Default Spot Mode not working as advertised

Here's a weird one. When I am in spot mode and click on an audio clip, instead of a spot dialog box coming up that allows me to enter a time code or select the original time code stamp, the selected clip is automatically moved to the beginning of the session. Anybody have any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks!-Dave

Default Re: Spot Mode not working as advertised

just tested. mine is working ok in 2021.6
that sounds like when a file contains no timestamp metadata.
is it definitely there ?
View Menu/Clip/Original Timestamp
or could it be out of range of the session timeline ?

Sounds like Options > Auto-Spot Clips is enabled?

That's it! I've never used that option for anything and am working off someone else's pre-made template. Thanks so much for your help.
