Lagging/choppy backward playback

I've seen several posts about lagging playback, but none of the tips I found worked.

My issue is a bit different—normal forward playback is smooth, as expected.

However, backward playback is extremely choppy, with most frames being lost, making it completely unusable.

Premiere Pro version: 24.6.1
Windows version: 10.0.26100, Build 26100
14900 / 4080 Super / 128GB RAM / SSD 990 Pro 4TB

I expect smooth playback in both directions.

The edited material consists of Canon R5 files in 4K ALL-I format, which, as I understand, shouldn't be a challenge for this setup.

    Ok I figured it out. (BTW its very hard to find if the CC window is not maximized)

    I confirm that in 25.1.0 BETA is the same.

    The backward playback is choppy. Both using J key and pressing left arrow.

    Also after some time of trying backward playback - the forward playback also get choppy for some time.

    Considering the usual state of the new releases, I'm reluctant to install something even more 'stable'. I can do that for the quick confimation if you tell me how. I birefly looked for beta apps or some kind of option in the CC app but I dont see it.

    I will try 24.6.1

    Hi @Imgorthand - Can you try updating to the latest beta and see if that helps your issue.  Confirming that you are running version 25.1.0.  Does this issue happen in 24.6.1?
