Build 1974 - preview slow

Postby lecadk » Fri Aug 17, 2007 8:37 am

I have installed 1974 and the preview is very very slow. This is while making a show. It shows just half of the picture. Or when it is trying to build up the preview is shows the same picture twice more or less.

Take a look here: http://www.pbase.com/carlsson/image/84037085

Anyone else having trouble with the preview window?

I have not heard anyone else comment on that issue, but here is
something you can try. If you had worked on this show with a
previous version, try exiting Proshow, delete the showname.pxc
(NOT the .psh file) then re-start it. The showname.pxc file is a temp
file that proshow uses and if it gets corrupted, very strange things
can happen. give that a shot (it's in the same directory as your show).

Thanks - but the trouble started when I wanted to make a new show with the new build.
And then I have opened a show I've beek working on with the same result.

Hmmm -- the only other thing I have seen recently that
can give that is if any of the media (slides/music/etc) is
on an external drive (or even a CD) etc where the transfer
is slow. Not saying you're not seeing it, I just have not
heard anyone else complain about that "feature" yet in the
new build. There have been some comments on the Yahoo
group about making sure you un-install the old version
before you install the new version (of course, I'm still
running 1942 :D )

I did uninstall previous versions. And no, my files are on the same disk.

I have reported the isue to Photodex.

I was just wondering if anybody else had the same problem.

Personally, I'm stickin' with 1942 until either a feature I really want shows up or the issues settled down.

And reinstalling or falling back to a prior build is always an option if you want to test to see for sure that it's an issue with that build.

Build 1974 - preview slow: Solved

It was my monitor. I did a change in the preferences of hardwareacceleration. It is now set to full. No more problems with preview of pictures.
