Slow track loading from Playlists

Hi all,
Just after some advise.... When loading tracks from my playlists in Cross DJ it is taking a long time for the track to load up (approx 20 secs) All songs have been analysed.

I have a collection of over 50,000 songs all on the HDD and have a number of playlists.

When I load the tracks from the main music collection they load really fast.... Do you know if they is anything I can do about loading the tracks faster from the playlists??

I have optimised the collection and that doesn’t seem to have had an impact

Any suggestions would be much appreciated
Alan

Approx 100 to 300 songs. Not all the songs on the HDD are in playlists

It's a known issue that is 'caused by the big number of your tracks in mediabase and if your tracks contains cd covers. We are waiting for a solution.

What is classified as big? This is the first time I've read that this is an issue and I wonder if this is the problem I am having.

As i said the Team knows about it and is trying to solve this.
The problem starts when your mediabase is more than 5000-6000 tracks and includes artwork. Then, loading tracks from playlists freezes Cross (about 3 sec if you don't have artwork) untill the track loads to player. If you load tracks from mediabase there is no problem it loads quickly.

Thanks for your replies. I will wait to see how changes are made. At least I know the reasons which is a step forward.

sfronti has found that by not displaying the cover column things was improving a bit.
There have been some things done in this area for the 2.3. We'll see into beta/rc how it works for you guys.
