ID 138224 - Swapping buffer inputs with Enter is very slow and restarts buffer caching/processing even with Pause button enabled

Follow

Problem summary
Swapping buffer inputs with Enter is very slow and restarts buffer caching/processing even with Pause button enabled

 

Customer reported version
nuke.13.1v3

 

Customer reported platform

 

Steps to reproduce

 

1) Open Nuke Studio

2) Import two clips (ideally two 4K Quicktime files from the network like \\netldn\netshare\support\4Pete\footage\Bambo.mp4 and \\netldn\netshare\support\4Pete\footage\Site_2_PondTrees.MP4) and add them to two tracks on the timeline above each other

3) Select the bottom clip and press 1 to load it into A buffer
 
4) Select the top clip and press 2 to load it into B buffer
 
5) Select the Viewer and press Enter to swap buffers. The Viewer takes a while to update and the caching/processing restarts.

 

6) Pause the Viewer updates, by pressing P.

 

7) Select the Viewer and press Enter to swap buffers. The caching/processing still restarts even though the Viewer is paused.

 

Expected behaviour
For the buffers to swap quickly without caching

 

Actual behaviour
It can be very slow to swap A/B buffers, and pausing the viewer doesn't help to stop it caching

 

Workaround
Unknown.
