Problems with playback speed (Too fast) in Premiere Pro (Imported files from Nikon D4S and D810)

Hi. I have installed Premiere Pro CC and I imported video files from my Nikon D4s and D810 cameras. During playback, the speed is too fast, and I cannot understand a word due to the speed. Why is this? Is the program mis-interpreting the fps rate? I have tried to alter the speed with shift+j or l, but the basic speed for the clips are just wrong. Anyone with tips for a frustrated new user of this program? It was not an issue with Premiere Elements or Finalcut.

    I changed the input from the sound card to none, and that did the work!! Thanks

    I had the same problem just now, playback seemed to be playing frame by frame and looked laggy.

    I tried your fix and it worked, all I had to do was disable and enable my sound playback on windows, nothing really to do with premiere pro?..Wierd bug

    OSX & 50Fps Captured / Shot footage:

    With your film already loaded in the Media Browser:

    > Media Browser  > Right click your film >Speed/Duration > type in 50% & Enter...your film plays back at the captured 50fps with the correct audio too.

    If you also need the audio in slow mo then:

    > Media Browser  > Right click your film >Modify >Audio Channels >Interpret Footage >Assume this frame rate >in this box enter the desired frame rate..so a 50fps captured & then set from default 50fps (correct) to 25fps will be half speed & slooooow etc etc.

    I hope this helps...works great for me.

          In makes no freaking sense, but yes changing the Audio Hardware Default Input to No Input fixed my fast playback issue too!

          I wish Adobe would fix this bug.


          This also solved the issue for me.  Definitely a bug that needs to be fixed!

            ‌Check your sequence settings, of both your clips and the sequence, I suspect the sequence frames per second rate most likely does not match your imported clips.  Usually when you create a sequence the program will use the clip parameters of the first clip pulled to the TL to set up your sequence, and warn you if any new one does not match. Do you think you recorded at 30 and actually recorded at 24? I believe the 810 can record at 24, 30 or 60 frames per second.  There is not just one recording rate.  24 is cinematic, 30 more typical of video and 60 fast action, or used to slow motion down in playback.

            You can change the playback speed of an individual clip by right clicking on it and choosing Speed/Duration, but you got bigger issues.

            Thanks for your answer. However, the time in seconds during the playback is too fast as well? So its just that the playback plays the files too fast? I have been trying to fix this since yesterday now.
