File Format

Optimize Stills
Specifies the format of the preview video.
Identifies the codec (compressor/decompressor) that Premiere Elements applies to generate movie previews. The project preset
defines the codec. You cannot change it because it must conform to the DV standard.
note: If you don’t apply effects to your clip or change its frame/time characteristics, Adobe Premiere Elements uses the clip’s original codec for
playback. If your changes necessitate frame recalculation, Adobe Premiere Elements applies the codec identified here.
Select this option to use still images efficiently in projects. For example, you can use an image that has a duration of 2 seconds in
a 30-fps project. Premiere Elements creates a 2-second frame instead of 60 frames, each with a duration of 1/30 second. Deselect this option if
projects encounter playback problems when displaying still images.
