Interessting. So it happens if the Project media Windows is made larger - here above 42 thumbnails. Will test that on my 8 core System.
Beside that - your know that for UHD/4K footage they have specified an 8-core System? And some of the codecs you use are harder to decode as other codecs, what may make the situation not easier. But beside that, it should not happen for sure.
I have reported this issue already earlier. In my system when more than 100 sthumbnails are visible in the window I have the same effect in media manager and storyboard.It happens with XAVC-S UHD, m2ts FHD and DV media.
I'm seeing this in VEGAS Pro 16 Update 2 (build 307). When more than 49 thumbnails are showing in the Project Media window, thumbnails unnecessarily refresh themselves when the mouse is hovered over the window.
