iPhone project settings?

[don731]

Any suggestions on the best project settings for video shot with an iPhone 5S? Files are 1920 X 1080 H.264 codec, and have .mov extension.

Thanks!

From a new project, just add the file to your media in Prel using Add Media > Files and Folders, drop it in the timeline, and let PrEl automatically choose the settings. You can also drag and drop directly from a folder to the timeline. Or with your phone connected to your computer you can browse your phone contents by going to Add Media > Videos from Flip or Cameras. Select (checkmark) the file(s) you want, give it a name and save location, and click Get Media.

Sometimes Premiere Elements does have trouble reading the specs of MOV files and setting up its project accordingly. So, once you've added the video to your project and place a clip on your timeline, go to Edit/Project Settings and ensure the program has set up correctly.
