Default Re: Playback won't start at Timeline Selection Point

Was having the same issue today... FOUND THE SOLUTION by trial and error. I also thought I hit some button by mistake and it seems the "Insertion Follows Playback" button is the culprit. Needs to be unchecked. It is towards the top of the Edit Window under the pencil tool.

Or, if you're in Commands Focus Mode, the "N" key will toggle "insertion Follows Playback" on and off. Easy to hit the "N" key by mistake.

Folks go to the options menu, Down there check whether "Link Timeline and Edit selection" is ticked, if not enable it. Done!!!

Extremely late for this but I'm still using PT10 and once I unchecked Quickpunch under the Options tab, the timeline stopped jumping back to the start.

Yep old thread, this was/is an issue on the Mac. If Quickpunch is enabled without a track record enabled the cursor behaves like this. Turn off Quickpunch if you're not recording.

That would make it behave this way.
I assume that the edit insertion point doesn't move back to the start when you hit play?
Thanks for this! I had an issue. Wondering what the ****... Not even cross my mind

I know this is an old thread, but this happened to me today. I don't really know what caused this issued, but the solution was to turn ON Dynamic Transport, then turn it OFF. After that, operation functioned as normal.
