Footage glitching in Premiere

This is similar to a previous discussion I started which was tagged as After Effects, but I wanted to reach out now for Premiere as the issue is much more prominent in it: Footage Glitch in both After Effects and Premiere

I work for a video game developer and I am always having problems with game footage glitching in Premiere. The source footage does not glitch itself, only in the source window and the timeline, and if I don't "fix the glitch" it also exports that way as well. I get these glitches with almost every clip. I "fix" it by replacing the footage with a different video file and then replace it back again. This works but will then start glitching again soon.

Some Notes:

  1. With my previous post about this, some thought it was a media cashe issue but even if I clean the unused cash and delete the cashe files, the problem persists.
  2. I use Bandicam to record our game footage. AVI format with Xvid, 30fps at either full HD or sometimes 4k (issue happens in both HD and 4k)
  3. I've tried capturing our game footage in various codecs including Motion JPEG, but there is no difference. Here is a list that Bandicam offers: H264 (NVIDIA NVENC), H264 (CPU), Xvid, MPEG-1, Motion JPEG, YV12, RGB2

Here are my computer specs:

CPU: i7-7800x

Ram: 32GB

GPU: GeForce GTX 1080
Record Drive: Recording and working off of an external 1TB SSD via USB 3

Premiere Version 13.0

I am at a complete loss right now and dealing with this issue costs me so much more time. A task that would normally take me 1 hour, takes me 3-4 hours.

Any help would be appreciated!

I brought my hard drive home with me last night and the footage also glitched on my computer as well. So at least that tells me that the PC is not the issue.
