Why is Playback Range not working for me?

(1/2) > >>

haggis999:
I've just tried using the Playback Range tag in MC 27 (running under Windows 10) to play a predefined A - B section of an MKV video file, but it has had no effect. The video always starts at the beginning. I had the same result setting Playback Range for a FLAC audio file. All my media files are stored on a Synology NAS.

I was following the instructions on https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Playback_Range and the chosen cues were within the range of the media files. For example, I set the PlayBack Range tag to 1:20-4:00 (i.e. 1min 20sec to 4min 0sec) for a video lasting over 2 hours.

What might I be doing wrong?


EDIT:  A test of a .cue file that contained the setting INDEX 01 05:00:00 (to start playing an audio file 5mins after the start) also played the music from the beginning, so my setup of MC does not seem to like any cue points.

My post has met with no response after four days  :(

Perhaps I'm being impatient, but is there no one out there who can offer advice on using Playback Range?

Matt:
I just entered  1:20-4:00 for one of my APE files and the duration updated and that's exactly the range it plays.

So I'm not sure.

Hi Matt,
Is it possible for you to run another check with MKV and FLAC files?

Matt:
It seems like MKV and FLAC work fine as well.
