I'm using Plex too and have a fast machine.
Anyone had any luck getting this "fix" to work?

I deleted
+ Control.IsVisible(899)
from MyVideoNav.xml, I'm using Plex and it works for me.
Edit: it works in info view type, but not in showcase.

I have a Core 2 Duo 2.66GHz, 4GB RAM, 20" iMac and yes, Plex lags badly when you try to scroll fast.
But I like to use instantaneous fanart, because now I have in my home menu Animations, HD-movies, Bond, Classics and Concerts instead of movies. And other than Bond fanart behind Bond movies doesn't feel right (or other movie art behind animations or movie art behind concerts). And because I have these categories, I don't have to scroll so much anymore.
If I could use custom fanart with different smart playlists, my system would be perfect for me.

I tried to change "Control.IsVisible(899)" to "Control.IsVisible(199)", to make the delay before fanart appears shorter (if I completely remove the line, Plex lags badly).
But, with "199" no fanart appears, what are the correct values to input, to make the delay time shorter (and is the (899) number miliseconds or?)?

Ayla, it lags becuase there isn't a delay anymore... u need to change the animation in that particular Control... those controls are found in Includes.xml... u should search for which ever one ur looking for... for instance... in info it uses Control 899, so search for id="899" and change one of the animations delays, which is currently 3000, so u could search for that as well, if u wanted... change 3000 to 1000 or so...
i know this isn't super dooper helpful and a bit hard to do, but unfortunately, i'm limited to talking to help out... no code to reference... sorry

Thanks xb2iris! Works great.
It can be found in here in Includes.xml:
<include name="movieinfo3">
<control type="group" id="899">
...
<effect type="fade" delay=" " (for fanart)
<effect type="slide" delay=" " (for info panel)
