Re:MC 3 Hanging

There is an option in it somewhere that controls the position indicator. It defaults to "return to start" but that is changeable to "start from last stop". I leave mine at return to start, and when I need a new start place, I simply click the time line and the pointer moves to that point and it becomes my new start point.
I'm not familiar with the versions of MC 3 and back....
It sounds like you're saying that your version is hanging up... and will not start again w/o a program restart. Can you click on the PLAY button with the mouse to get it started?
You also say you use the spacebar to stop and start the playback. I think (I might be wrong) but I think there is an option to use or not use that ( a check box) located somewhere in the setup/options menus.
If you have those options changed, that would explain it. If it worked well previously, and suddenly started acting different, I would suspect that something was altered in the options menu.
If nothing else works...... try a system restore, to the point in the past where it was working OK. It is also possible that your computer grabbed some sort of upgrade that messed with MC3 in some way.
