The issue faced by the user is that the default MM settings can result in delays for large libraries when the user clicks a track resulting in 160000 tracks being added to the Playing list (and the associated .m3u file). I'd prefer to actually solve this rather than give a warning. Possible approaches that I can think of: 1) Fix the problem via performance improvements. I'm not the expert, but e.g. - Initiate playback immediately - Use the DB rather than a file operation - If the file operation is required (e.g. for compatibility with other players), only use it if other players are enabled - etc... 2) Short term hack: In the Default 'Play now' Action section, add a limit for the 'Clear list & play selected + subsequent setting e.g. _Clear list & play selected + subsequent_v_ . . Limit: _10000_ tracks 3) Worst solution: change the default setting for the Default Play Now action to 'Clear list and play selected'. But I don't like this--I think the solution is worse than the problem. Ludek, what do you think? We can push if 1/2 aren't quick fixes. |

I have just tried on user database with more than 1 million of tracks and I have not observed any slowdowns. Playback started immediately after the double-click and the files were added into Playing panel without any UI freeze. @Peke, from the ticket MDO-861-35643 it sounds to me that user has tested on MM4 and not on MM5 ? 1 million tracks.png (254,594 bytes) |

I can easily replicate on my 200k library after faster browsing and playing tracks with double click. I kept Now Playing Open, but user could simply hide right panel as it uses main track view to start playback. My Now playing m3u8 was 122MB and on MM5 restart loading it also crashed MM5 after some time. I was trying to play some tracks Uploaded Video File, My mediamonkey.m3u8 and full log file from mm5 restart that in the end resulted in CB5975CC LOG file To answer your question yes user was using MM4, but there we can't do much, but we can make needed changes in MM5 and improve this. |
