Update Label Information Every 5 Seconds
#1
I'm creating a skin for the Raspberry Pi based off of Confluence, and all of the changing info on the System Info screen makes the CPU go crazy high. Is there any way to make those only update every 5 seconds or something like that so it won't spike the CPU?

I was thinking using a silent alarm or something, but I'm not sure how to do it.

Thanks!

not really, those labels are refreshed internally by xbmc and it's not something you can alter in the skin.

whatever you do, don't do it the raspbmc way.
those guys should be dragged through the streets and be humiliated in public.

I think 5 seconds is little too long, but we definitely could add some time interval. In addition we do some silly things like updating gpu vendor label each frame (like it could change, heh). That being said I don't think this will change anytime soon as this has really low priority.
