When you right click a clip and create proxies, Premiere should be smart enough to recommend a good proxy codec and resolution every time, by default. The current default is 1024x540 H.264 proxies which makes zero sense. The average user is working with 16x9 footage which means that their proxies will be stretched after encoding unless they catch it.

A better default would be 1280x720 Prores Proxy clips, but it would be even better if Premiere was smart enough to dynamically change resolutions to match the footage.

This seems pretty simple technically speaking, it's amazing to me that the software wasn't set up this way when proxies were released in the first place!

Please excuse my terminology as I am still new to Premiere Pro. I'm using Premiere 14.2.0 (Build 47)

This isn't an idea but is a problem I am having with my Adobe Premiere Pro. I've been searching online to try and find a solution; however, I cannot find anything.

When I create a new project in Premiere, the user interface works fine. I'm able to use everything normally; however, after importing the 7th item to the project, the user interface will not work as it should.

For example, I can use the blue timeline scroller by clicking and dragging it along my video; however, once the 7th item is imported, I cannot scrub through the timeline with the blue bar. There are many other parts of Premiere that this affects.

Each time I delete the 7th item, the interface returns to normal.

I have no idea what's causing this issue and it's very frustrating.

I've tried resetting the preferences, restarting my computer, and uninstalling and reinstalling Premiere.

Please help me solve this mysterious issue!

I’m writing to remind the developers at Adobe that many professionals who use their applications are low vision. I would love to see Adobe take this into account and find ways to make their user interfaces adjustable for those of us who cannot see as well as we would like.

To wit: I have been especially frustrated with Premiere Pro 2020 (on a Mac), because I cannot change the color or size of the font used in the UI (it is currently tiny and pale gray, rather than brighter, easier to read white), nor can I change the “theme” of the background so that instead of being grey with pale gray lettering, it is what low vision people need: white background, with black fonts. Dark backgrounds with tiny grey fonts are historically difficult even for people with normal vision. For anyone with cataracts or many other ophthalmic afflictions, it is quite exhausting to decipher the commands and menu items on the Premiere Pro screen.

While users can adjust their monitor settings for larger resolutions, this is not at all an ideal arrangement because many professionals have several applications open on a monitor at once, and click back and forth between them. When the others are perfectly sized, it is not helpful to have to make a whole-screen adjustment just to be able to read the tiny print in the Adobe Premiere Pro windows. Please address this issue in your applications, and serve your low vision clients. Thanks.

If there is a specific reason for sorting files by the first numeral, that’s fine. But at least give the rest of us the ability to sort by Logical Numerical order [As found in the List View].

Current behavior:
1
11
2
2015
2016
24
3-4-20
3-5-20
8-18

Expected behavior [In List View & Project View]:
1
2
3-4-20
3-5-20
8-18
11
24
2015
2016

This will keep my Daily video captures at the top of the window, above my Yearly Folders, and I won’t have to scroll to a different spot in the middle of the view every time the month [First numeral] changes.

Optional solution:
Implement a similar Sort Icons [as found in Project Panel] button for Media Browser.
