- Framing
And if your playback is set to decode a higher quality image, than the decode will take longer…
We also recently made some changes to better optimize the behavior when you are coloring and syncing the same job simultaneously:
Hopefully this information will help you further troubleshoot what the specific factors are causing the slowness on your system.
The message box only comes up when the operation takes longer than 1 second, and the goal is to have it be fast enough that you rarely see it.
Let us know what you find out and we can dig into it deeper with you.
