Reaplay issue with all charts

Hi,
I'm having an issue with the replay function. I have two charts—one with a 1-minute timeframe and one with 100 trades, both using the NQ symbol. If I run the replay individually on each chart, it works fine. However, when I select "All Charts" or "Linked Charts," the replay doesn't start and remains stuck.
Both charts have the same update time, so I'm not sure what else could be preventing them from syncing properly.
Do you have any suggestions on what I should check or how to fix this?

Thank you!

The replay should not be "stuck" when replaying multiple charts. It may take a few extra seconds (maybe a minute) for the charts to load up and start replaying, but there is no reason for them to not play at all.

Is the option for "Start Paused" enabled, such that the charts will not start to replay until you select the "Play" button after they have loaded?

Also, are you starting at a different time in the chart? Are you using the "Start from Date-Time" when you are replaying multiple charts? If so, you need to ensure that data is loaded in the all the charts going back to the date and time entered in this case.

I'm currently trying to replay today’s NQ session at 9:30 across two charts. However, when using "All Charts" mode, it updates extremely slowly. basically printing one 1-minute candlestick per update, making it unusable.
I want to stress that replaying each chart individually works perfectly.
Would it help if I send the logs?

It is definitely going to be slower, as it is needing to update all the charts, so it will not be exactly like real-time, or like replaying a single chart.

Also, are you being prompted for a "Processing Time in Seconds"? This will occur if you are using either "Accurate Trading System Back Test Mode" or "Calculate at Every Tick/Trade" for the "Replay Mode" along with calculating multiple charts. If you are getting this, what are you entering for the value? This will affect how the charts are updated. Refer to the information in this section for "Processing Time in Seconds":

thank you John. it was due to the processing time in Seconds. I set it to 60 that why the update was so slow. now I set it to 1 and it's working much better.
