[QUOTE="asagala, post: 470753, member: 85693"] Hi, The way MyPictures deals with thumbnails is not ideal. It creates thumbnails as you navigate through folders and this creates issues when you have alot of pictures or you are browsing on a shared drive. It is slow and bring up CPU usage which bring the machine to a screeching halt. I created a patch that allows all thumbs to be pre-created using a button in the configuration.

As always make a backup of the replaces files before overwritting them. Once the files are replaced start the configuration tool in advanced mode. Select "Picture Database" section and click the "Update Database from Selected Shares" button. The process can take time if you have a lot of pictures. Once all thumbs are generated and database populated picture navigation will be quick in MP. Patch has made it in SVN. Should be in Mediaportal 1.1.
