You can export movies for playback on cell phones, some PDAs, and portable media players, such as video iPods, Microsoft Zune, and PlayStation Portable (PSP) devices. Adobe Premiere Elements has presets that automatically provide for a number of these devices. You can also customize presets to match the format requirements of a given device.

Export using an iPod or PSP preset to produce your own video podcasts (also called vodcasts).

1. Consult the user guide for the device to determine the video file formats it supports.
2. Click Share in the Tasks panel, and then click Mobile Phones And Players.
3. Select your player from the list at the top of the panel.
4. Select a preset from the Preset menu. The details, such as file type and frame rate, appear below the preset name.
5. Type a name for your file, and then click Browse to specify a location to save the file.
6. (Optional) Click Advanced and specify options as desired.

   For information on options, see Common settings for Sharing.

7. You can save the changes you make to a preset as a new preset for future use, or create a Quick Share so you don’t have to continually make these changes.
   Note: You may need to customize a 3GP preset to export video that will play on a specific 3GP phone. Check your phone’s user guide for its requirements. Also, not all phones support the 3GP format exported by Adobe Premiere Elements.
8. Click Save. Adobe Premiere Elements renders your movie into a file that you can copy to the device.
9. (Optional) Click Save As Quick Share to share the settings as a Quick Share preset in the main view of the Share workspace.

Adobe Premiere Elements lets you quickly export your movie in formats suitable for use in specific mobile devices by providing optimized presets for specific devices. Use the provided presets for best results. If your project requires special settings, you can click the Advanced button and make changes.

All mobile files are compressed using the H.264 compression standard.
