Hi Matthias, I think that these issues are addressed at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/me-tv/+bug/192355. If you've got the time then please try the new upstream 0.5.19 and tell me if it fixes your issues.
The EPG reader _is_ in a separate thread but GTK is not multi-thread safe, it is however multi-thread aware. The issue is that GTK really only allows 1 thread to update the UI at a time, that's why it appears to lock-up. I've made the EPG update yield its lock more regularly which I think gets around this issue. There can be several reasons why your CPU usage might be high, if you find that 0.5.19 does not fix your issue then we might need to isolate further. Please let me know. Thanks for trying Me TV. I hope that we can sort these issues out so that you can enjoy it as much as I do. :) Thanks, Michael On 21/02/2008, Matthias Bläsing <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Package: me-tv > Version: 0.5.17-1 > Severity: normal > > --- Please enter the report below this line. --- > > Hey, > > me-tv is a very nice programm.
