Apologies if this has been covered already, but I searched the forum (admittedly briefly) and didn't see it mentioned.
I am running slimserver on Windows XP with an Athalon 64, half gig of memory, all that good stuff. I have a big (.m3u) playlist as well as some smaller ones. The biggest playlist has 4700 songs and takes 38 seconds to start playing using either my Squeezebox 1 or my Squeezebox 2. Since I can load either one in Winamp in about a second, that seems more than a little unreasonable. I don't believe it was that slow under Slimserver 5. I tried running Slimserver 6 on a 32-bit Athalon computer, same deal. I just installed the new SlimServer Version: 6.0.2 - 3085. Same deal. Loading a playlist with 600 songs takes only 4 seconds, which frankly seems excessive too, but I can survive with that. 38 seconds to load a playlist, however, I cannot accept. I am not using iTunes. Turning shuffle on or off doesn't appear to matter. My music collection is mostly mp3s, with some .oggs. While the playlist is loading "slim.exe" seems to suck up all my CPU usage. What's going on and is there any way of fixing it? I'm not married to .m3u files if using a different playlist format would help. -- mhenry1384 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
