Image transition slow in dual view with MP not focused (1 Viewer)

[grelle]

Hi

I'm new to MP and so far I really like it! One thing that troubles me though is that when I use slideshow to watch my images, the transition "is slow", I mean it's not running smooth. This only happens when MP is not in focus. By that I mean when I'm focusing another window on my regular computerscreen (using dualview with Nvidia and having MP on my secondary screen, my LCD tv). As soon as I focus MP just by clicking on it on my "start bar" it's ok again.

So I'm not "pushing" my computer with other heavy tasks during the time of "slow transitions".

My computer is a AMD AM2 6000+ with 2GB RAM and a Asus NVIDIA 8600 GT 512mb graphics card.

Thankful for any suggestions!

Hi Grelle,
I think the reason for that is DirectX.
Normally you can use DirectX only on the one screen.
So you have everytime to define "MP screen" as primary screen. Only primary screen use DirectX

I hope it helps.

Actually MP will render much slower FPS when the window has no focus.
