Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Scan and 7.6

2011-08-13 Thread PasTim

erland;649399 Wrote: 
 I suspect the background scheduling is more aggressive in 7.6 compared
 to 7.5 making it prioritize Custom Scan background scanning before
 handling the music. This is great as long as you don't play music but
 as you say it causes problem if you like to simultaneously play music.
 
 Do I understand correctly that the issue is that you can play music but
 gets very choppy and isn't possible to listen to ?
 
 If so, I'll have to test it in my own environment and see if it would
 be possible to somehow lower the priority of the background scanning if
 music is playing. The result will probably be that the scanning when
 playing music will take more time time but the advantage is that you
 can enjoy music while it's playing and this is probably preferred by
 most users.
When I try to play music during a custom scan it is difficult to get
the server to respond to my request, and then the Toucb starts
buffering and rebuffering, stops, stutters and so on.

Since my custom scan is now quite quick, and I can run it only when I
want, I don't mind this.  However, others, as you say, may find this a
problem.

I don't know if the priorities in the performance settings affect this.
What priority does the custom scan take? Scanner or server?  I have the
server on High (-16) and the scanner on -12.

I'm on Windows 7 64 bit.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: NPR Radio plugin

The hourly 5 min news just plays the NPR URL
http://thin.npr.org/dmg.wax?getNewsCast=trueNPRMediaPref=WM - the same
as a Radio station.

When SBS fetches the above URL, it will be translated by NPR into an
URL for a specific episode.  All I can suggest is to stop SBS and
delete the files in the SBS directory Cache/FileCache as that is where
intermediate URLs are cached.

Has this problem coincided with any other system change ?

As a self confessed Beebophile - you should look at the Archive as there
are very many programs available.

Stick to Flash/AAC and not WMA format when playing archives. 

The BBC have a peculiar bug which means programs in Flash/AAC format
have unique URLs but the WMA URLs are specific to a weekday and time
but not date so trying to play an archive program in WMA usually ends
up playing a program that was broadcast in the last 7 days.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Browse menus slow to show list

2011-08-13 Thread PasTim

Since 7.6.0 I have found that, quite often, my CB menus can take one or
two minutes to load (web GUI or Touch).  This is long enough that the
Touch complains and asks to reconnect.

I'm using Erland's Classical menus, such as Works by Composer.

It is as if the system is slowly loading the whole lot into memory
before showing any items.  Having done this it's OK for a while, but
then something happens that makes it slow again.

I limit my lists to 100 items, and am using the High Memory performance
setting.

I haven't managed to do a detailed set of tests yet.  There are several
things I could look at if it would be useful (eg looking at CPU  disc
loads when I do this).

I am on Windows 7 64 bit, SB 7.6.1 - 33048.
