Cockos Incorporated Forums - View Single Post - Rulers and timecode in REAPER are incorrect

Here's the source of the bug just detailed in my previous message.

The Set 0:00 to edit cursor command in Project Settings is NOT actually setting the 0 to the cursor position. It is first TRUNCATING the cursor position to 3 digits after the decimal point and setting the 0 point there.

Time in REAPER is represented internally by a double-precision floating point number which has 15 to 17 digits of precision. The truncated time can be hundreds or thousands of samples depending on your sample rate.

This is a BUG and needs to be fixed.
