You just summed up what ive been trying to say in one simple sentence

Hitcher Wrote:That's exactly what background loading does.
Mediastream and PM3HD both load movie posters fast enough for similar views and fast scrolling though, and the Aeon TV Muliplex doesn't lag the same way - so something has to be different... ?

It's Aeon Auriga at the start and your Hitched mod after the switch - see how much faster the thumbs load in yours? How'd you do that? I love it!

Whenever i delete my thumbs or reinstall XBMC from scratch, i just let it
sit there in a view so that it creates posters for my 1600+ movies and
11000+ TV Show episodes...

expensive. I have an Antec 900 case with 5 drives in it and 2 Sans Digital TowerRAID TR4M-B with 4 Drives each. They are super cheap ($169 at NewEgg) and Seagate 1.5TBs are also the best bang for your buck right now...
