Photoshop Elements :: Creating WMV From Slideshow In Organizer (11)?
Mar 22, 2014
When creating .WMV from a slideshow in Organizer (11), the photographs aren't showing up. They seem fine in the slideshow, but when I output to .WMV I get the audio but not the pics. I have done this many times before and it has worked fine, not sure why it isn't working now.
I am trying to take these to Premier Elements to create a DVD with menus. If I take the slideshow/project, rather than a .WMV, it tells me it doesn't like .jpg and I get some black frames. In the past, if I created .WMVs.
I've just upgraded to PSE12 and it works fine in most instances. Howver when I try to create a slideshow from a selection of photos it simply stops working and then crashes. Is this a common occurrence?
I have a Dell XPS 8500 with i7 3rd gen processor, 32 gb memory, 2 tb hard drive, AMD radeon 7800 video card, Windows 8, 64 bit. half way through the creation process the program stops and closes, after the first time losing everything I started saving the project every few minutes but it continues to crash. my PC is 2 months old and the drivers are up to date, what gives?
I am creating my first slideshow from Photoshop Elements 10 and get the error message that the proper codec is not installed. I have already converted the original .m4a file to .mp3, and that .mp3 file will play in Windows Media Player. But I cannot add it to my show.
I am using Photoshop Elements 10, and in Organiser I am creating a photo slide show, but when I come to burn the slideshow to a DVD, Help seems to indicate that I can only burn the slideshow using the Premier edition.
It seems pretty simple to just select a few pictures from the organizer, select create, select slideshow. A box comes up asking my preferences and when I say OK, the program freezes.
once I click OK, my program freezes up... I can still use other programs on my computer. photoshop elements 10 freezes when creating slideshow from album.
By relaunching Organizer, I mean close Elements Organizer and Editor if they are open > Delete both the files I mentioned earlier > NOw open the organizer again. Attach the screenshot of the preferences dialog that comes up when you go for creating slideshow?
Is it possible to make a new folder inside organizer? Rather than having to make the folders in Finder(OSX)/my Computer (win) and then import them....?
It is a pity the dialog of the 'reconnect missing files' can list the missing files in a small window, but there is no option to export the list with full paths as a text file.
Knowing that the list is saved somewhere (probably in the catalog folder) I have searched if I could find how the information about missing files is stored in the Organizer. Natural candidates like the catalog.psexxdb and thumbs.5.cache sqlite databases did not show anything showing they stored the information.
So, I had a look at the thumbs.5.cache, which is interesting. It shows that two sizes of thumbnails are stored there, and that the criteria for matching are date taken and file size.
Now, I compared an optimized version of that file with a reconstructed one (I deleted the cache file). Interestingly, you can see which media_id still have the matching criteria. I conclude that the other media_id are the missing files...
If Photodrawken is looking at this post : Could you check this supposition and see if a sqlite query could extract the list of the missing media?
It will be interesting to see if the next PSE version has a better handling of missing files... Seems that LR handles that problem much better.
Edit: The 'status' field in the thumbnail_info_table of the thumbs.5.cache database seems to be set at '2' for missing files.
1. Elements 11 Organizer often creates multiple copies of the same picture. How can I stop this?
2. Many pictures has a small questionmark in the upper left corner, stating that the file is missing, even though I can see the picture (a bit blurred, but still). What's wrong?
My ability to share photos using attach to e-mail has stopped working. I get an error message: Organizer could not finish creating e-mail message. Make sure Microsoft is selected as the default program in Windows INternet Control panel. Additionally, I'm upable to check for updates. I get an error message something like "the server is not available..."
How do I transfer the entire organizer of Elements 9 to the empty organizer in Elements 12? By the way, Elements 9 is so defective, it will not even let me back up my organizer in 9. The 9 organizer would let me select a photo, bring it into the editor, print it and then it would crash... then I had to start all over again... the darn thing crashes as it was prone to problems that adobe ignored. Is it better to just re-load all the photos from a fresh folder that is on my desktop? There are 5,000 !
I'm using PE9. Every time I go to the Organizer (even after switching to another program briefly) the Update box appears, searching Watched Folders for new pics. It always finds them, frequently the same, imports them and then tells me they're already in the Organizer. During this process, which may last 5-15 minutes, I can't use the program.
I have created a couple of collections but when I go into slide show the images are not visible for creating a slide show. Works ok with some collections but not all. Presumably there is a linkage problem. Using v4.4 on a Mac.
I have Photoshop Elements 4.0, and am getting started moving around and playing with the program.
I have compiled and saved a slideshow with audio, and am pleased with the outcome, HOWEVER........when I try to record it to a DVD it won't allow it (says wrong media) and will only let me record to a CD-R. (Yes....it's a DVD recorder) Afterwards, the CD-R won't play on my DVD player.
I received a copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 with a Epson Scanner. I want to make a basic DVD slide show (interactive) that can be viewed on a TV. I do not need audio or any other options.
The program said I would have to upgrade to Adobe Premier Element to do that, but when I checked the specs on Adobe Premier Elements 11, It did not give any indication that I could do that.Everything appeared to be for video and adding a multitude of options (that I do not want or need). What do I need to make a basic DVD slide show for TV?
I am trying to add an mp3 purchased from Amazon to a slide show. I'm getting a message that I don't have a compressor / decompressor? how to add music?
Have P E 5. Wish to create and display slide shows on HDTV. Have created a show, but just learned that my version cannot burn the show to DVD. Are there other options? Does the latest version 10 have this feature?
I am trying to add music to my slide show and I get this error: The selected file cannot be played because your system does not have the required compressor/decompressor (codec) installed. I went to the Adobe site and downloaded a codec program, and restarted but still got the same error.
I have PSE 11. I created a slideshow and output it to a CD for a VCD. My TV, 2 years old, wont recognise the format. How do I get a CD or DVD that will play my slide show on TV?
I tried many times to output a slideshow to DVD on PSE 8, and it crashed. A message will say that it has stopped working. Possibly could I solve the problem by re-installing PSE 8? If so, do I need to uninstall first? And any chance of getting media catalog or saved albums?
