Title: MC11 Slow when minimized to system tray
Post by: Pink Waters on May 04, 2005, 12:54:46 am
MC still very slow and that is noticable when leaving the media center minimized in the tray icon for a long time and then restoring it it will behave very slowly   :-\

Can you see if you have anything in common? 

Any third party plug-ins or software in use?

The skin is unloaded on minimize to save resources.  This makes restore a bit slower, but the saved resources are nice if you're a gamer or run other resource intensive tasks while listening to music.
