If you want to test, then scraping library is the best way, although any jpegs displayed for the first time will use this code.
It should be a little quicker, and could result in better quality thumbnails (resized once, rather than twice).

..and i already have killed installer of the previous build
(2013-04-04, 20:23)onetootreefor Wrote: ok i have done some testing today on my buffer issue. I connected my media pc (windows7) directly into my router via 1Gbps ethernet. No buffer...no buffer on NFS or SMB or ANYTHING.... GREAT NEWS! I hooked up my wireless adapter on the win7 media pc which is sitting directly next to the router. I have a full 300Mbps connection. It buffers like crazy on any movie with a video stream larger than 10Mbps. Doesnt matter if its via smb or nfs. i tried both via ethernet and both via 300Mpbs wireless. This makes NO SENSE...the wireless connection is surely strong enough to handle a 10Mbps video stream, but why will it only work when I connect it via 1Gbps ethernet? My media pc usually sits in a room 2 away from my raspi/router/tv. and it still gets a strong 240Mbps connection in there. Can anyone explain this?There's more to it than just bandwidth. Wireless networks tend to have higher latency than wired networks, so even at the same bandwidth the wireless will feel slower. In your case, the bigger issue is likely that wireless also requires more processing overhead for error checking and correction than wired. I'm using MoCA adapters to extend wired connections over the coaxial in my home. Even with an effective bandwidth cap of 100Mbps in that setup, I get much better performance than my 300Mbps wireless. Powerline adapters are another option but my understanding is that in some conditions those can be just as problematic as wireless.

I can understand that my macbook pro decodes video better than the raspi and has a larger capacity for buffering larger files, but movies with a 12Mbps - 21 Mbps video stream shouldnt be a problem for the pi since it can handle it fine on a 1Gbps ethernet. in reality a network stream effectively 30x larger than the video stream it shouldnt have a problem streaming the video wirelessly with the latency and error checking or not.Did you have alwaysforcebuffer set to true? If not, as I understand it, neither freememorycachepercent not cachemembuffersize should impact files from network shares. Note: I'm not challenging you with that statement, more looking to the experts to confirm or broaden my understanding of how it works.
