Play command issue

Hi everyone.

I use foobar to play tracks for theatre plays. Usually I select the track from the playlist with keyboard arrows and once the cursor is over the track, I press <Enter> to play it via shortcuts.

A month ago I changed my laptop and downloaded latest version of FB2K. The problem is 'Play' command has a subtle but important change:

  • When status is 'playing':
    IF cursor is over played track: Play command plays the track from beginning.
    ELSE Play command plays the track where the cursor is
  • When status is 'stopped': Play command plays the track where the cursor is
  • When status is 'paused': Play command resume the playback of paused track, no matter where the cursor is. This behavior should be for Play/pause command instead, just like older versions of FB2K.

I've tried different configurations of "Playback follows cursor" and "Cursor follows playback" with no results.

Anyone knows a way to reverse this?
Is this a bug or just a change?
Where can I get an older version?

Im using foobar version 1.3.17 on Windows 10.
Shortcuts involved:
Spacebar: Play/pause
Enter: Play

Thanks!

Stop mapping Enter to random commands. Enter by default works as one would expect and how you want it to work.
