    Default Playback doesn't start on selected measure after update

    Hi,

    Since i updated to 6.1, playback is a little wonky. I'll select a measure to start from and it starts about 8 or 16 bars earlier. Makes checking an arrangement a little tedious.

    Thanks for any insight.

    Does this occur always, and from any measure? I know that often, when I click on the first bar of a Coda section, the player will start from the preceding bar. Once I did notice it started several measures before that, but this hasn't happened again. (Note: When posting a tech question, it's always helpful to tell the developers which Mac & OS version you're working from, and maybe upload a song file so they can look at the code.)
    There's two kinds of mistakes you can play: The ones you notice, and the ones somebody else might notice.

    Dale, yes, sorry. I'm on a macbook air running 10.7.

    Dflat - interesting. I just closed the editor and tried it and it started on the right measure. Never needed to close the editor before this update so I guess I'll just need to do that from now on. Thanks!

    ETA - Always starts on m 1 when I select that. Just happens in the middle of the chart.

    Thanks for your information, we will have a look into this and hopefully fix it in the next update.

    I think I have seen this but I cannot remember when, so it might have been fixed, but if you see it again, let us know. Thanks DaleMac.

    Well I guess I haven't generated much new work since the last update. Just checked again and the bug IS in the edit mode - never starts playing on the measure you click. [iRB Version 6.1 (8200); iMac OSX 10.7.5] Since you can't close the Editor until you save, this does indeed make previewing quite tedious. Thanks for bringing this to our attention MissCast.

    Yes, it's a bit of a pain. Thanks for taking the time to look into it, DaleMac ;-)
