Question

Marker Panel not showing markers on source monitor timeline - possible bug?

  • March 16, 2022

Setup: Main timeline open in one timeline tab. Source timeline open in source monitor and another timeline tab in source monitor mode.

 

Problem: The marker panel only shows timeline markers from the source timeline if program focus is on the Source Monitor tab . The marker panel does not show the markers when program focus is on the source timeline tab which is in source monitor mode.

 

Markers display fine on all timeline tabs and source monitor. Markers also display in marker tab when program focus is on the source monitor tab.

 

Documentation: Screenshot below

 

Troubleshooting steps taken: Opened source timenline in regular timeline tab/mode and markers show up in marker panel as expected.

 

System info:

Premiere Version: 22.2.0 (Build 128)

OS: Win 10 Pro

Hi, malten,

Thanks for writing in. I hope you are well. I think I understand your issue. I tried to reproduce your error as follows:

  • I created markers in a sequence. The markers in the Markers panel appeared as I made them.
  • The same goes with a second sequence loaded into the Source Monitor. Markers in the panel appear as expected.
  • When I click on the Source Monitor, the markers for the Source Monitor appear in the Markers panel.
  • When I click on the Timeline represented in the Source Monitor, markers appear in the Markers panel.
  • When I click on the main timeline, the markers for the Program Monitor appear in the Markers panel.

You say that in your case, when you click on the Timeline represented in the Source Monitor, the Markers do not appear in the Markers panel. Is that correct? If so, I'm sorry that I cannot reproduce that issue.

 

You may be doing something that I am not in setting this up. I typically do not edit in this fashion, but some people edit sequences from the Source Monitor, as a rule, so your issue is concerning. Can you try this issue in a brand new project as a test? I would try next to see if this is an application bug or a project-specific one.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Dear Kevin,

 

sorry for getting back to you so late, the email notification ended up in my spam folder. Thanks for taking the time to address this.

 

To answer your question: I think you understood my problem correctly and took the right steps, however just to clarify: I drag the second/source sequence into the source monitor and then, via the little wrench icon, select Open Sequence in Timeline, so that it opens in a timeline with the (Source Monitor) indication behind the sequence name in the timeline panel. When I do this, and have that timeline in focus, either no markers or the markers of the other open timeline, which is not in source monitor mode, show up in the marker panel. I can't quite decipher which happens when.

 

I can recreate the issue in a brand new project on the 2022 and 2021 versions.

 

Also, because I forgot to mention it in my original post: : I do have some third party plugins installed on the 2022 install (Excalibur, PostNotes, Find n Replace Toolbox), however I have no plugins on the 2021 install, so I don't think this is the issue.

 

 

Hope this helps.

 

Best,

Malte
