The "massive stutter" problem is caused by XBMC not the app. Constellation is the only app witch can sync a library od 2k movies 3k tv episodes and 8K albums under 10s (of course this is hardware dependent ie on a ATV2 this will take 5 minuts )... to the point the problem only happens if you are not using hardware acceleration i.e. VDPAU... mysql also helps in this on a separate host. The json serialization takes to much CPU power and there comes the "massive stutter" efect ...
I.e. I don't have any of the problems at all im using:
2x ZBOX id11 as a frontend
1x Atom 1.6 dual core on my backend(sab + couch + ... + mysql)
1x E350 powered unraid server pro
I don't know whats the best way dealing with this... make the library sync slower or just give a option to not start it on app entry?
What kind of hardware are you using and on what os ?
I am running it on a Giada Cube N3-D2OB (Ion chipset, Atom 330 1.6 ghz dual core with 4 GB of ram and an internal 120 GB HD more specs here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6856176002) and Windows 7 32 Bit. It's hooked up to a Synology DS211J Nas.
I have DXVA acceleration enabled in the system settings of XBMC and it runs everything like butter even 3D blu-rays.
I think the best option would be to give an option to not sync the library upon connection and just make it manual. I don't know about other people, but I have tendency to browse my collection in xbmc anyway instead of looking through the app. So I would rather have the remote function work without an issue over having an updated library on my phone. Having an option I think would satisfy everyone. Although slowing it down might help, but I couldn't tell you without trying it.
