[QUOTE="csberto, post: 27617, member: 10486"] EUREKA EUREKA EUREKA EUREKA EUREKA EUREKA EUREKA EUREKA I found the cause and solution for all the problems as described in my above post. The cause is the dual core processor in my PC. The solution is to set affinity for Media Portal to 1 CPU instead of the default 2 CPU's. I did that in Windows Taskmanager. In the Processes tab I rightclicked MediaPortal.exe and set affinity to CPU 0 only (instead of the default CPU 0 and CPU 1). Problem however is that this setting isn't saved permanently, so when shutting down MediaPortal and starting it again the affinity is automatically set to CPU 0 and CPU 1 again. The solution for this is the Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit, that can set affinity permanently for a particular application. For other users of Media Portal who experience the same problems as I did and want to try this, here are the instructions for downloading and using the Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit 1. Install this: [url]http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyI...792FD&displaylang=en[/url] 2. Start.. Programs... Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit 4.1... Tools... Compatibility Administrator 3. At the bottom of the tree on the left is "custom database". Right click it, Create New... Application Fix. 4. Type in a name (say, the program name) and point it at the .exe of the program in question, and click next. 5. Choose "none" for operating system mode, and click next (you don't want any of the fixes on this page). 6. Choose "SingleProcAffinity" from the list and click next. 7. Click finish. 8. Click save and pick a name and location for the database. 9. Right click the database and pick "install". [/QUOTE]
