Howdy,
Okay - let's stay on focus with this specific topic so the JR crew can give us some insight: This is copied from Tor's original post - and is exactly what I am seeing.
ATTN: Matt: To answer you question about this condition with APE - Tor is in fact seeing this condition WITH APE here. I am converting FLAC...the issue seems to be the same...and here we go....
Since 15.0.142 i have been having serious problems with converter. I am converting from ape to mp3 from my NAS to local drive which never caused any grief in the past were i could convert 4 files at the same time flying on my gigabit network. My machine is WIN7 64-bit with 6GB ram and core i7 CPU
Now every 3-8 tracks it stops on 100% for some 10-30 sec before it continues and in this periode even web sites wont load, so might be something memory related?
Doing 4 files at the time on .142 a 100% stop on one file would render all the 3 other files as empty from the point the stop occured to the end of the tracks with result of having bunch of files with lots of missing sound?
I have upgraded to .150 and now doing one track at the time since at least that seems to create accurate mp3 files but it just thanks a lot of time and also renders my machine somewhat useless in the process whenever it stops for the said amount of time on random tracks.
Any tips would be appreciated?
