Title: A-B Repeat Audio Playback
Post by: GPeaslee on September 03, 2013, 11:37:36 am
Does the new MC 19 have an A-B repeat function where you can select only part of a song to repeat during playback? As a musician, I use this function very often on an old DVD/CD player.

Where are the start and stop times entered? It would be much easier to somehow mark the start and stop points during playback. On my CD player, there is a Repeat A-B button which when pushed marks the start point and then marks the end point when pushed again.

Sorry GPeaslee, I didn't notice you were a new user.

These are entered either in Action Window > Tag, or in a file list column Playback Range.  For the Tag Action Window, add the field Playback Range (from the upper left of this window, there is a pull-down menu).  In the file list, add the Playback Range column by right-clicking any header and selecting from the list of fields (and the column will appear adjacent to the column you right-clicked).

F2 to edit in a file list, or click-to-edit a value in the Tag Action Window.

I agree - it would be nice to have a better user interface for setting A-B points.

Thanks for the clarification, MrC. I hope you will consider adding an easier way to do this in a future version of MC.

I'm just a user like you.  JRiver reads all the threads, so they are aware of the request.
