After a long hiatus (due mainly to life and the frustration of a hard drive crash that took most of my music library with it, I finally reinstalled MC and started my library from scratch. I started with pictures, and finally got my 9000 picture library all organized. MC was a dream.
Next I decided to start on videos. It was then that MC seemed to really slow down and become rather unresponsive. It seemed especially bad when I was dealing with Quicktime files.
As an experiment, I just removed all Quicktime files from my library to see if things would clear up. For the most part, it seems like they have. MC still is a lot slower dealing with videos than it is with pictures (I don't have any audio files imported yet), but Quicktime seems to be the worst.
Can anybody confirm this on their system? I'm just mostly curious because I'm also currently running this on my laptop (which is only a 1.6 Ghz Pentium M with 512MB RAM) and my library is on a USB 2.0 hdd. So it may just be this particular setup that's causing this.
