Speed ramp makes my playback glitch and freeze. Even rendering in and out does the same thing. I even exported the video and still when I play back the exported video it freezes as if it exported the freeze... this is some serious issue that needs to get fixed ASAP.

i have an error when trying to speed up footage in adobe premiere pro can i have some help?

William Akana commented
This SIMPLE SOLUTION did it for me: When exporting, hit the button "Queue" instead of "Export" to load it into Media Encoder. Render it out there. This solved the issue from me. (Sped up footage no longer choppy on export--smooth as ice)

Like Nikolaos Tsaldaris said DISABLE HARDWARE ACCELERATED DECODING from Project Settings. It works quite well!

Same issue in 2021
I have had this issue for almost 2 years now waiting for a fix. I had this issue on my MacBook Pro, Windows PC. Same with Canon Footage or iPhone Footage. I tried everything from switching to other Codecs, Proxys, Windows reinstall, upgrading RAM, different GPU Drivers. Since Speedramping is becoming more and more important to me, im switching to DaVinchi, because there is nothing more left to do and Adobe doesn't seem to care. -

Hi, a video I found online to help with this speed/duration issue within Premier Pro CC 2020.

Major issue - doesn't just happen when speed ramping, but also shuttling at any speed beyond 100%! I just shelled out a lot of money for a new system so I can use CC 2020 and I have to downgrade to 2019 because of this. Hurry up Adobe and sort this out please!

Sadly still very much an issue a year later. How are these considered pro tools when they can't even do basic functions for a year?

Nikolaos' solution works!
Disable hardware accelerated decoding and try again.
Thanks man -

Allow me to add that even when the playback seems to be ok (don't understand what affects this, but restarting the program sometimes works), the export comes out choppy. So frustrating!!!!!!! Come on guys!

The fact that this glitch continues to be left unfixed is truly shocking. Who is running the Premiere ship over there??

I´ve been using 2019 version since day one of 2020 release. Impossible to work with speed changes. Compained several times in adobe suppoprt chats and forums Here is a little video clip describing the problem. I am so gonna publish this on youtube. It is enough. No more fancy features updates no one uses. Correct what once was good and now it is wrong.
