Adobe Premiere Elements 2024 - yellow line - problem?

I have full version of Adobe Premiere Elements 2024. GPU acceleration if enabled, still I can see the yellow line above my first clip just after importing it and placing on the timeline. I don't understand why. 

 

I have also APE2021 and there is no yellow line (no need to render) above the same clip. 

 

Is there any issue with APE2024 GPU Acceleration?

 

Here it is video showing that problem: https://youtu.be/dahkr1rxZ40

When is a search feature going to be added to the KBSC, so we can find shortcuts easily. As of now it's a big PITA.

This functionality was added in PRE2022. Yellow line means that rendering is not required but user can still render if they want to. You will get an orange line if you apply a non-GPU effect. Orange line means that rendering is required.

Adding in and outpoint on the timeline is not very intuitive ALt+[/]

Should be default I and O.

There is some serious problem here.

In Adobe Premiere Elements 2024, when I press Enter it starts to render EVERYTHING even if the video is compatible with the project settings and there are no effects applied. Even if GPU acceleration is Enabled. For example,

If I import two clips, 1) 10min long and 2) 10sec long. And then if I apply some effect to the short clip 2 and press ENTER, APE2024 will render both clips which obviously takes a lot if time and it is unnecessary.  

 

If I do the same thing in APE2021, only clip number 2 will be rendered as the effect has been only applied to that clip. Clips 1 doesn’t require rendering when it is compatible with project settings.

Even if it were not compatible with project settings, then APE shouldn’t render it when GPU acceleration is enabled. This is what official adobe advert says:

In versions 2023 and 2024 of Premiere Elements you will see a yellow line even if the video is compatible with the program.

 

An orange line indicates a need to render a clip.

Something strange is going on here. In APE2021, when I press Enter, it starts to play the clip, whereas in APE2024 it starts to render it and then plays it.  Why is it rendering in APE2024 if the video in compatibilie with the current project settings?

Pressing Enter in any version of the program will render your timeline.
