Djungelurban Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) Got a problem with custom fields again. When using the nested filters and one of the criteria for auto-populating a playlist involves a custom field, Launchbox struggles to update the playlist alot. As a comparison, when going to "All" section it takes little over a second for the playlist to populate. But when going to a playlist with more 9000 games and one custom field as one of two criterias it took over 1½ minute for the playlist to populate. So yeah, that doesn't work.

Djungelurban Posted December 20, 2018 Author Share Posted December 20, 2018 Just would like to reiterate that this issue still remains. As things are now I'll be stuck at 8.9 for the foreseeable future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djungelurban Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 Again, 9.3 still has this issue. I have attachment my "data" folder so it can be used for reference for figuring out what's wrong. Hoping this can be solved soon.

Djungelurban Posted February 13, 2019 Author Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) Unsurprisingly this issue remains. I'm starting to feel actively ignored here... Anyway, after some further experimenting is seems to be related to the "auto-populate" function rather than the custom fields. I just assumed it was custom fields since that was heavily used in my nested tree and they've caused problems before. But as I've added new auto-populated playlists that doesn't use any custom fields and it's also very very slow it seems clear that it's more a problem with the auto-populate function itself rather than any specific field.

Jason Carr Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Thank you Neil, I never saw this thread. Unfortunately there's no way I could read and respond to every single thread on these forums. Auto-populate playlists are naturally going to be more CPU intensive than otherwise, but I've worked hard in the past few versions to help their performance. A lot will depend on hardware though, of course. @Djungelurban Please let me know your hardware specs. You can also PM me a copy of your LaunchBox\Data folder and let me know what's slow and I'll see if there's anything out of the ordinary that's slowing it down that can be addresssed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
