PRE2021: Preview not rendering for clips

Question

My Premiere Elements does not (preview) render cuts that consist of less then 10 frames.

I would like to know if this is a general bug or if this is just happening to me. This never happened to me in PRE2018 but in PRE2021 is constantly causing my timeline to stutter (after rendering) and it's pretty annoying.

Steps to reproduce:
- Import a clip
- Cut the clip down to 9 frames
- Add an adjustment so the indicator turns orange and clip would need rendering (e.g. Color Temp)
- Hit Render
- Short cut will not render and indicator will stay orange

Before y'all start questioning 'why the heck would you need this?': I just need it, period.

Sure, I can alter my timeline with work a rounds so I can avoid these short cuts but I feel this shouldn't be necessary. Leaving it unrendered (orange) will often cause my whole timeline to stutter because PRE is usually incapable of 'catching' up once it starts stuttering.

I was able to duplicate this -- although render worked fine for any video clip longer than one second.

I don't know what to tell you beyond that. I'm surprised to hear your whole timeline stutters because of an unrendered 1/3 a second of video, but I don't know any way to make it happen.

If you'd like to tell us why you need such a brief clip, maybe we can suggest an alternative way to accomplish it.
