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!

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!
