pb with browsing mp3
yulla
i hav a pb and don't know if it's related with ejukebox
when i hav to browse mp3 with tag & rename or when winamp read the tags of mp3 for displaying names in playlist, some albums are really slow to be
browsed
it can take 10 seconds per song ! when i delete the picture in the id3v2 tag it goes back to the normal
As i didn't have this pb before, i'm asking if it comes from ej 3.8

RE: some albums are really slow to be browsed
Is it slow to browse in eJukebox or in Tag&Rename and Winamp?
Have you recently added id3v2 pictures to your tags using Tag&Rename? Where are you getting your cover pictures? What is the filename.???
extension of the picture files you are using? Maybe the pictures are to large in file size causing Winamp and Tag&Rename to take a long time to
read from the tags with the large encoded image.

-> it's slow to browse everywhere
-> the files concerned are not especially recent ones
cover.jpg 180x182 9ko
i've uploaded 1 corrupt (?) mp3 if someone want to try : http://homer2.free.fr/05-after you.mp3
the mp3 is short and it takes 2 sec to open it in tag&rename ... with good mp3 it's instantaneous.
by selecting "View File info" in winamp we can see too that it's long but it's more obvious with tag & rename.

That file is not corrupted, as far as we can tell. Not sure what the problem is. Are you using the latest version of Winamp? What CPU do you have?
If you want to use the cover images without having to encode them into the ID3v2 tag....eJukebox v3.8 will use the cover.jpg file for the album's
image when you build your eJukebox music database - if each album is in its own folder with a file named 'cover.jpg'.

Also, we recommend using Winamp v2.91 instead of Winamp 5 with eJukebox as it uses much less CPU...so using Winamp v2.91 may also help your
problem.
Here is a link to download Winamp v2.91:

To me, it sounds like this is basically eJ's "auto add to database when file played in Winamp" function working on a perhaps
particuarily slow machine, as it is adding the coverimage to the database as well of the rest of the tag information.
Once again, i plead for a possibility to disable this function.  It is more
or less the only reason i have to rebuild, as i am quite anal about which mp3's to have in my collection, and i have a separate HD for them. So
if this option came along, it would definately be enabled all the time.
