Default insertion follows playback not working

Any thoughts on why "insertion follows playback" suddenly stopped working? I have deleted my PT preferences and still have the same problem.

So, do I need to re-installl?

Thanks

Welcome to the community.

Well, you don't give any information about your system, nor how PT behaves. If you're sure insertion follows playback is enabled, I'll guess that an unwanted pre-roll is enabled.

Is the indicated option for "insertion follow playback" lit up on the button under the tools?
What is your playback mode (see the transport)?

If you post a picture of your edit window, it's usually easy to tell if something got clicked (the playhead/playline changes color, etc.) to a different mode.

Pt.jpg

Pro Tools 10 running under OS10.7.5 This is the first hiccup I have had since late 2012. Video and audio stored on an external firewire drive.

I'm also running 4.15 macOS 10.13 High Sierra on the same laptop but the problem began before using two operating systems.

I am aware of the "insertion follows playback" button and changing it does no good.

Thanks

You have dynamic transport on. Turn that off.

Also make sure the following is checked in Preferences:

There is a bug if you have "quick-punch" engaged it doesn't work.

Thanks Eric, you nailed it!

Working fine now. I seldom actually record since I'm usually sweetening video or doing sound design. Recently, I started using a bus to send my mix to an audio track instead of the customary "bounce to disk". That way I can watch picture as I print. (Makes me feel more comfortable)

I probably engaged "quick punch" by accident.

I appreciate your help!

Just been wrestling with this on my PT 10 system here too. Driving me crazy. Not sure how I've never encountered this before in my 6 years of using PT10 - I use Quickpunch all the time - but thanks!!!
