- I'm wondering something along these lines (from FAQ) might help - haven't tried it yet... (Question was: I'm using the SlimServer as a Windows service but the performance isn't good. The music sometimes is choppy and the menus aren't very responsive, especially when it's scanning my music library. What can I do?) Answer: By default, Windows doesn't give high priority to services and the SlimServer software sometimes needs a fair amount of CPU. To work around this, open your "Control Panels", and then open the "System" control panel. On the "Advanced" tab, find the "Performance" section and click on "Settings". On the "Advanced" tab, choose "Backround Services" under "Processor Scheduling". Click "OK" and the SlimServer software will now get more CPU cycles and perform better. -- abr88 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ abr88's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4415 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22772 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
