on your disc.
