Adobe Premiere Pro CC Timeline automatically zooms in when moving clips around

This is an issue that keeps happening. It has been an ongoing problem with Premiere Pro CC and now 2014.1. It would start after working for a while on a project and become more frequent as the project gets larger. The only way to rectify the problem is restarting the computer. I would be working and I go to drag a clip around on the timeline and the timeline will automatically zoom in and thus place the clip in the wrong location. This happens when I am not holding down any keys. It will continue to zoom in every time I move any clips on the timeline and once it starts it happens on all sequences. While restarting the computer seems to help I have to do that 5 or more times in a day which can be very frustrating. It doesn't seem to be related to any OS, computer, hard drive/storage. Deleting preview files, flushing PRAM, trashing preferences doesn't help either. I usually work with Quicktime files AppleProRes Codec or H.264. Any help or insight into this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a video that demonstrates the bug:
Premiere Pro Version: Every version from 7.0.0 to 8.1
OS Version: Every version of Mavricks and Yosemite including version 10.10.1
The footage I most use is H.264 and ProRes 422
The problem occurs randomly throughout the day, nothing seems to trigger it. When it starts the only way to make it stop is to restart the computer
Other software running at this particular time is” Mail, Evernote, Safari, OmniFocus, On The Job, Text Expander, Messages, Preview
No third-party effects or codecs installed.
Hardware:
Mac Pro (Late 2013)
3 GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon 5
32 GB 1866 MHz DDR3
AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB.
No third-party I/O hardware.
Mercury Playback Engine is turned ON

Hi Patrick,
Sorry, I've never seen that. What happens if you do not run any other software launched as you work? If you have time, please file a bug report: http://adobe.ly/ReportBug

Do you have QuickTime and the associated codecs installed in your PC?

Audio Glitch in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 Timeline (not a clip problem - it's the timeline space)

I have an audio glitch that appears to be tied to a space in my timeline and not to a certain audio clip. If I drag or move the audio clip further up or down the timeline it plays fine. If I move a different audio file into this area, the audio drops out in the same area, even with volumes set where they need to be. There are absolutely no keyframes set in this area and I want to be clear about that. However, this issue did come up only the software froze on me as I was loading my project. I believe my best bet is to delete delete my media cach and media cache files so that clips are reconformed... unless someone has additional input or has experienced similar issue with the sound.
As a note, I also reinstalled Quicktime. I am working with AVI files/aac auio codec.

No. You will not find any Master Track Keyframes. These will be on the Audio Track, and will be attached to the Track, regardless of what Clip you have there. Here is a look at Track Keyframes, not to be confused with Clip Keyframes from PrPro 2.0:
Hope that this helps and good luck,

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 & CC Shutting down iMac when exporting.

Hi!
I have had my iMac for around a year: Mid 2011 iMac 21", 12GB RAM. I switched from FCPX because Adobe just had more for me. FCPX exported fast and fine. But when I move to Adobe suddenly exporting becomes an issue. I have tried both CS6 and CC both do the same thing.
I will be exporting something normaly full 1080p DSLR footage and it will get half way into the export and shut down the mac. The mac will just restart. It does it every single time. The issue has now also started when just trying to render a prodject not even export. I want to use Adobe but I just can't. It does the same exporting from Premiere and AME. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP.
I have taken my iMac into Apple and they have run stress tests for 24 hours and it was fine... Please help!

Are youusing FilmConvert by chance? I was seeing the same issue; when I finally tested the same project by duping the sequence and removing only the filmconvert filter - all was well. FilmConvert is causing runaway RAM usage which eventually made the Swap file so big the computer rebooted after a Kernel Panic.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Playback Unusable-PLAYBACK ISSUES

Hello,
I've just downloaded the Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Trial, but whenever I put a clip in the sequence timeline, the playback stops after a second or so. I filmed my screen to show the problem (computer specs at the end of the video).Is it because the sequence settings do not match the clip's properties? I'm also new to Adobe Premiere.
Here's the video:

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 has stopped working when importing music (Windows 8)

I have a problem with Adobe premiere Pro CS6 on windows 8. When I use Premiere Pro CS6 for the first time, it's doesn't have any problem, but now I can't import music to Premiere Pro CS6 and it's say ''Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 has stopped working'', I don't know what should I do. How to fix it ?

>started roughly around the same time on both computers
Most likely cause is a Windows update that changed "something" about the video system

Movie Clip in swf won't show animation in adobe premiere pro cs4

Hi, I am new to this forum and as well as a beginner user of adobe premiere pro cs4. I am recently making a animation using Adobe Flash CS5, I've been using movie clips symbol to create all the movement of the character, background and stuff. Unfortunately, swf movies exported from Adobe Flash CS5 do not show any animation at all in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. I have to use movie clips symbol instead of graphic symbol because filters can be added to a movie clip symbol but not graphic symbol. Is there any way to help making the movie clip symbol to be shown in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4? Your help is much appreciated.

Check Flash help in the "video" section, specifically "moving content between" PR and FL. (I was looking at CS4, but it must be there in CS5 help as well.)
Your movie is to be watched on a TV? I would do this in After Effects. because you'll lose most of the flash functionality once you go to video anyway,

Z book 17 No picture on Adobe Premiere pro Cs6

Hi
I have a new Z book 17 (with the NVIDIA 3100m) and I am using Adobe Premiere Pro cs6 for video editing.
When option "Mercury playback engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA)" is on, there is black on Premiere's video windows
When i select the 2nd option "Mercury playback engine Software only" the picture reapears.
I think it is something with the Graphics card and the CUDA but i see others Z book users to work just fine with CUDA.
Can you please help ?
Thank you

Adobe premiere pro CS6 crashes whenever I move the timeline

Hi there, my Adobe Premiere pro CS6 crashes when moving the timeline or importing new clips. I have tried several things, I opened up a earlier project to try that and it was fine for a while, but after about 5-10mins of use it hit the same problem and would then always crash whenever I openend it and moved the timeline marker or added a new clip.
Another problem that may or may not be related, is that some clips are broken up into about 6 glitchy squares instead of the actual clip.
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

>an AMD 6670 GPU
What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
-If Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information
-you need to go direct to the vendor web site and check updates for yourself

How do I shorten the length of the timeline in Adobe Premiere Pro?

This is my first time using Adobe Premiere Pro. I created a slideshow of images with music. The entire length with all of the images ends up being around 40 minutes. The length of the entire timeline is over 10 hours. I had finished my slideshow and exported it in a .mov format. The exported file ended up being a 10 hour long video with the first 40 minutes being the actual slideshow and the rest of it was blank. That file ended up being about 140 GB in size. All that I want to do is to cut off the rest of the time after the first 40 minutes. PLEASE HELP!!!!

Set In and Out Points or the Work Area Bar to the Head and Tail of your edit.
The when you Export..use either of those as a setting to tell the exporter what to export. There is a Menu for it in AME.

Adobe Premiere Pro Automatically Crops Source Video Upon Import

This is really confusing me and I've never had this kind of trouble before. I have source videos that are 720x480, but as soon as I import them into Premiere, they are cropped to 540x480. It's not a problem with sequence settings or anything, because the imported source file is cropped before it's even in a sequence. I tried looking on-line for a solution, but couldn't find any. Does anyone know how this can be fixed...maybe some import settings that I don't know about?
Here are some screenshots to visually represent what I was saying:
This is properties of the video
This is what Premiere automatically does right after the video is imported as a source
This is a screenshot when played with VLC:
This is a screenshot when played from the source in Premiere:
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. This video is due Saturday and all my footage is cropped, please help me. Thank you!

11. Re: Adobe Premiere Pro AND Adobe Premiere Elements 13 Automatically Crops Source Video Upon Import
My AP Elements (version 13) has exactly the same bug. I have a DVD where 25% of every VOB file's images' right border has been cut away during the inserting phase into Elements. No adjusting of frame and pixel aspect ratios, black borders narrow or wide, project settings automatic or manual do not help. Gone is gone. But the same VOB files play normally (100% image) in many other players/editors. I have experimented with VLC and Wondershare Video Converter.
On the other hand Elements is able to read correctly other DVD's VOB files. See discussion about this very same bug in Elements thread.

Whenever I use Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014, My macbook occasionally re-boots automatically! Any idea why and how to fix it?

I am using a Macbook Pro 15" late 2013 model, and it works great. However, when I use Adobe Premiere Pro (which is a lot as I am studying editing) it occasionally freezes for a second then reboots itself. I got the details of the error and pasted them into this document[1] if it is of any help.
The edition of premiere is new as I used to work with CS5 and recently upgraded in the last few weeks. If anyone could help resolve the issue, that would be great!

Not exactly the same, but it SOUNDS like you have hardware problems... P-Pro puts a LOT of stress on hardware

Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 3.2.0 update

Thought I'd share a bit of information on the 3.2.0 update that will be coming out via AUM this morning. The update will come out first via AUM, then will be available on the updates page shortly after at http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/?ogn=EN_US-gntray_dl_updates.
The readme will also be hosted at http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/premierepro/releasenotes.html.
Dave Helmly has posted about the update on his blog, as well: http://blogs.adobe.com/davtechtable/2008/04/xdcam_and_premiere_32.html#more
New in this release:
- This update adds compatibility with the Sony XDCAM range of cameras. This includes disc-based XDCAM and XDCAM HD cameras., and the newer SxS-based XDCAM EX cameras. Content from XDCAM cameras can be imported and edited natively without transcoding or conversion. This makes possible similar workflows to Panasonic P2, including the ability to edit content directly from XDCAM EX cameras.
- Note: Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 3.2.0 does not support IMX editing or XDCAM HD50 editing at this time. Export to XDCAM is also not possible.
- Adobe Premiere Pro now has presets for HDV 24p. Note: Adobe Premiere Pro does NOT support print to tape in 24p mode.
- Improved handling of MPEG streams (e.g.: HDV video), along with error detection. MPEG stream errors can occur during recording due to tape dropouts, record start/stop glitches, timecode breaks, etc. Bad frames caused by these MPEG stream errors are identified during import/indexing or playback. These frames will play back as full red frames to alert the user that there is a problem in the encoded video at that location. Adobe Premiere Pro will also log error messages to the Events panel, indicating where the error(s) were encountered in the stream. Users can open the Events panel, determine the location of the MPEG stream error, navigate to that location in the clip and take corrective action, such as trimming out the video glitch or covering up the red frames with duplicated good frames copied from before or after the glitch. Note: MPEG files will need to be re-indexed to take advantage of the improvements in Adobe
Premiere Pro CS3 3.2.0. For more information, please see Working with MPEG Files.
Notable fixes:
- Titles/Footage no longer show up as offline when reloading saved projects.
- Rendered preview files no longer missing when reloading saved projects.
- Certain filters and/or transitions are now applied correctly when reloading saved projects, until the timeline is forcibly refreshed.
- When exporting via the Adobe Media Encoder, there is no longer a long delay before the progress dialog shows and rendering resums (Mac OS 10.5.x only).
- 24p HDV clips shot on a Canon XH A1 no longer come in incorrectly as 30 fps clips.
- Creating an offline clip in the project window then attempting to link it to media on disk no longer results in the application crashing.
- QT PAL movies rendered out of Adobe After Effects® software are no longer incorrectly identified as requiring rendering in a Adobe Premiere Pro PAL project.
- DV Clips of certain specific durations are no longer incorrectly identified on the timeline as requiring rendering.
- For P2 DVCPro clips, the right-most pixel column no longer contains video garbage.
- Fixed a memory fragmentation problem that would occur with projects with many custom bin columns.
- Fixed a bug where exporting to a QuickTime movie (with QT 7.4) would crash the application.
- Selecting "display only exact name matches" when relinking clip no longer crashes on Leopard.
- Fixed an issue where 30p and 30f HDV clips would incorrectly be identified as requiring rendering in a 29.97 progressive project.

Harm,
I don't use HDV, so I'm not sure if this is the case or not, but in the top post, there is mention of having to re-index the MPEG files "to take advantage of the improvements in Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 3.2.0." While it seems this should be an automatic process, maybe wiping out the previously-created index files (I seem to remember them being in the Media Cache folder when importing MPG files from DVD rips and such) would let the project open. Or, maybe the old trick of importing an existing project into a new one? Just a couple thoughts...
To the other poster: surely, I don't jest. At least, not when it comes to anything in the video production industry and my operation in it. Long ago, I gave up expecting perfection from any particular piece of hardware or software, and just focused on being creative. That's why I got into this. I refuse to let any piece of equipment dictate what I can or can't do--I just find another way around. Funny how we managed to make it as a species and a civilization as long as we have, and now that computers are here to make our lives easier (*snort*), we're quick to raise our ire about everything that's wrong with them. That's why I will always marvel at things built long ago prior to the advent of all the technology we take for granted today.
Anyway, we're all entitled to our opinions, and I've taken this thread completely off-topic. My apologies, so...
