Significant delays trying to edit game properties.

Not sure if anyone else has experienced this but when right-clicking on a title, and clicking to edit game metadata/media it takes a long time for the menu to appear to edit the details.   Its been like this for some time I was hoping with newer version releases it would have been improved but so far it only seems to have gotten worse.    Tried CTRL-E shortcut and same problem.

I was using 12.11 and recently upgraded to 12.12 beta 2 (but has had this issue for many version back now).

It takes upwards of 15-20 seconds or longer for the Edit games properties window to appear.

Correct.  The context menu pop up is reasonable.   It’s just when actually trying to open the edit dialog box itself to change metadata.

When doing so can you pay attention to the game details view during this long load up time. What seems to take longer, the time when you first press the edit button to the time GameDetails is unloaded, or the time that GameDetails is blank to the time you see the Edit Window appear?

The latter for sure.   After clicking 'edit metadata/media' in the context dialog box it disappears relatively quickly (and game details clears), but after that I see a spinning mouse cursor wheel for quite some time before the edit game metadata properties box actually appears.  I should mention though that it seems quite slow to refresh the game details when highlighting between different individual titles as well, but once the game details populates navigating the context menu seems to be ok until I try to bring up the edit metadata/media, like mentioned above.

Can you do the following for me:

Go to Tools > Options and turn on Debug Logging (if not already). Then a few times just select a game, then press CTRL+E, wait for the Add/Edit window to show, then hit cancel. Open and close the window 3 or 4 times, then close LaunchBox and see me the log file produced. I'll review see if there anything obvious going on in that.

Here you go.   I tried editing/closing after switching between two titles, but also tried opening/closing the edit dialog on the same game as well.
