Hello,
When I switch a clip from SMPTE to timeline all transport settings (loop,bounce etc.) are restored to default state

Arena 6.1.1 on Win 10

Yes, as the SMPTE transport doesn't have these options we don't keep them around.
I guess you'd like to have them?

Could you describe your use case where this would be useful for you?
Thanks!

Hi,
when I have SMPTE clips, in case of problems with LTC or stutters, as soon as the clip is chased by ltc I switch to timeline to have a perfectly smooth playback.
In this case the clip continue to play (in fact is in "continue" mode even if "restart" is checked) but in loop mode, so I have to switch manually to "play once" to be sure that it stops at the end.

All of this because I cannot have a very smooth playback when chasing to ltc is involved; tried a lot of different sound cards, buffers, ltc sources, but with certain kind of clips (very slow movements) there is always little, very annoying, stutters.
On the other hand from version 6 timeline playback is perfect.

I often use your OSC remote software to trigger clips with ltc, but I would like to have the option to do it directly in Arena.
In fact I think that a preference to trigger the clip as soon as spmte offset is reached would be a very good option…

Thank you

Stefano
