Scrubbing frame by frame in timeline
Posted by Stephen N. on February 10, 2014 at 6:00 amHey all,
Switcher here from FCP7/X. How can one scrub frame by frame in the timeline without the mouse? In any other NLE all one needs to do is use the left or right arrows. In Premiere, when you do that nothing happens. This seems like something that is so simple. Does something need to be enabled prefs?
Thanks!

Left and right arrow keys should do exactly this when the timeline panel is active, which is indicated as a gold outline. Click the timeline or hit Shift+3.
Arrow keys also work in the source monitor when that is active (Shift+2).

February 10, 2014 at 6:56 pmI tried all of the above and it doesn’t seem to respond.
The timecode will move when hitting left/right arrows but the actual timeline indicator stays still. It’s bizarre. I’m running CC. Is this a bug?
