[QUOTE="EddieGlitter, post: 426318, member: 88529"] Hi, I have recently built my own media pc and I'm using Media Portal. All up, things are working well, but I also find the music very slow. I have updated to the latest version of MP. I have over 90GB (19,000 files) of music stored on another PC (650gb HDD, 4gb rm) I am running my music, picture & movies over a wireless network. Movies play fine, infact you wouldn't know they were running from another PC. However, the music is an issue. It plays nice, but after you have found a track'played it and then go it view the libary again, it is very slow, up to 2 mins to fresh the list.
