| MP Donator  |  Switching to MyVideos takes tooooo much time MediaPortal Version: 0.2.2 MediaPortal Skin: MePo green wide - mostly ;-) Windows Version: XP SP 2 CPU Type: Athlon 2200+ HDD: 120 GB and 2.5 TB on NAS Memory: 1024 GB Motherboard: ASROCK KTv47a Pro Video Card: GT 6600 XT Video Card Driver: latest MPEG2 Video Codec: ffdshow 26-08-2006 MPEG2 Audio Codec: ffdshow 26-08-2006 Hi, switching to MyVideos takes about three minutes (the first time, thereafter it´s fast), which is way too long. I have about 300 movies on a NAS, and the more movie files there are, the longer it takes. All movies are looked up (imdb/ofdb) and are displayed as symbols. Oh, and "folder view". I guess MP does some kind of scan the first time MyVideos are opened. Is there any way of speeding it up ? mcbelly |

Country:  | if you have 300 movies in one root directory, please set your explorer to preview and open that share. Disable the "watched" indicator and see if that helps a little

Country:  | maybe creating a structure (subfolders) for this movies would be wise too. 300 movies in one folder sounds realy messy

| MP Donator | rtv: Thanks, will check when I get home infintyloop : I thought about that, too. Actually, it isn´t that messy. The movies are properly named and sorted. And I have an alphbetical overview, where it is real fast to find a movie (at least, when they´re displayed ;-) ). Atm , with Symbols, there are 17 pages, which I find quite comforting. And : This is just one folder. I have others on my network with more movies in it (not that much), so I usually switch to db view, to get all my movies.... mcbelly |
