MC doesn't behave nicely doing resource intensive tasks

<< < (12/13) > >>

JimH:
All Win 10?

I'll merge this with your original thread.

steff:
Yes, all of them are Windows 10: one is the home edition (or the very basic one) one is Pro and the other Enterprise.

I mean that this occurs playing audio files from the library and also playing audio files picking up them directly from the filesystem (the network mount).

In any case the AV was configured according to your best practice: exclude from the scan the MC directory, the music folders, etc.
On Windows 10 it is not possible to totally disable AV, or I am not able to do this.

Moreover I have a severe concer how memory playback is managed.
If I choose to play from memory, so that at first the file is loaded then is played...
If am listening to  file and I change the song, then from one side MC continues to play the old song, on the other side it is loading the new song and this is a nonsense and contributes to the problem.
MC at the same time play something and load something else.
Memory playback should be designed to dedicate the computer to play and nothing more and not load while playing.
It would be very nice to have at least a switch to stop playing a song if I switch to another song.

steff:
This message has been moved back to the MC23 section, where no one is still interested, while it is applicable for sure to MC25, since just tested.

JimH:
Did you test with a new library?

Did you test without memory playback?  A large media file could cause problems, especially if it's loaded from a network location.

Awesome Donkey:
If it only happens with files loaded over the network, and not when testing local files located on the machine itself, the issue is probably related to the network which might be too slow to handle it in a timely manner. I think you said 150Mbps is your network speed, but these days that's not really that much when 1Gbps networks have become pretty commonplace. I myself use 1Gbps hardwire for my network (and NAS) and I don't have any issues with network bottlenecks.
