Preview MIDI function on Windows doesn't work same as on macOS

  • Device model : ThinkPad L16 Gen 1 AMD Ryzen™ 7 PRO 7735U Prozessor
  • Version of operating system : Windows 11 Pro 24H2
  • Version of djay : 5.x.x
  • Hardware/controllers used : Mixtour Pro, Traktor Control X1, Numark Omnicontrol

Summary of the issue:

In the Windows version, the preview function via midi mapping does not work in the same way as in the Mac version.
If you map the preview function to a button on a controller (Mixtour Pro, Traktor Control X1, Numark Omnicontrol), you can start the preview mode. All good so far.
However, if you then want to continue browsing during the preview, the focus is no longer in the track list, but in the playlist selection on the left.
Surely that shouldn’t be the case?

I noticed this some time ago. So it has nothing to do with the current version of DJay.

Hi @MichaFalki, thanks for the details about your setup and the issue - this is very helpful! I have forwarded this to the engineering team for further review. I’ll report back here when I have news. Thanks!

Sorry, I meant Traktor Control X1.
But it doesn’t really matter what kind of controller you do it with.
