heres what i suspect is going on here.
and its only a suspicion and i might be wrong.
and i dont know the internal workings of RB obviously.
or your toshiba. its difficult without being there.
and my comments are based on your task mgr pic.
that your system is lightly loaded.
you mention this "sticky video" aspect.
depending how a daw is coded while playing back if i remember some daws
get their time positional info from the sound device.
(via a windows api that the programmer can use. )
or the only other way is the daw calculating the time position itself.
its been known that some sound devices sometimes dont send the correct
time position back to the daw.
whether this is your situation i just dont know,
its just a possibility i'm throwing out.
based on the fact your idle process is high hinting that your system
isnt under heavy load.
based on the above my question is...
1. what is the sound device that is being used ...creative ??
(this is one reason i asked for a pic of your preferences.
44.1/16 ?? ..mme or asio ?? )
2. if its usb do you have any other usb devices shareing the usb bus ??
reason for this question is the possibility that some other usb device is affecting the performance of the sound device.
heres how i would progress on this if i were in
your position.
process of elimination.
i would firstly test out another sound device.
if you find the situation is resolved, then the problem is probably
the current sound device your useing.

Not being flip as I appreciate the help. You said you only skimmed the thread as it's long.I will refresh.
I totally uninstalled:
1. USB sound Card
2. USB HD
3. PCMCIA sound card
4. network adapters
5. shut down all unnecessary programs
6. there is no security software
It plays the same regardless. Everything is now back on. I think it's in the SEQ file based on the way I'm creating these songs. I have about 150 RB songs that are all audio tracks now. If someone would try making a song the way I have maybe it will replicate. Here are the steps.Follow exactly. Don't get fussy about the music being coherent.
1. Import an MGU file into RB that is all MIDI except for Real Drums.
2. Using track---> remove track remove all tracks except the RD and the midi piano part.
3. Tracks--->make all BB tracks regular tracks.
4. Right click on the midi piano part and "auto convert Individual midi track to audio tracck.
5. Remove the midi piano as per #2
6. add 7 more Real tracks by highlighting each track one at a time, right click, select and generate RT.
7. Copy 6 measures of all tracks and paste to the end of the song.
8. do a fade out on these last six measures.
That's it in a nut shell.

John here's a post i found, not that it is the solution but a possible solution.
“My Toshiba laptop suddenly shuts down by itself without any warning. Sometimes it works fine for hours, sometimes it shuts down in 10-15 minutes.” This complaint we hear from our customers over and over again. About 15-20% of all Toshiba laptops we get for repair, suffer from an overheating problem. Yep, OVERHEATING!
This is one of the most common problems with Toshiba laptops we deal with.
Indications of laptop overheating problem:
1. The keyboard and the bottom of your laptop are very hot when the laptop is working.
2. The CPU fans are working all the time at maximum rotation speed and operate much louder than before.
3. The laptop suddenly shuts down by itself without warning. When it just started, the laptop was shutting down after 1-2 hours and how it shuts down after 5-10 minutes of operation.
4. The laptop works fine when it runs idle, but shuts down as soon as you start using any memory demanding applications (DVD player, image editing software, video editing software, etc.).
Solution:
If the CPU heatsink is not clogged with dust and lint completely, you can use canned air and just blow it inside the laptop through the openings on the bottom and on the sides. It’s nice as a precaution measure, but it might not work if your laptop already has a problem and the heatsink is completely clogged.
1. Open the laptop case, so you can access the CPU fan and the heatsink. In some cases you can access the heatsink through the latch on the bottom of the laptop. Sometimes (for example Toshiba Satellite A70/A75) you have to open the laptop case all the way down.
2. Carefully disconnect the fan cables on the system board and remove the fan. If the fan makes unusual sound when it spins (grinding sound), I would recommend to replace the fan.
3. Clean the fan and the heatsink with compressed air.
4. I would also recommend removing old thermal grease from the CPU and applying new grease for better heat conductivity.
I'm surprised the "A long and Winding Road" was not written about computer probs. Wyndham

Did all of that already.
I put Power Tracks on my other computer. Dell Inspiron 8100 PIII 1.4 ,512 ram and copied a couple of the SEQ songs over and the same stuttering of the scroll line happens.

as i said best bet is to try process of elimination ..
try another sound device n see if the problem goes away.

Hello, Quote:
No sideways scroller bar appearing here
Yes, for some reason a scrollbar doesn't appear when it should with the latest version of Internet Explorer - do not know why. Problem doesn't happen with Firefox. I removed the link to the image that was 1440 pixels wide, since there is a smaller version of the same one posted below, so now IE users should be able to read this properly.

video stuttering
I haven't been able to duplicate the problem. I followed the steps listed to import a song, Remove BB tracks and so on, but I don't have the same stuttering problem. Since it only happens after you "remove blue tracks" it seems like there should be a way for us to duplicate it, but no luck so far unfortunately.
A couple of ideas that you have probably tried, but I'm not sure if I saw them in the thread. I would do them in the order listed:
-Did you tried installing RealBand into a NEW folder, such as C:\RealBand__TEST (rather than just reinstalling into the same folder).
-Did you try using MME instead of ASIO drivers?
-Did you try plugging your computer in, instead of using battery power (it's a laptop right?)
-Did you try a selective startup on that computer? Start | Run, type msconfig, choose 'selective startup' uncheck 'startup items', and reboot.
Then run RealBand and see if you still have the stuttering.

Parts of emails I sent to Andrew:
I took some CD's and loaded up 48 tracks and it played perfectly.
I saved as SEQ and restarted the program and it wouldn't even begin to play. Had to use task Mgr to shut down.
Reopened deleted 8 tracks ,saved & restarted it wouldn't play but was able to stop the program.
Deleted 10 more tracks were at 30 now, saved & restarted. the audio was fine the video was jumping a measure at a time.
Deleted 10 more now at 20 saved & restarted audio & video OK.
No more improvement down to 1 track.
Conclusion: I should be able to play 20 tracks. 9 tracks of Real Instruments makes the Video stutter.
I just did a song in RB by entering the chords on the chord sheet. I then added 9 RT, 1 RD, and then added 2 midi files. I then converted the midi tracks to audio and erased the midi. 12 tracks total play fine. All of my songs were created by importing the BIAB MGU files into RB! This is the typical process I used:
1. Import an MGU file into RB that is all MIDI except for Real Drums.
2. Using track---> remove track remove all tracks except the RD and the midi piano part.
3. Tracks--->make all BB tracks regular tracks.
4. Right click on the midi piano part and "auto convert Individual midi track to audio tracck.
5. Remove the midi piano as per #2
6. add 7 more Real tracks by highlighting each track one at a time, right click, select and generate RT.
7. Copy 6 measures of all tracks and paste to the end of the song.
8. do a fade out on these last six measures.
That's it in a nut shell.

well this is a stumper isnt it mate ??
if youve tried different sound devices (have you ??)
and the same video prob occurs in each ..
then i gotta suspect , n mebe i'm wrong,
your lappie intrernal drive.
i find your first couple of para's in your last post very telling.
obviously rb can handle the 48 traks...
but once saved there are probs unless you delete traks.
thus i have to suspect the drive itself.
particularly your comment bout 20 traks working.
but higher trak counts being a problem.
so lets look at your drive.
please post a pic from win device manager of your drive settings.
dma.
as i said before , lappies are a pain.
some work well n some dont.
your not recording at some high sample rate like 96khz are you ??
ive seen it happen where lappie internal drives cant handle high bit depths
n sampling rates. so everything clams up.
i assume not cos your useing audigy ??

This may be more revealing. An email to Andrew.
Hey Andrew,
OK
You couldn't reproduce it the other day. Today I thought I'd load one of the mgu files that I originally used and see what I could do. I left all of the Blue Tracks alone and just muted them. I kept adding RTs one at a time. I saved the song and restarted the program each time I added a track. I would then load a different song and play a few bars. I then would load my test song, confirm proper play, add another track, save, restart and so on. I was able to load all 48 tracks!!! and it played perfectly. Only the first 5 tracks were muted MIDI.
I then deleted the BLUE tracks saved as test2 and restarted the computer. All remaining 43 audio tracks played perfectly.
At this point I figured I couldn't reproduce it either. All 150 songs were done with v3 before the last BETA.
I shut down the computer to go to lunch. When I got back I thought I'd test some more. I opened my test song hit play and everything locked up.I had to remove all but 5 tracks to get acceptable playback.
Why would restarting the computer affect the file playback. turning the program off and on didn't. Doesn't make sense to me.

Something must be attempting to load at startup and sometimes it completes whatever its task is and other times it doesn't. Might keep on polling and polling for it, though. Could be internet releted, like something trying to phone home and written poorly, but could also be a non-internet related proggie and a simple timing problem at bootup that allows it to complete sometimes and not at others. Might be a virus scanner that looks for updates when booting, something like that. I do know that Avast! can cause audio stuttering and stuff on my laptop if I boot up and the WiFi is not online, the darn thing looks for updates at bootup. Also, even if it does find the web, if there is an update for it to download and install, that, too, creates interrupts until it is done with the routine.

Music only computer. No virus stuff, no internet. No matter what after completing a song if I reboot the file is forever messed up. Any other idea why rebooting would mess up the files.

There still may be a rogue program or cookie that is trying to phone home in there. Some of them are really bad after they find no internet connection, they just keep on polling and polling and polling.

Before the reboot, the file is still playing from the default Temp location, likely C:\Temp.
After reboot and reloading the song, it plays again from the same place. Now I suspect possibility that somehow the .seq and associated wav files are not loading into that temp directory well. But can't figure out what setting you might investigate exactly.
Have you changed your disk cache size from the "let windows manage" setting?

Mac,
To make sure I changed my temp folder to something I'd easily find. During playback there are no files going in there.
The only thing I see under the disc properties is a check for "enable write caching on the disc" and it's checked.
Is there someplace else to look?

I'm not sure about this but if you changed the "Temp"named folder to something else, Windows or BIAB might regenerate the temp folder on it's own and the "Temp" might still be the "Temp" . Since you said it happened on another laptop that would cut out a lot of issues on your laptop.
There is a program call Belarc Advisor that tells you a great deal about your system. it free and you might find some thing in it's scan of your system that gives you a heads up on either a hidden TRS program that you didn't know about or a windows patch that might help. It free

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
