thanks Taky for the explanation about mgp and avi files So, what do you recommend to edit mpeg2 files with my Premiere? Do you think that CS3 may solve the problem? I also think that my PC is not enough for the extra effort to support mpeg files thay you talk about (home pc, Pentium 2.8 MHz, 512 RAM).

Every single frame from the video is a complete frame. MPEG-2 deploys inter-frame compression which takes Premiere extra effort to re-construct a single frame when you scrub the timeline. Therefore, Premiere is much happier editing AVI files instead of MPEG. CS3 can handle editing MPEG-2 as it indexes the file during import. MPEG-2 is a delivery format. It's not ideal to edit MPEG-2. However, for HDV, it's unavoidable to edit MPEG-2 unless you have a third party HDV codec such as Edius, Cineform or Matrox.

Your description sounds very much as if you don't have your timeline zoomed in sufficiently. If zoomed in sufficiently you can easily move the CTI as little as one frame at a time. Is it possible that is all it is?
