Timecode generator is broken and buggy

smh

It's a shame... This EPIC problem still there. Adobe doesn't give a **** about it. If Í drop a timecode on an Adjustment Layer, it will start with 01:00:00:00, unless you set it to 00:00:00:00, and your timeline is 00:00:00:00 too. Now I have to send HOURS of footages for scripting, and I'm ******* around on the net to get solution, and THERE IS NO SOLUTION! WTF!???

Timecode Generator works on Windows but on Mac OS there is no Timecode Available at all. Are You serious? I pay so much money for the CC and this Issue ist still not fixed. Shame on you Adobe!

I've had timecode issues ever since I started a job that cuts on Premiere last year. The worst for me is that as far as I can tell, there's no way to get the timecode display on the Timeline or Program Monitor to display the Time of Day timecode attached to the clip. The reason this is important is that it's way, way more efficient to type or paste the timecode I'm looking for there and jump to that spot, rather than scrub through the timeline looking at the TOD timecode in the timecode window. If you work on a show where producers are scripting from transcripts, this is pretty essential, and it's incredibly easy in Avid. In Avid you type in the timecode, hit return and the playhead jumps there. Not being able to do this in Premiere is a serious hinderance to professional workflows.

I'm still having this issue in Premiere 22.2.0. Incredibly annoying and debilitating for professional workflows. I'm an editor for high end commercials. Lately producers have been asking me what I think about switching to Resolve. I gotta say the type of bugs that constantly seem to come out of nowhere in Premiere are a reason to switch, but the timecode generator error really is Little League. If Resolve catches up on one or two more issues I'm switching. I've alreay given it a good test drive, and coming from Avid it's evident that Da Vinci has a much better grasp on what's important in postproduction pipelines.

Hi,

TC the newest version 14.3.1 Build 45 is still buggy! Adobe, please fix, such a essential feature needs to work!!! Even under GPU acceleration! It can´t be that users with state of the art hardware have to think everytime they want to use a tool, if it´s working or not! Can´t you understand, that we´re all people with normal needs? No fancy dancy extra thing! We want to go home after a working day without thinking the whole night how to build workarounds to the problems you make us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So: fix it ASAP please!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe that something so FUNDAMENTAL such as a timecode feature is COMPLETELY not working in Premiere. If applied as a plugin on my timeline it will not display AT ALL and if applied during export it is always OFF no matter what I try.

Unbelievable!!!
