Premiere 2026.

Transmit doesn't launch at startup. You need to open and close the prefs panel to activate it.

Reset preferences doesn’t do anything.
It is a bug that I reported back to v2025, but the topic doesn’t exist anymore…

Thanks.

    This bug is definitely still present. It happens to me on windows 11 pro with 5090.

    Every time Premiere opens my second monitor doesnt work (Mac Studio monitors) 

    I have to manually go into playback and uncheck Adobe Monitor 2 or enable Mercury button to reset it. 

    It then appears and works after about 10 seconds. Having to do this every launch. Was an original post saying it was a known bug but post and reply are not on the new Adobe web pages.

    Hi ​@maximeb24899079,

     

    Thank you for reporting an issue. Content created between November 17 and launch day [Jan 27] will be added soon and is in the process of being migrated. A bug for this problem has already been filed and the thread will updated as more known.

     

    Another workaround for this is to open the project with the Color or Effects workspace already selected or to switch to the Color or Effects workspace. If not in these workspaces, opening the Lumetri Color panel can also resume Transmit playback.

     

    Sorry for the frustration,

    Dani

    Thank you ​@Dani_V.
    I forgot the workarounds, so thanks for the reminder.
    What is surprising for me is that this bug went away when I did a clean install of my Mac with the previous version of Premiere.
    It’s the upgrade to 2026 that brought it back. I guess having a fresh system can get rid of some bugs.
