Playhead move automations
Playhead Move Automations
In Premier, make a way to easily move the playhead a specific amount in timeline, say 1 second, or 30 frames, without manually dragging or hitting the arrow keys multiple times. Make it easy to move it a specific amount, like adding + 30 in the time code to move it 30 frames exactly (maybe select it and enter +30). Ideally there would be a keyboard shortcut available for this.

Hi Peter, you can make these adjustments by typing into a numpad.
ie:
+30 and Enter will move the playhead forward 30 frames
+30.0 and Enter will move the playhead forward 30 seconds
-2.0 and Enter will move the playhead backwards 2 secondsIf a clip is selected the same mathematical values move the clip forward or backward too.
Selecting a trim point (say the out point or a roll edit point) will also behave in sync with it's position moving based on the value and if there's enough footage handles to move that amount.
