Buffering Issue

MC20 keeps halting with a message that it is buffering. Nothing on my system has changed since I was running MC19 with no issues.

A couple of possibilities:
Antivirus
Disk storage

The files aren't available to MC.

The files are available; after a long delay, they continue playing (most of the time). Files are on an internal drive that is only 65% full. My security settings haven't changed since MC19, which never had this problem.

If you are running/playong these files over the network, try copying one file to the computer your playing from just to rule out network issues. I've had this trip me up before.

[Dorsai]

Files are already on the computer I am playing them from.

Apparently,  my hard drive is going bad; MC20 just happened to be the first app to feel it's effects...
