[QUOTE="Kris404, post: 280261, member: 46787"] Hi, MediaPortal takes a long time to play a track from a large folder with MP3 files(2000+). It looks like MP tries to read all the files' tags [B]before[/B] playing the selected file. Naturally it takes a longtime to play the first track in that folder but after that it's easy to play other tracks. Is there some way to disable pre-lookup of the tags before playback or disable the music database altogether? I only use Shares / 'Filename' view and do not care about sorting the files/folder using other views. Any help will be appreciated on this issue. Thanks.
