A few more observations about MC27 on double monitors.


* Dragging the main window around on the screen is choppy (is that a word? it is like it makes little jumps/skips on the way to where I'm dragging it).
* Sometimes when I drag to my Macbook Pro screen when it has been on my main screen it jumps out of range. The only solution to get control of it (as far as I can tell is to quit MC and restart it) See screenshot.
* If I change the size of the screen real slow it often sticks and doesn't jump back to it's previous (or even another smaller size) but in many cases when I have to move MC out of the way and am not paying too much attention like I would with other apps it moves choppy and erratically resizes itself.

EDIT: I typed .20, then changed it to .21 when I looked at the forum thread title, but it really was .20.  I didn't see .21 posted.  I'll try .21 as well. 

EDIT2: After installing .21, same deal.  Press play, CPU jumped to the 90s.  Hit stop, CPU drops to <1%.

When you get that high CPU usage in .21 what are you viewing at the time? Playing Now, Display View, Theater View, etc?
Is the spectrum analyzer enabled? If so and you disable it, does anything change?

We are going to try to transition to the non-flipped version, this build is mostly for comparisons to the native screen version so we can find regressions.

Viewing Playing Now.

I had the show waveform enabled, and spectrum on both left and right.  When I disable those, stop and restart a track, the CPU is about 20%. 

With show waveform, it settles around 24%.

With one spectrum analyzer on (Left) and waveform, it settles around 70%.  Same with waveform turned off (and spectrum on).

EDIT: If it matters, my System Information shows 100% audio analyzed.
