Video Playback Error

Specific to Premiere Elements version 14

Video Playback Error

Postby brie » Tue Oct 11, 2016 4:43 pm

Hello Everybody :meet:

I have a problem w/ the video playback when I edit on PRE VERSION 14, the frames freeze, and what's working perfectly is the AUDIO & the CURSOR on the timeline.

I have a ASUS WINDOWS 10 w/ compatible specs for the software. I've been having this problem every since I've got it. I've RENDERED my edited videos on the timeline. PLEASE HELP SOMEBODY!!!!!!
All I want to do is view my videos before I start a YOUTUBE CHANNEL. I'm doing practice videos to work on my equipment, before I make an Official Video. You know, just testing the stuff out and software is only thing stopping me.

I know there's a solution out there, its just most people don't have that problem.....I THINK :conf:

It would help to know the specs of the machine and the project so someone can make an informed opinion.

I agree. Let's get all the details we can.

Which processor does your computer have and with how much RAM? What graphics card do you have, if any?

What model of camcorder is your video coming from and what is the video's format and resolution?

How long is your project? If you look under the Edit menu in Premiere Elements, what is listed under Project Settings?

When you added the first clip to your timeline, did you see a yellow-orange "render" line above this clip (before you added transitions or effects to it)? If your project settings are matched to your video specs, you will NOT see this render line until you add effects to this clip.

Well, I can already see a couple of definite issues.

Your processor is a Pentium N3700, which benchmarks on this site as 1896.
http://www.cpubenchmark.net/midlow_range_cpus.html

In my books, I recommend a processor that rates at least 5000-6000 for running Premiere Elements -- and 8000-10000 for editing 4K. So you're way underpowered.

In addition, your project isn't properly set up. You're editing 4K video, but your project is set up for editing 1920x1080 HD. I'm not sure why your project didn't set up automatically to match your video specs. It should do that if the first clip on your Video 1 track is your 4K video. Is that not the case?

In any event, when the project settings don't match the video specs, the program can not operate efficiently -- so that's also contributing to your playback issues.

So I'm not sure what to recommend. That Pentium is just way underpowered for the work you're trying to do, and I think it's going to lead to constant frustration.

You may want to check out the free trial of CyberLink PowerDirector. PowerDirector uses proxy editing to handle these extremely high resolution video files, so you may get better performance all around from it. It's certainly worth a try.

Brie, Are you recording at 4K or something else, I don't think you ever really said.

It would be great to know what graphics card/adapter you have installed also but I agree with Steve, your processor and RAM is way under what is needed to run a video editing program like Premiere Elements, sorry :(

Why not use Live Movie Maker that comes free with Windows 10?
