scrubbing in FCP 5

[Tom Wolsky]

I don’t understand. Scrubbing is what you do when you move the playhead forward and backward in the timeline. Do you mean holding K and L or K and J together? What’s scrubbing have to do with the pen tool?

When I pres J or K twice or more and I want move playhead quickly, playhead jumps or FCP crash.When I drag playhead with pen all is ok.

I understand what you’re saying, but I can’t make that happen. It doesn’t skip, and the application doesn’t crash. It may have to do with the sequence, length, content, material, but I’ve not seen in the month or so we’ve been using v5 on any of the machines we’ve worked on.

Thanks for Your answer,
the same problem is on Apple Discussion:
“when ik use jkl to scrub through tapes, the computer hangs for a minute, this doesnt happen when i use the mouse to move through a tape…

very annoying
