Hello,
A couple - presumably Newbie issues I keep encountering but can not figure how to correct.

I am recording a scene with two characters in a room. My main character is sitting behind a table, seen essentially form the waist up. I am using MotionTrigger with a bunch of pre-created arm motions, and Motion Live to do live lip sync These work and record fine. I start with a clean file -  I do no see any pre-recorded material. I visually explore the timeline to make sure all tracks are clear. I also do a right click and select the "select all clips" and hit delete to make sure. I believe I have every track open. I do not see anything in any part of the timeline. I have the timeline set to around 50,000 frames (we are eventually recording around 30 minutes  of material). Problems I encounter:

- If I record a few minutes of the character while triggering and lip syncing, all looks good. But if I stop and start again, I will start to hear what I just recorded at some point. I believe my restart starts over from the beginning  - is there a way to stop this?

- Sort of unrelated to this, my timeline was starting at frame 667 and I could not get it to go to frame 0. I see no keyframe at 667. I can drag the top timeline indicator to 0, but as soon as I hit the spacebar to start recording it jumps to 667 

Thanks in advance for any info!
