That show's 18 Seconds, in your MP's view have you got database selected, just a distinct lack of information, so we can help pinpoint problem.

I am not sure i understand you.
From 14:49:44 to 14:51:02 is 78 seconds...
I did not understand your question? What do you need to help me?

Saturday, early start because of daughter, just reread, 78 secs is correct

OK , whats needed.

Amount of files in database, have these files been scanned in MP config\Video\database and been successful, your view in Mediportal is set to Title not shares.

and all logs uploaded please, use start menu\logs collector for this and use the advanced + feature to upload and attach.

Same problem here, using Shares view. I want to have a separate catalogue for the kids movies, and another for recordings, and another for home-movies, so the Title view is not a good option for me. I have always used Shares view and lately it has been much, much slower in the clients. Has there been a change in how much data is sent, or what can be the reason? It does not seem to be cashed either. It takes the same time every time the files are to be shown, even when you stop a movie, and MP is going back to the files. Nothing is shown in the logs (debug mode). Just a long time delay before " nothing to do for item -1"

do you share your database in multiseat setup?

I've had the same problem by changing the "mediaportal.dir" ... all clients are set to the same Server folder for .../thumb and .../database

after i've changed the settings back again the problem is disappeared

Yes, but with separate databases, you have to get thumbnails from IMBD for every client... and so on...
The question is why the datatransfer is so slow, or if its unnessesery much data transfered. If its a SQL problem, a MediaPortal problem, or a Windows problem. I think only a developer can sort that out.

Hi
Finally i had the time to upload the logs.

I am using Shares view. And my Video database is apx 800kb.
Deleting the videodatabase file does not help, but deleting all database files helps - for i while.
