Title: Stop fadeout causes freezes
Post by: mmote on December 08, 2015, 07:09:37 am

If stop is set to anything but "immediate" in the audio settings, the main thread will lock until the fadeout is completed. This gets even worse if you call RemoveAllFiles() on the current playlist from a plugin as this may block for up to 10 seconds.
Using DirectSound output, everything at default settings.
According to the changelog there was a fix for this in 21.0.11, but the issue is still present apparently.

It does block while it fades out.  That's just the way it works.

I compared the current version against Media Center 18. While the old version also bocks user input, at least the GUI updates while the fadeout is in progress. There also is no additional freeze when clearing the current playlist while playing something.
