CS6 Playhead jumping around on timeline
Anyone else having this problem: After updating to CS6 (from 5.5) when I move the playhead around on a timeline it jumps to a place I did not put it. I am using a normal mouse and keyboard. Here is a video of the bug happening on an h.264 timeline with hardware accelerated MPE turned on.

Hi Avi,
Mac or Win? What OS? Any third party hardware/plugins?
Thanks,

Do you have the Reference monitor open? I only get this bug when I do – I think it’s connected to Premiere getting behind in processing for the reference monitor, and jumping back to the frame that it’s just done.
I think I may have had this bug back in CS3 too (my previous version) – not sure.

Wow, unganging the program monitor fixed the problem. It is annoying to have to re-gang the monitor when needed but not nearly as bad as having the play head jump around. Thanks Thomas!
For anyone else having this problem my system is:
HP z200 – i7 870
Win 7 Pro
16GB Ram
RAID 0 (3 2tb drives) video
1 x SSD for Cache
1 x SSD for OS -
I get that problem too. It always happens when I have a Scopes tab on the desktop. Doesn’t matter if they’re active/viewable or not. If the scopes tab is up anywhere then playback will not always start where you place the CTI.

No problem, glad I could help!

It’s a scopes issue for me too!
Thanks for the tip, it was driving me crazy…

FWIW, I am suddenly getting a similar problem in CS6 with the playhead jumping to the beginning of the timeline after I split a clip. No idea why. Very frustrating.
Playing timeline sequence. Split a clip (ctrl+k). Stop playhead (space bar). Play again (space bar) and the Playhead jumps to beginning of the entire sequence.
Posting hear because this is the first post that came up when I searched “premiere jumps to beginning of timeline after split.”

Hi Jonas,
I know this post was some years ago, but do you remember if/how you solved the issue – I am having the same problem and cannot find any solutions on the net.
Cheers,

Unfortunately it’s been awhile, and I don’t remember what I did! Sorry.
I know at some point I did a “settings purge,” but that’s a pretty desperate measure, since you lose all your preferences. I think I may have also done a reinstall of the entire suite at some point, but that’s even worse. [wink]
