I'm doing a tutorial, and I noticed my timeline is quite different from the one in the video:

This is mine:

This is the tutorial's:

The first problem is that I can't find the Add Videos button in my timeline.

The second is that when I import videos from the top bar File, the videos become layers instead of whole videos.

I hope someone can tell me what's wrong with my Photoshop!

The top image is a Frame animation.

The bottom image is a Timeline animation.

To switch between frame and timeline, click the menu on the Timeline Panel and choose the other option...

You can also choose whether you want a frame or timeline animation before creating the animation:

NOTE!

In order to create video timelines you MUST have the "Extended" version of Photoshop. The standard version does not offer the video timeline features.

I've the same issue and I've read that reinstalling Photoshop solves the problem. I haven't tried yet, though.

There is also the possibility of not having the Extended version installed.
