If you don’t want to use all the videos you added, you can delete them from the Project Assets panel. Deleting a video from the panel doesn’t delete it from its original location. This practice is recommended for large VOB files.

Videos with Variable Frame Rate footage

Videos captured from mobile devices may have variable frame rate (VFR), which results in issues such as unsynchronized video and audio during playback.

Premiere Elements 2019 detects VFR footage from a video clip’s properties. To see the properties of a clip, choose File > Get Properties for > Selection. Alternatively, right-click the clip in the Project Assets panel and select Properties.

Premiere Elements 2019 automatically synchronizes the audio with videos that have VFR footage. 

Capture video from webcams and WDM devices

You can capture live video from webcams and WDM devices (Windows only) and copy the video clips to a specified location on your hard drive. This option opens the Capture window. 

You can capture the clips directly to the timeline by selecting Capture to Timeline check box.

You can add these clips to Adobe Premiere Elements by following the procedure mentioned in Add media from file and folders.
