Description Wegwerf 2016-06-15 08:09:56 UTC
Once more the play/pause action has been lost. I noticed as I have this action mapped to one of my ShuttlePro hard keys. Only Play Zone and Pause are available. Pause is simply Pause, but does not toggle Play/Pause -- I tested that. So please bring back the previously existing Play/Pause action.

Strangely, the toolbar pause button does actually work as play/pause. In contrast, the ShuttlePro assignable Pause action really only does Pause. No Play. Nope. Nothing. Nada.

Reproducible: Always

I just tested git master with my Shuttle and it works for me. I have the "Play" action in the list that works as expected...

Jean-Baptiste, somehow I missed the play action despite trying to double-check. Next time, I will need to at least triple-check I guess. Whatever it was, some change did cause the previous configuration to revert the Play action assignment to the first action, that is the "timecode" input action. I did a git pull, recompiled, and finally found the Play action, which works as expected.

A final question before squashing this bug report: what is the first action (the one displaying the playhead timecode / project length) considered to do? Does anybody wants to assign it to a Shuttle hard key?
Comment 3 Jean-Baptiste Mardelle 2016-06-16 19:22:19 UTC
The playhead/length action allows to switch timecode between hh:mm:ss:ff and frame numbers. Not sure it works when used with a shuttle though..

Thanks for your quick reply! Would it make sense to suppress this action for the ShuttlePro key assignments?
