play video on timline after ripple trim previous edit to playhead

Hello,

 

I want to play the video in the timeline after cut using the keyboard shortcut Q


Or more simply, after pressing the shortcut Q and cutting the part that I do not want, I immediately want the video in the timeline to play automatically without the need to press the shortcut space

 

I tried a mouse macro that presses Q and then Space directly, but unfortunately it works once and doesn't work 10 times after that for some reason no one knows

 

What I mean is that the macro actually does the job of the Q shortcut 100% correctly, but sometimes the Space shortcut is pressed, and very often it does not.

 

Why is this important? Because I work on very long clips and manually trim out pauses, pauses, and errors. I don't use ai tools like AutoCut, for example. Because they aren't suitable for the type of clips I'm working on.

 

I know I've written a lot despite how trivial it is, but it exhausts me out a lot in my daily work.

 

Thanks
