FX Badges - Tracks Too Wide - Auto Update - Issues I've encountered with 24.4.1

I'm working off of a new computer and forgot to turn off auto-update on my creative cloud account, and so today woke up to 24.4.1. Yesterday I was using 24.3.

Two major issues I've encountered thus far:

1. The fx button on clips gets in the way of me selecting clips on the timeline with my mouse and moving them. Instead I find I have to zoom in so as to avoid this annoying button. Moving clips on the timeline is far more important than an fx button. This should be fixed/resolved asap.

2. I like to have my my timeline tracks as thin as possible so I can see as many of the layers of video/gfx/text/audio as possible. BUT when the timeline tracks are at that thinness you cannot use 'show duplicate frame markers'. It simply isn't visible. I have to 'shift +' to see if any clips have already been used. This is not an improvement.

I've been working on an hour long sequence all morning now, and these are the two issues that have most jumped out at me. There may be more. But these are enough that I'm planning on reverting to 24.3 at the end of the day. God help me if it can't read my 24.4.1 prproj file.

Lastly, auto-update should never be the default setting in creative cloud. When you are working on a remote team with heavy deadlines and suddenly your premiere version is different... It's not great.

Mod note: The title was changed to reflect your issue.

Hi laurak9014452,

The fix for Duplicate Frame Markers not showing on tracks with minimum height is now available in Pr v24.6 Beta. Refer to this link to learn more about the Creative Cloud Beta program. Hope you find it useful.

Thanks,

Sumeet

I keep seeing notifications about issues with 24.4.1, so I'm still on 24.3 and waiting for another dot release before even thinking about updating. Very dissapointed to hear the duplicate frame markers don't show up with thin tracks. 2 questions for you, though:

1. Please forgive me if this sounds like a dumb question, but: There's always been an FX badge option for clips in the timeline, which can be turned off, so I'm just wondering if this is a new version that, or different thing than that which you're encountering, or if it's just that the fx badge option that was always there and which you might have had turned off, got turned on by default in the new version?

2. I've been having trouble lately in 24.3 with my duplicate frame markers not showing properly. It feels like maybe I need to delete some cache files or maybe reset my preferenes. I haven't taken the time to troubleshoot it. My point in bringing that up though is to ask whether what you're seeing smells like a bug (ie: sometimes showing, sometimes not, behaving inconsistently) or are you seeing dup frame markers behaving normally except when in the narrowest track setting?

Couldn't agree more about "auto-update". I mean, for bug fixes, I can see the argument for it, but definitely not for new feature updates.

Will be intersted to hear if you can open your 24.4.1 proj in 24.3.

Posting more things as I notice them.

I adjust gain on audio clips all the time. In the old versions of Premiere there was a quick visual shorthand to let me know a track had been adjusted (the yellow box). That's gone now, so to check a clip I have to actually open the gain up and see if it's been adjusted.
