R5 Mk 1, Firmware 2.1.0.. The checkered flag button doesn't work for me in video mode. I mean the right-most one with the grid, official name "AF point selection" button.

That is it works before recording, including button customizations, but once I start recording it does nothing.

E.g. I set it to "Movie Servo AF enable/disable" and it only works before recording. The same function works during recording when I put it on the "Depth-of-field preview" button or the "Auto Exposure lock" button.

Same with other functions, they just won't work during recording when I put them on that button, yet work fine on others.

Does it work for you? Any ideas besides a full reset?
