Transcribe button greyed out (2025-12-28 18:13Z)

User (2025-12-29 06:12Z)

why does the 'transcribe in to out' grey out the transcribe button?

Agent (model default, mode Agent)

The "Transcribe in point to out point only" checkbox disables the Transcribe button if no in/out points are set in the sequence. Premiere Pro needs those markers to know what range to transcribe.

To fix:

  1. Set an in point (press I or click the in point button)
  2. Set an out point (press O or click the out point button)
  3. The Transcribe button should become active

If you want to transcribe the entire sequence, uncheck "Transcribe in point to out point only" and the button should enable.

This is a prerequisite check: the feature requires in/out points when that option is enabled.

I set an in to out point in my sequence, why does it say this

Agent (model default, mode Agent)

The error "The in out points set are invalid. Please ensure that in and out points lie within the sequence bounds" usually means:

  1. In/out points are outside the sequence bounds — The in point is before the sequence start, or the out point is after the sequence end.
  2. In point is after the out point — They’re reversed.
  3. Points are set on a different timeline — They’re on a different sequence or the source monitor instead of the Program Monitor/Timeline.

To fix this:

  • Make sure the sequence is active (click in the Timeline panel).
  • Set the in point (I) after the sequence start.
  • Set the out point (O) before the sequence end.
  • Ensure the in point comes before the out point.
  • If you set points in the Source Monitor, set them in the Timeline/Program Monitor instead.

Quick check:

  • Look at the Timeline ruler: the in/out markers should be within the sequence’s visible range.
  • If the sequence is empty or very short, ensure your points are within that range.

If it still fails, try clearing the in/out points (Ctrl+Shift+X or Cmd+Shift+X) and set them again directly in the Timeline.

shift ctrl O normally clears out point. now, it just causes my cursor to do a brief loading icon. any conflicting hotkeys? I have powertoys installed, but it's not currently running.

Agent (model default, mode Agent)

Ctrl+Shift+O is being intercepted by another app or Windows. Checking what might be capturing it:

Tool use: **codebase_search** • Searched codebase "PowerToys keyboard shortcuts configuration settings" • **10** results
File Lines
.specstory/.what-is-this.md L25-68
.config/config.json L6
.gitignore L125
.specstory/.what-is-this.md L29
.config/GetStructDir.ps1 L27-68
.config/GetStructDir.ps1 L33
.cursorindexingignore L3
Renders/ZipSeqArchv.bat L44
Renders/UnzipSeqArchv.bat L42
.specstory/.gitignore L4

Likely causes for Ctrl+Shift+O being intercepted:

  1. PowerToys may still be active — Even if not running, some modules can persist. Check:

    • Task Manager → look for PowerToys.*.exe processes
    • PowerToys Settings → Keyboard Manager → check if Ctrl+Shift+O is remapped

  2. Windows shortcuts — Ctrl+Shift+O can open bookmarks in some browsers or trigger other system actions.

  3. Other software — Check for:

    • Screen recording/streaming software (OBS, Streamlabs, etc.)
    • Gaming overlays (Discord, Steam, NVIDIA, etc.)
    • Clipboard managers
    • Other Adobe apps running

Quick fixes:

  • In Premiere Pro: Edit → Keyboard Shortcuts → search for "Clear Out Point" and verify the shortcut is still assigned, or reassign it.
  • Temporary workaround: Right-click the Timeline ruler → Clear Out Point, or use the button in the Program Monitor.
  • Check what's intercepting: Use a tool like SharpKeys or Windows' built-in shortcut checker to see what's capturing the key combo.

To test: Try Ctrl+Shift+O in Notepad. If it does something there, another app is intercepting it globally.

Should I help you check PowerToys settings or find an alternative way to clear the out point in Premiere?

ah, it's global, the loading pops up in cursor,too

Agent (model default, mode Agent)

Since it happens in Cursor too, it's a system-level hotkey conflict. Checking what's intercepting Ctrl+Shift+O:

Tool use: **run_terminal_cmd** • Run command: Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -like "*PowerToys*" -or $_.ProcessName -like "*powertoys*"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id, Path 
Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -like "*PowerToys*" -or $_.ProcessName -like "*powertoys*"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id, Path

Checking for other keyboard-intercepting software and Windows shortcuts:

Tool use: **run_terminal_cmd** • Run command: Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -match "AutoHotkey|SharpKeys|KeyTweak|Hotkey|Keyboard|Shortcut"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id 
Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -match "AutoHotkey|SharpKeys|KeyTweak|Hotkey|Keyboard|Shortcut"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id

The loading cursor suggests a system-level shortcut is being processed. Even if PowerToys isn’t running, Keyboard Manager settings can persist. Check:

  1. PowerToys Keyboard Manager (most likely):

    • Open PowerToys Settings
    • Go to Keyboard Manager
    • Click Remap a shortcut
    • Look for any entry using Ctrl+Shift+O and remove it

  2. Windows Accessibility/System shortcuts:

    • Settings → Accessibility → Keyboard → check for custom shortcuts
    • Settings → System → Clipboard (some clipboard managers use this combo)

  3. Browser extensions (if a browser is open):

    • Some extensions can capture shortcuts globally

  4. Quick test: Press Ctrl+Shift+O while no apps are focused (click the desktop first). If the loading still appears, it’s definitely a system-level shortcut.

Temporary workaround for Premiere: Use the menu: Sequence → Clear Out Point, or right-click the Timeline ruler.

Want help checking the PowerToys config file directly, or do you want to open PowerToys Settings to check Keyboard Manager?

it wasn't powertools (uninstalled) it wasn't obs, or elgato sound capture. what else could it be?

Agent (model default, mode Agent)

Checking for other common software that might intercept global shortcuts:

Tool use: **run_terminal_cmd** • Run command: Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -match "Discord|Steam|NVIDIA|AMD|Radeon|Logitech|Razer|Corsair|iCue|Synapse|ShareX|Greenshot|Lightshot|Clipboard|Ditto|ClipX|ClipMate|TeamViewer|AnyDesk|Parsec|VirtualBox|VMware|Hyper-V|WindowsTerminal|WSL"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id | Sort-Object ProcessName 
Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -match "Discord|Steam|NVIDIA|AMD|Radeon|Logitech|Razer|Corsair|iCue|Synapse|ShareX|Greenshot|Lightshot|Clipboard|Ditto|ClipX|ClipMate|TeamViewer|AnyDesk|Parsec|VirtualBox|VMware|Hyper-V|WindowsTerminal|WSL"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id | Sort-Object ProcessName

Checking Windows clipboard history and other system features:

Tool use: **run_terminal_cmd** • Run command: Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.MainWindowTitle -ne "" -or $_.ProcessName -match "clip|keyboard|shortcut|hotkey|input"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id, MainWindowTitle | Sort-Object ProcessName | Format-Table -AutoSize 
Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.MainWindowTitle -ne "" -or $_.ProcessName -match "clip|keyboard|shortcut|hotkey|input"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id, MainWindowTitle | Sort-Object ProcessName | Format-Table -AutoSize


ProcessName               Id MainWindowTitle

ApplicationFrameHost   24516 Settings
chrome                 27956 Projects - Google Chrome
Cursor                 32400 Transcribe button greyed out - 2025-12-28 ytshorts gigaproj - Cursor
Discord                17672 Friends - Discord

SystemSettings          3016 Settings
TextInputHost          18336 Windows Input Experience

Found a few candidates. Checking Discord and MSI Afterburner for global shortcuts:

Tool use: **run_terminal_cmd** • Run command: Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -match "Discord|MSI|GameInput"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id, Path 
Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -match "Discord|MSI|GameInput"} | Select-Object ProcessName, Id, Path

Check these:

  1. Discord — Global shortcuts:

    • Settings → Keybinds → check for any using Ctrl+Shift+O
    • Settings → Advanced → disable "Register global hotkeys" temporarily to test

  2. MSI Afterburner — Can have global shortcuts:

    • Settings → General → check "Enable hardware control and monitoring"
    • Look for any hotkeys assigned to Ctrl+Shift+O

  3. Windows Clipboard History (Win+V):

    • Settings → System → Clipboard → check if any clipboard-related shortcuts are enabled

  4. Chrome Extensions (if Chrome is running):

    • Some extensions can capture shortcuts globally
    • chrome://extensions/ → check for clipboard, productivity, or shortcut-related extensions

  5. Windows Input Experience / Text Services:

    • The TextInputHost process might be involved
    • Settings → Time & Language → Language → check for input method shortcuts

Quick test: Close Discord and MSI Afterburner, then try Ctrl+Shift+O again. If it works, re-enable them one by one to identify the culprit.

Most likely: Discord or MSI Afterburner. Check their hotkey settings first.
