What Customers Say About Adobe Premiere Elements 7 [OLD VERSION]:

For some stupid reason, Premiere Elements can't burn a Blu-ray to a folder or disc image.I also experience frequent glitches when Premiere Elements imports from HDV tape. After six hours of rendering, the process aborts with "fatal error." If I burn to DVD, it doesn't track properly in my DVD player. They take three days to respond with stupid suggestions like uninstall and reinstall Premiere Elements. Every version has bugs that cause me to waste hours of time. If you haven't invested the time to learn this software, avoid it at all costs. Fortunately for DVD, Premiere Elements can burn to a folder, then I can use a reliable program like Roxio to burn a DVD.

What good will it do the reinstall the same buggy software.I wish I could find something else to edit video on the PC, but I've invested a lot of time learning how to use this software. I've used Premiere Elements versions 1, 2,4 and now 7. Adobe software seems particularly poor at interfacing with hardware.I have two 2-hour movies which Premiere Elements cannot burn to Blu-ray. I often have to import tapes several times to get a glitch-free copy.I can make a Blu-ray by exporting to MPEG and using Roxio to author the disc.Adobe support is utterly useless.

I don't like to advertise, but if you want something easy and runs smoothly, Magix works decent. If you have a Mac, you should know to stick with FinalCut. Also video playback is very unreliable, it never plays the whole piece, just the audio runs and it stays at a certain picture of a scene most times. But as soon as I try to edit more of my project or video it will do the same thing. Every time Premiere runs it freezes and goes into a white screen. I have a Sony Vaio VGN-FW170J that runs on 4gb RAM and 2.26 GHz Processor. If I wait for at least five minutes it will come back. I recommend saving your money and purchase something else.

I do not recommend this hopefully version 8 is better. Codec issues up the wahzu.Overall its a chore to edit now you can do almost everything quick and easy but to finalize, burn it, save it replay it then you have a nightmare. Audio is skipping on less you rendered which is surprising, I did not have to do that for version 3 or 4.4. Well I needed to edit HD video that I shoot with my Canon VIXIA HF100. To do a little more you have to subscribe to a subscription (themes, certain effects etc).3. So there were no programs installed except what came with the PC when I bought it.

This is a DELL XPS 420.5. After using Premiere Elements 7 I have come to dislike Adobe. Crashes (running on Vista)2. Always get the low resources message: hmm this is a quad core, 500gb, 3gb of RAM now at first thought it was some other things installed on my PC that is taking up the resources. I am in the works to going to Mac. Hey I have been editing with Adobe products for a long time since Adobe Premiere Elements 3 and with Adobe Premiere as well.

My elements 3 is way better here are my reason for a crappy Elements 7.1. But I had the same issue when I installed this program on my machine when I first got it last year or so.

Adobe PhotoShop Elements 7 does what it says it will do; not so with Premiere Elements 7.I purchased this software because I created a slideshow in PhotoShop Elements for my mother's 90th birthday party but could not burn it onto a DVD; one could do that (theoretically) only using Premiere Elements, and that's why I went ahead and purchased it.After several hours spent attempting to a burn a DVD of the slideshow and having all attempts thwarted ~ low memory messages; "Error compiling movie, out of memory"; "Adobe PRE7 encountered a problem and needs to close" (that happened 49 seconds before the end of the burn); and the very frequent "TRANSCODING ERROR".Just what the heck is a "transcoding error" any way. Adobe creators of this program need to hang their heads in shame.

I wasted all that time and money attempting to use PRE7. I cleaned up my brand new computer, turned off the screen saver, etc.

I uninstalled the program and re-installed the program. What I ended up doing is going back to PhotoShop Elements 7 and creating a video CD of the slideshow, and, luckily, it plays in all of my DVD players.

I should have heeded the other reviews, but, NOOOOOOOO, I just knew my experience would be different. I'm not alone in encountering these problems, as evidenced by going through various message boards.

I even tried creating the entire slideshow using Premiere Elements.

As a MAC user, (which is why I have older PC hardware), I have significant iMovie/iDVD experience. It also has an iMovie-ish Sceneline editor as well.It is also nice to be able to use video from any device, burn a blue-ray disc (not an option for Macs at this point) and do video composite work.

As a result I could not install this product on my machine. If I were editing on a PC, this would be my choice.I originally wanted to review this product from experience, but all I can give you is my impressions of it.

The video overlays, titles, effects, and transitions look amazing. This is also noted on the box.

I can say this this is the best choice for inexpensive, yet powerful video editing on a PC. Looking at Elements from this perspective, I can say that it is nice to see a Timeline view for editing in Elements.

When I tried to install it on my custom-built PC from 2005 (AMD Athlon XP 3200+) the installer disc stated that my computer does not support SSE2 instruction sets.
