Odd range bars on replay

When I replay a chart, 1x speed, it prints very wide bars at the right edge, they change to the appropriate bars after awhile, when price reaches the edge of the wide bar. The data was captured in realtime from IB. [obviously that could be the root cause]. It seems to do the same thing with historical intraday data from IB. I've not seen this in realtime. My Data/Trade Service Settings with regard to data have the 5 seconds data and true realtime data set to false and the intraday data time storage units set to 1 tick.

I can change the range setting to something else, ie 2Ticks and it will do something similar.

This is explained on this page here:
Number Of Trades, Volume or Range Bar Charts Do Not Match Setting or Are Not Accurate or Are Inconsistent

You need a tick by tick data configuration.
