I have a medium size music collection of about 60K songs and foorbar takes a considerably long time to start. I originally thought it was a network issue and moved the music to the system running foorbar, but the change in start time is negligible. When I say slow, I am talking into the 100+ seconds.
Have people experienced this as a problem with:
1) large collections
2) old version (as I say 0.8.3)
3) networking issues (which I believe i have discounted by moving files locally)
4) other plugins: Active; Continuator and Volume Control
For other plug ins, I do have a few installed, and because it has been so long since I have configured foobar2k I am not too sure what is safe to delete and what is not. Are large number of components a cause for slow starts? These are what I have available but not active:
- Advanced Limiter
- Convert 5.1 to Stereo
- Convert mono to stereo
- Convert Stereo to 4 channels
- Convolver
- Crossfader
- Crossfeed
- Downmix channels to mono
- Dynamics Compressor
- Equalizer
- Gap Killer
- Move stereo to rear channels
- Pause between tracks
- Resampler (PPHS)
- Resampler (SSRC)
- Reverb
- Reverse stereo channels
- Simple surround
- skip silence
- Soft clipping limiter
- Sound Touch
Should I remove those I don't use anymore? I am not sure about dependencies and it's been a while since I configured fb2k
Is it a database issue and what can be done to improve it if it is?
Any assistance would be good
