Timeline looping, how to switch off!
Just a simple one hopefully, my sequence always loops when it gets to the end on playback, I’ve tried switching loop on and off with no effect, am I missing something obvious?
Premiere Pro 5.04 on Mac Pro

You’ve disabled looping by clicking the Loop button for that sequence in the Program Monitor?

Yes, a number of times, it still loops!

You’re certain that you’ve clicked the Loop button for the specific sequence in the Program Monitor—i.e., not in the Source Monitor and not in the Program Monitor for a different sequence?

Same problem here and the longer the edit sequence gets, the more annoying. As you add to an edit sequence you are always playing around at the end of it – now I’m learning to catch it on the last frame – doh!
I used to be Jon Hiseman but I’m feeling better now.

Glad it’s not just me then

Is there a solution for this yet?

When I paste a clip into the end of a timeline the current-time indicator automatically moves to the end of the clip / then end of the timeline.
Clicking the spacebar then moves the current-time indicator to the beginning of the timeline and starts playing. This occurs whether Looping in the Project Monitor is ON or OFF.
If I position the current-time indicator near or at the end of the last clip in a sequence and click the spacebar, the current-time indicator will stop at the end of the sequence if Looping is turned OFF.
So pasting a clip to the end of a sequence somehow temporarily ignores the Looping switch.

Yes the fix is to place a clip anywhere further down in the sequence as a “stop looping” invention.

Boooo! This is annoying. Especially when you have a long video in in your timeline. The playhead defaults all the way back to the beginning after it reaches the end of the last clip. This makes it very difficult to work on the last clip in your timeline. Putting some black video further down the track does work, but I hate goofy fixes like this. Adobe, make it better please!
