I'm not sure what you're saying exactly, Hugo.

When you switch from timeline to sceneline, the sceneline will display the scene your CTI playhead was in when you switched modes.

When you switch from sceneline to timeline, the scene displayed will be the location of your CTI playhead on the timeline.

If there's something other than that going on, please provide us a more detailed description of what yoou're doing and what you're seeing when you do it.

My situation is different.

When I change from timeline to sceneline or viceversa from sceneline to timeline the CTI doesn´t correspond to the same situation.

I tried different situations and the general comment is that the response is erratic.

My PC is a Dell XPS 8300 with 12 GB of memory so I suppose it doesn´t depends on the hardware.

If yoy want more detailed information please give me an email to send you the printscreens of the different situations.

You should be able to attach a screen cap right to your forum post, Hugo. Just click the camera icon along the top of the reply window.

Steve I added a sequence of images to show my problem:

In the first image (captura009) on the timeline I selected an image at minute 12 from 22 of the movie.

In the second (captura010) I changed to the sceneline an as you can see the correct position of the CTI doesn´t appear.

In the tirth image I tried to scroll further on the sceneline but at minute 8 I am on the final and can´t go further.

If a that moment i chango to the timeline and back to sceneline I can go to the final of the movie in the sceneline.

But never is there a match between the sceneline and the timeline.

If you need further details I will send them gladly.

Regards

Hugo

No, you've done an excellent job of explaining the problem, Hugo.

I'm not sure why this is happening.

Try, in Timeline view, clicking to select a clip on the timeline and then switch to Sceneline. Does the Sceneline center on the clip you selected on the timeline? Or does selecting a clip on your video track help the Sceneline find the CTI's position?

If not, I'm stumped. I don't know how it's orienting its views. Sorry.

I tried once again doing what you are asking in your first question; changing from timeline to sceneline after selecting a clip and the answer is clearly NO. By saying selecting, I tried both options: only selecting no matter where the CTI is positioned and second positioning the CTI on the selected scene. The result is the same.

I don´t understnd clearly your second question on the selecting a clip on the track and helping to find the CTI position...

It surprise me that nobody else came with the same problem, am I doing something wrong or is there a problem with muy installation?.

Beside of this problem I am making this movie ( a family project for the 70th annivesary of my wife) without other problems until now so my goal is finishing it without further problems.

Regards and thanks for your disposition to solve the problem

Maybe you're the only one who's found this problem because you're the only one looking for it, Hugo. People usually work in either Timeline or Sceneline mode -- few switch back and forth between them.

But it definitely seems to be legitimate strangeness in the program's behavior.

Glad to hear that otherwise the program is working well for you.

I must be missing something here (perhaps because it's late evening). All three screenshots show the CTI slap bang in the middle of Per3_93.png at 11:59;13. I can't see what is wrong.

Hi Hugo,

In all three screenshots CTI is pointing the same time viz. 00;11;59;13 and same frame is shown in the program monitor. So i dont see the problem here. Do you mean to say that the thumbnail of the clip is not displayed by default in the sceneline panel and you had to actually scroll. If that is the case then we can get that resolved in the next version of PRE and by default it should display the clip above which CTI is there. By the way if you click on the CTI (the one which is at the bottom of Program Monitor) that clip comes in view in the sceneline panel. Please let us know if i got your problem correctly.

thanks,

Tahseen

You got the problem correctly, but in addition I think that the fact that you can´t scroll on the sceneline to the end is something that should also be corrected.

For example in the tirth picture I reached the end of the scrollbar on the sceneline and only after switching to the timeline and back to the sceneline I could go further on the sceneline.

I worked for a time with premiere pro who has no sceneline but the bridge is a good substitute where you can rearrange the scenes and after renaming them importing into premiere pro in the perfect order.

I tried to do that in PRE togetther with the organizer but couldn´t obtain the same result, maybe I am doing something wrong but surely the organizer is minded for other things.

thanks

Hi Hugo

I tried to reproduce this issue, and the issue reproduced for me.

Reported to Adobe, and lets hope it gets fixed in the next versions.

I also get this problem (PE10, Windows 7, and latest Nvidia display driver in case that was the problem). Not being able to move to the end of the Sceneline is really annoying - repeatedly switching beteen Timeline and Sceneline does eventually resolve the problem, but this is a bug that should be fixed.
