Hi,

When I press the shortcut for "go to selected clip end" the cursor goes just one frame before the very end of the clip like this :

It was not like this before I think it appeared after the april update

How can I fix this ?

***UPDATE***

It was determined that this is a behavior update and NOT a bug. However, i'm keeping the Report link in case some users wanted to up-vote for a feature.

It looks like this is a bug. I was able to recreate it.

However, if you right click on the timeline's work area and select "Show audio time units", the behavior seems to be corrected.

I have filed a bug report, please upvote: "go to select clip end" bug: Goes one frame before clip's end – Adobe video & audio apps

Kevin-Monahan Can you please help us out with that?

I agree with Meg, I have never used this shortcut before, and it is better to use "Go to Next Edit Point" Instead.

Redcritimo marked Christians answer as correct but it is not! It is NOT A BUG it is by DESIGN.

I'd like to reinforce Ann Bens' comment that this is not a bug. The selected clip end (the last frame of the clip) is represented correctly by the position of the playhead.

makes sense, a bit.

excuse me if I bother you with one more question to better understand how it works: why does it behave differently when “show audio time units” is selected, and thus moves exactly to the end of the frame and not one frame earlier?

So if Christian has show audio units selected he can't edit anything ??

Been a few years.. but fired up cs6 and put in a mov file ( had to download QT to do it , sheesh ) and went to audio units.. and yep, there's no frames at all indicated.. so I guess that's basically to see where you're at so you can make note about timecode and go to audition or something to work on sound stuff.

Interesting stuff..

hehe, how can something so simple be so complicated...

it should be noted that the 'cut' you make is actually on the needle that's not a needle....

Actually, it’s exactly as it should be where to the left is earlier and to the right is later.

The blue vertical line shows exactly where an “add edit” action will take place.

yep. I think that was the whole point of the poster's question. The behavior changed apparently ( as per above post). Meg dog was saying use up down arrows to go to 'next edit point' ( meaning back or forward one clip or cut or whatever ).

So in THIS CASE we are now one frame BEFORE where you would typically do something like " insert clip" or common edit things between clips. It is now one frame BEFORE that point.

duh... maybe I don't get the question cause I'm an idiot, but the poster now knows that it is set up this way now so that you can add something like a keyframe or out point or whatever on that last frame...

Thanks for helping explain !

I guess if in doubt you can always use left right arrow key to jump back and ahead one frame and look at program monitor to see where you're at exactly.

Maybe this graphic with dashed pink lines drawn over the screen grab from the original post will help.

The horizontal blue line that extends to the right from the Playhead (circled in pink) represents the width of the frame along the Time Ruler.
The blue vertical line that extends down from the Playhead is the left edge of the frame.
The rectangle formed by those two lines (indicated with diagonal dashed lines inside the Clip Boundary of the A clip, C0313.MP4) represents the current frame being shown in the Program tab.

Not a bug: by design.

Behavior changed with 13.0.2.

Why though. Since "Go to select clip start" does not behave the same way?

I'm just guessing but even though it's only one frame the 'sound' for that frame extends to the tail of that frame... the end of the frame.

Use Go to Next Edit Point - Keyboard shortcut: Down Arrow

Behavior might have changed.

The cursor is now on the last frame and not on the first frame of the next clip.
