Tracks don't return to the first cue point after ending (despite the setting)

[DJ_Big_Blender]

Hey there,

→ See this video

Situation:

• When a track is loaded from the library, it automatically jumps to the First Cue or Start Cue (depending on the setting: General > Jump to Cue Point).
• After a track has ended, it automatically returns to the beginning.
• But it just goes all the way back to the start of the track, not to the First Cue or Load Cue.

That seems like a bug to me.

And here’s my new suggestion for an additional option: combining the Start Cue with the Earliest Cue Point.

If you like it, please give it a vote!

Suggestion for combination Start Cue & Earliest Cue Point (1-8)

Hi to all Super Users! This suggestion concerns the Load setting in djay (found under: Settings > General > Song Loading > Jump to Cue Point). See this video. In words: Currently, when a user loads a track in djay, these load settings determine where the playhead starts. The available options are: Off Start Cue Cue Point 1 Earliest Cue Point (1–8) My suggestion is to introduce a fifth option to these Load Settings: a combination of Start Cue & Earliest Cue Point. Let’s call it: Earliest …

Hi @DJ_Big_Blender, I believe this is currently expected behavior as that setting is for “Song Loading” and in this scenario the song is not re-loading. However, you do make a valid point and this does make sense. I’ve passed this onto the dev team for consideration. Thanks!

It’s a small thing, but it shouldn’t be too hard to apply that same setting to a reload as well.

In case you want or need to play the same track again, it’s better if it’s reloaded to the correct point. This also makes it easier to monitor the loading behavior.
