I doubt they consider it an issue.</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43019 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 22:14:51 +0000 WarLightUK 43019@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Thanks very much chuckengels... Much appreciated...</p> <p>I hope Adobe is aware of these issues... They are minor problems for most people perhaps but for those who have to use their software day in day out, such issues make a difficult job harder...</p> <p>Cheers</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43016 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 21:50:06 +0000 chuckengels 43016@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Spoke too soon, found one of his posts.</p> <p>It has to do with using Windows Sniper</p> <p><a href="http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b722b8/11" rel="nofollow">http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b722b8/11</a></p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43015 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 21:48:21 +0000 chuckengels 43015@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I tried to find it before posting but couldn't, just remember that he had a workaround.</p> <p>There was another program that he ran to keep Premiere running in the background, can't remember the name of it though.  If you post on either the muvipix forum or the Adobe Premiere Elements forum he will answer you fairly quickly in most cases.</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43009 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 20:43:06 +0000 WarLightUK 43009@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Thanks chuckengels...</p> <p> Would you have a link to Robert Johnson's post by any chance?</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43007 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 19:38:39 +0000 chuckengels 43007@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> There is a workaround for this that Robert Johnson posted at Muvipix and on the Adobe forum.</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-42998 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 10:00:21 +0000 WarLightUK 42998@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <blockquote> <p>Correction... It was 1.5 not PPro 2.0 which worked fine in the background...</p> <p>Hi, When I am working on a project, I sometimes need to open other applications, go to other folders or simply have a webpage up on my second monitor and read stuff while expecting PPro to keep playing. This was possible with PPro 2.0. Now PPro CS3 stops playing the footage, be it in the source window or timeline, as soon as I click on something else. Basically, no playback when PPro window is inactive... I am getting a bit annoyed as most of the time I need to play my footage in PPro while typing notes/script etc in another application. Any ideas how to sort this out?
