Specific to Premiere Elements Version 12.
by mikecox » Sat May 31, 2014 10:29 pm
I am preparing to upgrade my computer; purchased a SSD, 2 GB of memory and Win8. I'm also considering a CPU upgrade and maybe even a MB. But before I get to that I was wondering if I could create another profile and remove all the services I don't need while using PrE. I thought maybe I could free up enough resources to improve processing speeds. So I posted that question to a computer user forum and got this response; If the movie software has a command-line utility then you could shut-down everything except windows then load that utility. Do your build of the movie from within the utility and you'd save tons of memory.
but I don't have a clue what he's talking about. Is there such an option in PrE?

No. There isn't.

As many of you know, I regularly use a program called Advanced System Care, free software for tuning up your computer that I love and some people hate. http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.htmlThe program includes a package of very nifty side-programs, including one called Turbo Boost, which does what you're asking about, Mike. Turning on and off Turbo Boost mode is as simple as toggling a switch. Might be worth experimenting with.

Now that's what I call an honorable attitude.

I'm usually suspicious of programs that claim to "speed up your computer" and do other miraculous things, but since since you have tried it, and like it; and PC Magazine likes it, I'll give it a try and see what happens. The bottom line is that I just have to upgrade this machine; or get a new one! When I bought this one I made a point of telling Dell how I was going to use it; turns out I should have done my own research! I usually do; but, for some reason, I got lazy! Thanks for following up on this question Steve. btw I was studying the "PrE" manual yesterday, watched your video on Lynda last night again, and went to bed with your book. I'm struggling with "ripple". I have created a 5 minute monster with 6 tracks of clips and a couple unlinked sound tracks. But I found a new clip that I want to insert and the "ripple" effect is making be crazy This morning I'm taking another stab at it; I just have to keep the Alt and Ctrl options straight At the rate I'm going I will meet my maker before I finish this project! I'm only on day 1 of this project and there are 15 to go! It's hard to believe much time it has taken to create just 5" of video!

As with anything new, there is always a learning curve. Some are longer than others. After a while it will become second nature and you will fly along.

Ripple gets a bit trickier in version 12, FWIW, Mike.
Only the Video 1/Audio 1 tracks truly ripple. The other tracks (especially upper video and audio tracks) won't ripple as you add and remove video from them.
Additions and deletions to Video/Audio 1, however, should ripple your entire timeline. Unless you hold down the Ctrl/Cmd key to override it, of course.
As Peru says, don't panic. It will become second nature soon.

Yes, that works for me. I've also saved the project as "trial and error"; then jumped in. If I blow it I can always open the project file again.

Yes, so I have been discovering /-: The other tracks (especially upper video and audio tracks) won't ripple as you add and remove video from them.
I've notice the delete and close gap option is often greyed out. Haven't quite figured out when that happens; or why. Additions and deletions to Video/Audio 1, however, should ripple your entire timeline. Unless you hold down the Ctrl/Cmd key to override it, of course.
Yes, I've tried using the Ctrl key with deletes; little by little I find I can anticipate what is going to happen. btw I like the Turbo app, especially since it lets me pick and choose what I want to disable. It does seem to make a difference!

If there is a gap in the video, but there is audio within that gap, it will be grayed out.

Yep. A gap is only a "true" gap is there is no audio or video in the gap on any of your video or audio tracks.

Ah,I will keep that in mind in the future. I have unlinked the audio on most of my clips so I can breakup and reposition the audio tracks; so, for me, that is a signification tip. Thanks
