Can't see video on "Program: Sequence"

Community Beginner ,
Jun 20, 2025 Jun 20, 2025

Hi! I've recent download premiere pro on my laptop and I've been struggling to see the program sequence area. You can hear the audio of the video but not see the screen. When I change it into full view it shows, but of course I can't edit it.

I've tried several videos on youtube if I can fix the problem but none works ("mercury playback engine software only", "Memory" "Uninstall and install"...)

Any suggestions?

I did. I also reset the setting on premiere. It runs smoothly now, but the screen still black as I hit play. The audio of the video is still there.

Are you still getting the same result if you set the playback res to 1/4 ?

Are you using any iphone 4K video footages ?

Hi @IanB_360 

  • Issue – As I open Premiere Pro, I add the videos I want to edit, however, i cannot see any footage unless I put it on full screen mode. You can hear the audio as it play but the program sequence stays as black or gray background. I tried reset the settings, uninstall, view it on 1/4... nothing. I thought it was my footages but even using the templates videos that premiere gives you to practice can't see anything 
  • Adobe Premiere Pro version is 25.3

    I work on a windows
    - GPU: Geforce RTX 4060 laptop
    -13th Gen intel(r) Core(TM)
    -Ram: 32GB

    In this forum I uploaded the video of the issue.
