Not BUG Cubase 5 32 bit -Mute+Solo at same time

Cubase
#1

I have to assume this is a bug, as I cannot for the life of me think of a reason why mute and solo are on at the same time. After I got my project in that state, clicking mute / solo seems to have gone wonkies.

I have included a picture as proof showing both mute and solo on.

I have also included a video to show what happens if you click group mute or solo.

I have had this before but sadly, I cannot produce this in a new project as I have no clue under which cercumstances this happens. It does only seem to happen though when I use group folders.

Sadly undo does not affect clicking mute/solo, as I have had this before and if I had remembered the order of clicking I could have undone it by reversing the actions.

But most importantly, does any one know how to reset this?

For some reason, when clicking the avi link, media player has a problem.
Please right click and save the avi to your computer, double clicking then works fine.

Known issue. Toggle the global mute and solo buttons to return to normal behavior.

#4

Do you meanthe |m| and |s| buttons?
If so, I have already tried that.
The ‘Miriam’ track remains muted.

#5

The global m&s buttons at the top of the track list or all the way to the left of the mixer.

Ok, I have figured it out.

The mute button controls the Mute automation.
The track with the problem was the only track that had 1/2 bar that was muted.
In the screenshot, if I move to just over bar 271, mute button goes off.
If I unclick Read, mute/solo work fine.
If I click solo, then it shows correctly mute when before bar 271 and unmute when just over bar 271.

The only comment I would have is that the channel mute should be seperate from the automation mute.

As to why the mute was there, I have no clue; I definately did not put it there as I have never ever used mute automation.

So the solution is to look for mutes events in automation and get rid of them.

One question I would have, is if you can switch off the Record and Read buttons by default so that Cubase never ever decides to acticate them unless I specifically click them.
I found that they come on as and when they please.
