Timeline looping, how to switch off!

Ok, that’s weird. We edited almost 12 months with CS6 before switching to CC and we did not have that problem. If we did it would have driven us insane. No clue what to tell you. We have 7 total installs for the company, none of them exhibit this.

[Steve Connor] “[walter biscardi] “We have two systems that have been cutting with CC here for some time now, both iMacs, and playback behavior is correct. When looping is off, Playback stops. When looping is on, playback loops.

Same with my home iMac system. I’m not seeing the software get “stuck” in looping.

I haven’t had this work correctly on 4 different systems since 5.5″

Just re-installed Premiere CC and it’s finally stopped looping!

Hi,

This will stop your sequence timeline looping….

In the timeline. Top right pull down arrow. Untick “Work area bar”.

Best

I tried turning off the work area bar, but it still loops.

PP CS6 same issue as described… and a fix (not a workaround).

In the program monitor, I checked the settings dropdown menu (the wrench icon), and “loop” was unchecked. I tried turning it on and off, both settings continued to loop the sequence when the final frame was reached.

I then went into my “buttons editor” (the plus icon at the base of the program monitor), and dragged a “loop” button onto my visible buttons palette. Switching this on and then off did the trick. Now, no looping in that sequence.

Hope this helps.

That’s brilliant Houston!
Thanks so much for this discovery! It’s been driving me bananas.

oh man, guys, final cut was great, but it’s dead. now we’ve gotta stop using that space bar. turn looping off and only use “J” “K” and “L”.

we did it! where’s my parade?

Go to preferences and in General untick the box that says “A playback end, return to beginning when restarting playback”

That should turn off the auto looping

Thanks Houston Wells (on Nov 8, 2013)

Adding/dragging the loop icon to palette then switch on and off worked for me too…

Thanks David

Changing the default option within Prefs/General has worked.
