Request for Essential Graphics Text Tool
It is wonderful to be able to gradation the color of letters!
Thank you very much! !! Very glad! !! All Japanese users are happy!

As a request for further creative creation ...
・ We want a gradation function for the border.
・ We also want a gradation function for shadows.
-Multiple boundaries can be used. We want you to be able to use multiple shadows as well.

Especially in the Japanese video industry, multiple boundaries and their gradations are really used a lot. Hopefully at this time, we hope for further evolution!
Thank you!

文字の色をグラデーションできるようになったことはとても素晴らしい！
本当にありがとう！！とてもうれしい！！日本のユーザーはみんな喜んでいます！

さらなるクリエイティブの創造のためのリクエストとして・・・
・境界線にもグラデーション機能が欲しい。
・シャドウにもグラデーション機能が欲しい。
・境界線は複数使用することができる。同じようにシャドウも複数使用できるようになって欲しい。

特に日本の映像業界では、複数の境界線、それらのグラデーションは本当に多く使われています。できればこのタイミングで、さらなる進化を望みます！
よろしくお願いします！

When you are "seeking," (which means QUICKLY looking through a long video by clicking and dragging the playhead with the cursor,) there is sometimes very high "prefetch latency," meaning that frames will load slowly, resulting in very few frames being shown. This can make it very difficult to find what you're looking for.

But when seeking, perfect frame accuracy is not nearly as important as seeing what you're doing. Therefore, to reduce the "prefetch latency," I suggest that the nearest I-frame is loaded and displayed FIRST, (because I-frames are always the fastest to load) while the exact B or P frame is still being slowly decoded. As soon as it's decoded, it can be displayed, replacing the displayed I-frame.

If the user is seeking quickly, there might not be enough time to load the P and B frames before the user has already moved the playhead nearer to another I-frame. This is fine! The I-frames should always take priority.

In VLC, there is a similar feature called "fast seek."

Combined with my "ghost playhead" feature suggestion, it would be made clear to the user exactly what is going on. (Linked below)

However, it would probably be important for fast seeking to be optional, and perhaps even off by default, as it may confuse some users.

NOTE: This works best if only ONE video source is visible. With more than one video on the timeline, the I-frames will probably not be in the same spots. Nevertheless, it COULD still work, but there would have to be multiple ghost playheads. This might be too difficult to code, and confusing and frustrating for users, who won't understand why premiere is showing video frames out of lockstep, especially in cases where one video has high prefetch latency, and the other is low.

The new Universal Text Engine is amazing, works 99% of the time. However I spotted is not displaying pauses/breaks in Quranic verses in certain fonts. Noorehuda is a font that supports these characters online but in Premiere they don't show up. Only in the default font it does appear correctly, but it isn't appearing in several arabic fonts we use.

If you can fix this bug it would be greatly appreciated! It's so close to perfect already but we cannot use it unless all the characters can be displayed in the noorehuda font.

Quran arabic text for your reference:

ذٰلِکَ الۡفَضۡلُ مِنَ اللّٰہِ ؕ وَ کَفٰی بِاللّٰہِ عَلِیۡمًا ﴿٪۷۱﴾

Thank you in advance.

If Legacy title tool is going away, please add it's functionality to the essential graphics panel. I'm a very avid user of the legacy title tool and I find that I'm infinitely more proficient and efficient when using the legacy title tool vs the essential graphics panel.

If adobe is going to force us users to switch to the Essential graphics panel in future updates, I would great appreciate some of the key functionality of the legacy title tool being implemented into the essential graphics tool.

Specific features:
- In Legacy Titler (LT), the user has a line tool to create a very simple line either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. Essential graphics only gives us the option of a rectangle which you have to then approximate into a line if you need a line. Also LT gives us the ability to control the width/weight of the line with a number, making it even easier to create said line.
- in the same idea, LT gives us shape tools like the circle tool which we can use to create a perfect circle by holding down the shift key while clicking and dragging. Essential graphics has an ellipse but when it is selected, the shape isn't a perfect circle and theres no easy way that I can find to make it a perfect circle.
- Alt+Click and drag to duplicate. In LT, you can click on a shape, line or text while holding the Alt key and duplicate that item. Essential graphics does not have this functionality.
- Inner/Outer stroke: In LT, the user can choose to create a stroke on the outside of an object or the inside. The outer stroke creates a rounded edge on sharp corners. In the Essential graphics, the stroke option seems to only limit the user to an inner stroke which creates a very sharp corner and may not always be the desired choice.
- LT has the "*****" parameter for text, which is very useful. I cannot find the same parameter in the Essential graphics panel.
- Fill options: LT gives us the ability to choose bevels, gradients, solid and eliminate fills while Essential graphics seems to only give us the option of a solid fill or no fill. Those extra options could be necessary to someone.
- Back to the shape options, the Pen tool is present in LT while it is not an option in the Essential graphics.

I hope someone from adobe sees this and at least considers the idea. I'm sure I'm not alone in this need for these features to be available in Premiere. As it stands, I'm simply unable to get the same results with Essential Graphics that I can easily achieve in LT.

PFCHECKOUTPARAM no longer returns a valid image from PFCmdUSERPARAMCHANGED in Premiere Beta, as of 22.1.1 BETA build 41.
Occurs on Mac and Windows, every system, every time. PFCHECKOUTPARAM doesn't return an error but the effect world have bogus value, like very large width and rowbytes.
If we need to use another API that's fine, but PFCHECKOUTPARAM should at least return an error.
PrSDKSequenceRenderSuite seems to be the alternative, but I have not yet tried setting other parameters from the completion callback.

To reproduce this, download Beauty Box, apply and click on Analyze Frame (image content doesn't matter).

When selecting text in the 'Text' -> 'Captions' panel and copying/cutting, the last character selected becomes deselected.

For example, if I copy the phrase 'The quick brown fox' and paste it into another caption, the pasted text reads 'The quick brown fo'.

This is more frustrating when cutting text as the last character remains in the original location.

For example, if I select and cut 'The quick brown fox' and paste it into a new caption, I end up with 'x' in the original caption and 'The quick brown fo' in the new caption.

This has been a bug through various recent updates and affects all projects.

I'm happy about the new Metadata & Timecode Burn-in plugin. The addition I would really like to see is an option in the list for Date and Time, showing when the clip was shot.

In nearly every video I make, I need to know/display what time it was when it the clip was shot. I believe some cameras record special metadata for this, while others like GoPro just have the creation date. Being able to display this onscreen via a plug-in would be a tremendous benefit. Today I use a different NLE in order to retrieve this info from my timeline clips.

So let's say I have two projects going - Video A for Client 1 and Video B for Client 2 We'll say I've already exported a version of each video to the correct (different) filepaths.
Lets say I have approvals on both projects - I export Video A for Client 1. Next, I open up Video B and export for Client 2. Even though this is a different project file, Premiere still defaults to my last export location - Video A for Client 1. Would be nice if Premiere defaulted to the last export location based on project instead of globally.

I tend to work on multiple, small projects for different clients in one day. Client folders are organized a few levels deep (client, year, project, outputs). I feel like there's a lot of time wasted selecting export paths. Very minor thing, but all that time adds up!

Hi, I often work with producers remotely. I send stringouts, they respond with selects, and so on. It'd be great to see an option to burn in my overlays (clip timecode, audio timecode, marker text, and whatever else I have selected to display.) in the export. This would be a lot easier for everyone watching to just jog thru footage and jump to sections of the video they want to see based on marker text. not everyone is on premiere so they cannot see the embedded markers. XMP data would also be a great option to include in overlays/burn in.

This is a longshot, but it'd also be great to see chapters added automatically based on markers with direct-to-youtube exports. Fairly simple, Just a matter of adding a time prefix in the description for each chapter automatically.
