Sony Vegas Pro 21 extremely slow after update

I updated my Sony Vegas Pro 21 the other day had zero issues before the update the second I updated and started using again the whole programme is slow and laggy non stop. Main issue for me whenever I add a new video file it's literally takes 6+ hours to building peaks for the audio.. when this would normally take literally 1-3 minutes depending on the length of the video file I added. I have a really good PC RTX 4090 64GB RAM etc.. I use the programme daily and have change nothing about the video files I work with only thing that changed was me updating and since the update it almost useable. Is there a reasons this is happening did the update change a load of unknown settings in Vegas? Is there new fix coming? any help would be appreciated

Does checking legacy AVC decoding in preferences, file io help? 21.300 has a fast new decoder that has issues with some media types.

I believe doing this has improved/fixed the issue it is now loading peaks much much quicker thank you! The programme still seems a little laggy at times compared to how it was running for me before the update but it seems a lot better now than what is was.
