Hi Robert,
I still can't reproduce this problem. Can you give some precise steps to create
a project where I'll be able to hear the problem?

thanks,
David.

Hi Robbie
I'm experiencing the same problem but only if the host is Wasapi.
The playback is shortened by a fixed amount.
The only possibility to play the whole selection with this host is to
loop it (shift+space) or to change to another host.
Therefore, you should try with other hosts in order to see if it's the
same issue.

Hi Robbie,
uploading an example sounds like a good idea,

David.

Hi David!
Yes it's baffling me too. I've never experienced this phenomenon before,
even
with this setup. I started noticing it when working on a project I created a

few days ago. Now it's affecting all projects, so I gather it must be
program-related rather than project-related.
When I play a track without selecting any audio I hear its full length.
Pressing j shift-k results in the last tenth of a second being omitted from

playback. However, the length given in the selection toolbar is the correct

one. I can upload an example if you like

Cheers! Robbie

Hi Robbie,
I haven't a clue what's going on.
If audacity was omitting the last tenth of a second of everything that it
played back, would that fit all the symptoms?
Carrying on the your example of the word audacity in a track. If the word is

right at the end of the track, then if you play the track, do you hear the
end
of the word?

David.

Hi David!
I'm experiencing this in all current projects that contain multiple tracks.
I
can't reproduce it in a single track project.
Regardless of the length of the selection, roughly a tenth of a second is
omitted by playback from the right selection boundary. Cut preview includes

that fraction. Play up to right boundary omits it, while play from right
boundary plays from the true boundary.
Say I have the word Audacity in a track. If I play the track with out
selecting the audio, I hear the full word. When I select the audio from
start
to finish, playback only gives me Audacit, with the final y missing. When I

cut or amplify it however, all of the audio is affected.

Cheers! Robbie

Hi Robbie,
can you give a few more details so that I can try and replicate the
problem.
1. Does is occur is there is only a singe track.
2. If I selected say 10 seconds of audio, then roughly how much more audio
gets affected? More than then a second?
3. Does it depend where in the audio you select the time range? That is
Beginning/middle/end?
4. What editing is affected? Cut/Delete/An effect?

David.

Hi!
I'm experiencing a problem with selection playback. When according to
playback
a selection has been correctly adjusted, the editing affects more audio than

was played back. This is also reflected by cut preview, which leaves out
more
than playback suggests. Can anyone help? I'm using Audacity 2.1.1 with JAWS
16
on Windows 8.1.

Cheers! Robbie
