Question

Playhead jumps forward after a cut in Premiere Pro

Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing a really annoying issue in Premiere Pro. Every time I make a cut in the timeline, the playhead jumps forward by several frames, sometimes even by a few seconds.

Does anyone know what might be causing this? I've already tried restarting the program, but the issue persists.

Thanks in advance for any help!

See picture for my premiere version

I just found the solution on Reddit. If you are using searching a transcript in the text tab then it casue the playhead to jump to the word you are searching for. I cleared the search box and the playhead stopped jumping. I hope this works for you as well!
