I've never used time code, but if the needle is jumping,
you might want to adjust the weight on the tone arm.
Hey. Got today pair PLX1000 and pair rekordbox timecode vinyls. Have anyone got problem needle jumping on timecode? I tested on real vinyl that my tone arm has set right and it was i can do what ever and it doesnt jump. But with this timecode it jumps even when just doing basic back cue!!! Are the timecodes like this?

I tryed and didnt help. But the thing is with regular vinyl its 100% perfect i can even do super heave scratch movement and it didnt jump. I guess i just need to stick with relative mode on timecode :/ so needle jump doesnt matter....
The grooves on the timecode may be a different depth than battle records you're used to, you may need to adjust it a bit.
Sorry to hear your having problems my friend but could you explan if this is this happening on both turntables with the vinyls or just one turntable? Is it a problematic vinyl press and the other is fine? What are your needles like with alignment to the groove on the headshell? Are they free from dust and grime and show a clean signal?
How have you eliminated the vinyl issue??
I use recordbox vinyl just fine with no issues :) but as pluse says they may have a shallower groove to adjust to.
