Bounce Mix offline makes longer bounce than 'online'

[GregX]

Hi, I've never seen this before: the 'offline bounce' is 3:32 minutes long, with almost a minute of silence at the end, but the online bounce, where you hear the song as it bounces, produces a correct 2:24 minutes long song, with no extra silence at the end. It uses the same selection region for both cases. There is no audio or automation after 2:32.

Nothing I do makes the offline bounce different than 3:32, even selecting four minutes, or two minutes, it always comes out as 3:32.

I've restarted Pro Tools, (ver 21.10.0 Windows), but that had no effect. Is there some setting or something I don't know about? Thanks.

How are you selecting the time of the bounce?

Do you have Link Timeline and Edit selection turned on?

If not, are you selecting the length of the bounce in the timeine or in the edit window?

Hi its2loud, I was selecting the area to bounce from the edit window, but had Link Timeline and Edit deselected. Now that I have selected it, everything works fine. I've experimented with the different selection methods you suggested, and I understand it much better now.

Thanks you so much for taking the time to help me out!
