Bug Description
Happens on:
mixxx v1.11.0 (x64) build r3863
Ubuntu 12.04
Play control stops responding and track gets stuck on "playing" status, this can happen independently on either deck (1 or 2). I have not found the exact way of reproducing the bug, but seems to happen after setting/deleting hot cues (although not everytime an action is performed on one). The play control stays unresponsive on both GUI and external controller (Denon MC2000). Other controls on the same deck, such as pitch slider, hot cues, loop in/out/exit, EQs, etc. remain responsive. Play control unresponsiveness remains even after loading a different track on the affected deck, and it seems that the only way to regain control is to restart Mixxx.
I have not used Mixxx long enough without the MC2000 controller to say that this bug ocurrs without a controller too. MIDI debug shows normal MIDI messages for all buttons on the controller. This discards that the controller is sending play commands continuously.
Play button for both decks is mapped through XML file only, no controller-specific js method is called on play button down or up. However, engine.
This bug makes Mixxx unreliable for performing live.
It would be nice if you could test the latest master. The play button receives a lot of updates so the bug might be fixed without knowing it.
Have you managed to build Mixxx from source or do you need help?
