Current time indicator isn't moving during playback

During playback, the Current time indicator is not moving. It moves a bit and then freezes. I'm not sure if it's relevant, but I'm using a new Intel PC with plenty of ram (64 GB). My other PC is an AMD and doesn't have this issue. Is this a known bug? The only solution I've found from others involves reinstalling Windows. I'd prefer to avoid that.

Hi Chris

 

Is it possible for you to share the project with me so I can investigate further? As @jenkmeister17177426 mentioned, we haven't had any luck reproducing this internally. If it is possible for you to share it, send me a private message with a download location.

One possible thing to try is to play back without the audio tracks

 

Thanks

I have asked one of my engineers to take a look at this forum post and see what might be going on. We don't have an internal repro so we'll need to get some more data from you.

Hi Jenkmeister, I posted the video a few days ago. Any ideas? Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks!

Can you share a screen recording of what you're seeing, including the Preview Panel so we can see your settings?
