Verify Communication

Whenever project information needs to be updated over the network, Nuendo will first check if the connection with all project participants is still working. This check is performed in the background with a preset timeout period.

When participants do not respond within this timeout period, a “Commit Failed” message is displayed. At this stage, no further action is performed, as the problem might be temporary due to an unplugged laptop, for example. If the problem persists, however, you can call the “Verify Communication” function via the Network menu.

When this function is called, a dialog shows the progress of the checking process.

• When all project participants are found, a dialog lists all project participants and their response times, that is, the time it took for their computers to respond to the check. If the response times were longer than the standard timeout, or if a participant was not found who you know is in fact online and waiting for network information, you may want to click on “Adjust timer”. This will change the timeout threshold in Nuendo to a longer setting, allowing for participants with slower response times to be found.

• If project participants are not found because they are offline, a dialog will be shown allowing you to remove these users from the workgroup.
