Issue: Sluggish Performance When "Slipping Event Content" in Large Sessions (N14)

In large sessions with multiple episodes further down the timeline, I’m experiencing significant sluggishness when using “Slip Event Content” within a cue or moving event content with the mouse in Nuendo 14. However, opening the same session in Nuendo 13 it runs smoothly as expected.

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

is it a project originally created in N13 ? if so, it could maybe be this causing the sluggishness.

It doesn’t seem to make a difference. I was working on a different TV show with only one episode further down the timeline, originally started in Nuendo 13, and it runs fine in Nuendo 14.

To test further, I revisited the session mentioned earlier and started removing episodes to see if performance improved. As I removed most of them, the sluggishness did decrease, suggesting that the number of episodes in the timeline is a factor.

Same here. Large sessions with lots of data on screen makes zooming veeeeery slow also (compared to N13)

With the latest Nuendo 14.030 update, it seems the issue with sluggish behavior when dragging or trimming audio events in very large sessions (such as TV series projects with multiple episodes on the timeline for reference) has been resolved, great improvement there.

However, trimming or adjusting cycle markers still remains very sluggish. I’m also noticing that video playback is occasionally choppy. I always use Avid DNxHD codecs, so this is consistent across large sessions.

Just to reiterate: when opening the exact same sessions in Nuendo 13.055, none of these issues occur.
