    Slow browsing could be down to your hardware, if you give the specs for your pc then this can be confirmed or eliminated.

    or check the manual requirements page for min hardware for both SD and HD playback.

    I have the same problem:

    - slow browsing of my Videos (I use and want to use only "shares" view as I have home videos, films for the kids and TV recordings inside), mainly changing folder takes several seconds
    - the problem came with time (growing video collection)
    - starting playback takes 5 sec for audio, 10 sec for video (first I have audio only), annoying

    If I change folder as browsing in MP, I can see continuous activity of the harddrive, and long lag of browsing. For me it looks like some caching/thumbnailing/database-update. Can I deactivate this? I don´t need the video database of MP (moving picture for my movies folder is enpugh and perfect)! In MPConfiguration I can uncheck the drives to scan but the next time they are checked again always.

    Vista indexing is deactivated. Browsing in windows explorer is very fast. Deleting video database file does not help.

    my Setup:
    AMD X3 8450, 780G/HD3200, 2 GB PC800 RAM
    Vista 32bit SP2
    MP 1.0.2 single-seat, no SVN

    Please help!

    EDIT:

    Shame on me! I found the solution myself by analysing the log files :) There were errors to see, but not with the video database as I thought!
    There was a Database corruption in the "folder......db3" , not in the videodatabase, which I deleted. I removed the "folder....bd3" (booting into secure mode I could do it only) and the problem was gone!
