Another issue in preview player - Traktor Pro 4.1.

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello!

Recently I discovered another problem with previwe player: sometimes, when I try to quickly prelisten a song, and "jump" to different points of the song, the song plays normal/continuously from the begining. I can't associate this issue with anything when this happens, I can only say that it happened in different sets.

Some kind of solution that I found is to stop the song in the preview player and start the song again, wait a fiew seconds, and try again to jump trough song. I could interpret this as the song not loading properly/complete in the preview player, although the complete waveform appears. But this "solution" means lost time, time that is very precious when you are live during a set and you have to quickly choose the next song.

I hope I made myself understood :) Thanks!

Sometimes, when the GUI window is not in focus because you used the mouse on something else on your computer, clicking on anything in the GUI makes whatever you are adjusting jump to a faraway value. This is a known issue. The only workaround is to first click on something in the GUI that does nothing (like clicking in somewhere in the title box at the top) and after that do your adjustment.

Thanks for the answer, I didn't know about that, but I have to make the following clarifications:
- I don't use a mouse on my laptop, only touchpad;
- I am always with the TP4 software in full screen so I use only the software, nothing els oppend;
- the way I "jump" through the song in preview player is using the keyboard (I mapped a shortcut key for that)

Are the songs fully analyzed?

I make heavy use of the preview player and never encountered this problem.

Yes, all my collection is fully analyzed. With Traktor Pro 3 I had no such issue (same system configuration). But also with TP4 this problem appeared recently (maby from the last update TP 4.1.). I use previw player often too and such issue sometimes becomes annoying when I'm in a hurry.
