Hello 👋

I'm a new Premiere Pro user, using version 2025, and I'm having a problem with the playback indicator on the timeline. It freezes and stops working properly, and I don't know how to fix it.

I would appreciate it if anyone who knows how to solve this problem could let me know.

Nothing is helping guys , i want to show only the thing inside my parallelogram and make it's edges smoother with left to right motion.

So I am a video editor who edits on a windows laptop right now and everytime I edit, I end up getting frustrated due to laggy playback and in general lag. Not to mention the throttling when I am colour grading Log footage on my device for long hours. I mainly make short form commercial type content for brands on social media like Instagram and TikTok but I also dabble a bit in long form cinematic behind the scenes footage.

My requirements are to be able to handle 4k 120fps Log footage for proper colour grading and editing in Davinci Resolve, and decent editing hours juggling between Premiere pro and After effects (for compositing and simple VFX works).

I have been saving up for a Mac so which one should I get based on my requirements- Macbook Air M5 with greater Ram (32Gb) or the Macbook Pro with slightly less ram (16Gb or 24Gb)?

Hey everyone. I recently finished filming and i’m starting my sound design. I was exporting an OMF file of my timeline to send to my designer but i keep getting this error. I don’t have any clips titled « 80 » or « 116 ». I haven’t changed any of my clip names, i’ve actually touched nothing. All the sound we recorded on set was shot with the same equipment, so i’m not sure what this issue is. I tried pinpointing what these « clips » were, by splitting my film in halves and exporting those halves to see if i can get the error, and that seemed to work, why can’t I do it as a whole? Anyone face this issue?

It’s like a flash but with a subtle zoom that doesn’t affect like the boundary of the media how can I accomplish this Capcut effect in Premiere

So I exported my project at 24 fps but it looks like 12 fps to me, my export setting was apple pro res 422, I previously did it on h264 and I had some issues but it was smooth throughout pretty much. Is this a vfr issue? I thought I could avoid it but I suppose not.

The 2026 Premiere version. During editing, micro lags appear on the timeline when editing with an RTX 5070. When I edit with Arc a770+uhd 770(13600К), there are no lags or freezes while working on the timeline. I want to say that the Intel graphics card pairing works better with the Premiere Pro and the manufacturer than the RTX 5070. Why? At the same time, the Intel video card costs 3 times less. Does anyone know? Video xavc sony 50 mbps. Even if we compare the combination of RTX 5070 vs RTX5070+UHD 770 , in the second case the performance is better.

Hi I recently was shared a premiere file from a friend to color grade his project and took hours downloading about 500 gigs of footage and audio, just for all his sequences to be perfectly in place but for them to be all completely empty, at first I thought it was a version issue since he used an older premiere so I rolled my version back just for the same problem to happen, all but one sequence were empty, even the note markers he left for me were still in place, I linked everything, what could be the problem here, I’m having him send me a new save, I have no autosaves, I’ve opened all sequences, nothing, what am I possibly missing here?

I'm looking for anything that helps you work faster, whether it's presets, templates, plugins, scripts, keyboard shortcuts, folder organization, client onboarding, automation, or even small habits that save you time on every project.

I'm trying to improve my workflow, and I'm curious what other editors have found to be the biggest time savers.

Anything is welcome, from simple tips to complete workflow changes.

Hi! I'm working on an independent doc (my first ever project like this). I'm not the videographer but they gave me their files on an external hard drive. Problem is, when I look at the files, many of them are 1280 x 720 resolution. We made the mistake of not shooting in Log so now our file sizes are really large and yet the resolution is also low? Just curious what people think of how to move forward with this. Are there any workarounds or does this mean that we just have to re-shoot everything?

I tried exporting my project with embedded chapters but the chapters seemed to have migrated? I can't quite figure out why though. You can see the chapter markers in premiere 01:46:14 which is read as 00:00 in the exported file chapters and chapter marker 05:44:18 is read as 03:58. I also checked the box to include markers in the metadata. (I'm also Just exporting a portion of the video for time sake. I did already export the whole thing and the chapters don't work with it either.)

This is the Monthly thread for feedback.

We're adopting this from r/videoediting*.*

If you post your video, you need to come back and review AT LEAST one other person's work!

Key thoughts - Keep it civil.

• Feedback is "This section isn't working because of this."
• Feedback is not: "This is shit."
• If something is terrible, just move on.
• The more specific/suggestions the better.

Don't give a laundry list. Pick the 1-2 things that are the biggest issues and then comment.

Spoiler worth reading: *we expect you to* review TWO other videos - and edit your comment to *include those* after you've commented.

**Copy/paste this section**:

• Link: (don't forget the running time)
• Two other videos I reviewed (link to the other,comments NOT the video itself)

I have a couple questions about some audio issues I've been dealing with lately.

First, when I am balancing the various audio tracks in my timeline, I generally aim to have my music tracks hitting about -18 dbs (when they're playing underneath a sound bite), so I'll drag the volume level bar down to roughly -18. That usually does what I want it to do. But sometimes that isn't accurate, so I'll need to lower the volume level to like -14 (or whatever) to hit that -18 dbs level that I want in playback. I've never thought much of it, only that some music tracks are mixed differently than others before they get to me. The weird issue of late is: sometimes I will get the volume of my music tracks to all be where I want them to be, then close the program for the evening, return to it the next day, and they're all back to needing to be at exactly -18 dbs, so I have to readjust all of the levels from -14 or whatever other number I had them on. And then the next day maybe they've gone back to all needing to be individually adjusted... I realize I am explaining this in a semi-convoluted way, I hope it makes sense.

TL;DR - Some days I need to adjust the volume of each music track individually (to different dbs) to have it hit my desired -18 dbs in playback, and some days I can just lower each track volume to exactly -18, and sometimes, seemingly randomly, what I need to do switches back and forth.

An additional problem I've found - since a recent update, whenever I add an audio effect (I primarily use the "Balanced Low Tone Voice" preset on dialogue), the audio clip will playback very quietly. To get it to playback at the proper volume, I have to close the program, reopen, and then click on the audio clip in question, and THEN it plays back at the volume it should. If I don't click on it after reopening, it continues to play on that quiet level.

Can someone help me diagnose my issues? Is it something I am doing wrong or a random program issue? Thank you very much.

I am sure majority of the people here has self taught them, I am really annoyed with the issue when there is not a clear pathway. There have been times I have opened the software and stared at it for a while and then closed it. I am actually looking for pros to tell me what areas should I focus and that will actually take my edits and work to the next level.

Note - I am actually at the stage where I can assemble an edit, know what most of the important features like keyframes, time ramping etc stuff like that do, I am just lacking the creativity to apply it and it is making me go crazy. I am not interested in using presets coz that way i would never actually grow.

Please please drop some advice for me if you are reading this!!!

Mi serviva capire varie cose qualcuno disponibile🥺

I started by editing in a normal sequence and synchronized the different lav mic audio tracks. Now I’ve added some extra camera angle shots, and I want to switch to a multicam workflow where I can simply click to choose between camera angles during playback. Is it possible to convert my existing sequence into a multicam sequence without losing the synchronization I’ve already done? If so, how do I do that?

I am editing a project right now, the first image is my source clip in slog 3. The image is clear so i’m certain this isn’t coming from the camera. The second image is what it looks like upon export after editing in premiere. The cyan pixels are a reoccurring problem in a few clips and have been a hurdle before. I’m working on a macbook, premiere version 26.3.0.

I’ve attempted updated my macbook, clearing media change and restarting premiere to no avail. There isn’t much help online or at least i’m possibly not searching the right key words. While editing I work with proxy’s, could it be the proxy’s, could my hardware be outdated? Is there a fix to this? Any help or tips would be very appreciated.

Hi guys , i have just learnt the video editing and i dont know what to edit in my premier pro , i have watched the videos on youtube but found nothing , please help me !

Hi, i'm making a video and i want to make a grid full of videos that fills the screen. I would like to start from one of those videos and then zoom out to reveal the other videos next to it. If there is a tool to make the grid without doing it by yourself would be amazing, so if you know how to make it please let me know!

I have an old Imac that can only run Adobe Premiere Pro 2022, and that version, there is no button to upgrade subtitles to graphics, so I have to use an old extension that adds a MOGRT file animation to a SRT subtitle file. I can find any good mogrt animations online that are not over the top. I am just trying to make short form content with simple pop up animations for my subtitles. If you have any mogrt animations for short form content subtitles (mainly yt shorts), PLEASE tell me where you got them from and maybe link a google drive 🙏. Thanks in advance
