Playhead Jumping Each Second

Question

Hi! I have been using Premiere for about 8 years now and have never encountered this issue. I recently updated my computer, and now when I playback my video, my playhead only lands on the tick mark of each second rather than moving smoothly throughout the timeline. (I have attached a video of this below.) My playback itself is extremely smooth; my computer is a beast and has never had an issue with any Premiere. I can click and move the playhead to any interval and make detailed edits when it is paused, but as soon as I press play, it starts snapping to each second again. This makes it difficult to make precise audio edits. I tried changing various playback settings, but nothing has worked so far. I wonder if there is a simple fix to this that I don't know of. Any help is appreciated!

Based on this, I made a new sequence and moved all my footage into it and it fixed the problem. It seems like my screencapture footage imported at about 1.18 fps (not sure why) and my sequence settings must have changed to that as well and affected everything. Thank you so much for your help!!

Hi there,

For testing purposes, would you mind creating a Bars and Tone clip (File > New > Bars and Tone) & creating a sequence from it to check if the CTI movement during playback is smooth?

Thanks,

Sumeet
