UI Framerate Issues

--- Quote from: LilyAarseth on January 11, 2021, 05:50:07 pm ---Even when running the mac mini display output in native unscaled 1080p, the jriver window is very unresponsive and lagging, no media loaded so that should be proof it's not the retina scaling and the number of windows within windows in jriver? Restarted jriver after I disconnected from my remote media server to make sure. Still lagging. No other app/program has ever been this, even bloaty programs running poorly through rosetta 2. It has to be something with jriver itself and optimization/how it renders. Unless there is a hidden button somewhere to enable hardware acceleration.
Here is another clip showing the resolution and how much lag happens once I interact with jriver's window, and safari for comparison.

Again sorry if I come off unpolite, I just think it isn't the OS that's causing this after all the troubleshooting I've done.

Like I said it's not useful doing comparisons to single window apps which is what Safari is.
MC is just doing far more complex operations than that when scrolling.
LilyAarseth:
So if I understand correctly, you're somewhat saying MC is just too heavy to run on this hardware smoothly and it can't be optimised and/or have the window/ui math be offloaded by hardware acceleration?

I have a late 2019 MacBook Pro with a Radeon Pro 5500m, an i9, an 16GB of RAM, and it's pretty laggy when scrolling, and especially in Retina mode.

That's pretty much normal right now, and pretty sure it's known (I reported this after the first native screen rendering build). If you use any view that displays stacked cover art that way (e.g. Artists or Albums), especially in Retina Mode, scrolling will definitely lag.
I have over 1,000 artists/bands in my library, and over 9000 (lol) albums in my library so scrolling gets pretty laggy when scrolling (much worse than what's displayed in your video) through the list with all those stacked cover art images displayed, which Retina Mode makes worse, which is to be expected. But even though it still chugs pretty badly when scrolling down a list like that, it actually scrolls faster than the old builds before native screen drawing landed. The old drawing method was worse performing than this, so I'm calling it progress! :P

I think you can turn off the stacked art.
