In the last few versions is anyone else getting a serious lag in the blue position bar both in sequence and source monitors?  Really annoying that you can't see current position during playback!!

Are you running 2018.09?

Does this happen all of the time, or only occasionally?

Most of the time.  Any idea why this might be happening?

Potential bug. Do you see the timeline audio monitors also stop functioning when this is happening?

Yes in fact!

It's a known bug being worked on. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Just a small update on this.  In an effort to solve another problem with general slow performance, I wiped out my AMA management folder (in users/shared/avidmediacomposer).  Not only did it sort out my slow performance issue, but the laggind blue position issue also seems to have cleared up.

Hey Brad....  watch it for me and IF it start to slow down again and the blue bar starts acting wacky again, report back in to me.

I think it degrades over time...

Will do Marianna!

Thank you for this, had the same problem and it got instantly fixed by deleting the contents of that folder. whew!

Marianna,

We've noticed this too, even to the point where the blue position bar disappears. We are running MC 2018.11. Do you know if this bug was addressed in 2018.12? We also are experiencing a progress bar for about 8 seconds when we insert or overwrite certain clips into the timeline, while Avid searches the database. Could these be related?
