Just updated to the latest Gotham release and my smart playlists appear to be compiling slowly under MQ5. Is there a few options I can shut down to speed things up.

If I use the preset MOVIES it populates almost instantaneously however if I replace it with the MOVIES playlist that contains less Movies (splits out family), it takes maybe 10 seconds to display?

Thank you Andy

PS Is there an option to have the submemus permanently on display as in NOX which I was previously on?

PPS Loving the RIGHT view...one of the reasons coming back to the MQ skin.

I can’t really see any reason why playlists would take longer to populate on MQ5 than any other skins.

I do find that the time it takes is mostly down to CPU power.

For example: My machine with an A9 loads playlists almost instantly. On an android box it takes about 5 - 10 seconds.

There’s no option within the skin to have the submenus always visible.

hello, how can you change a extrathumbs?



you can put a logo and extrathumbs in the Collection?




sorry for my english

For extra thumbs, I think you'll need to change these in the 'extrathumbs' folder, then reload the movie and run AD.

For collection artwork, if I recall there is a post a few pages back by devilshura describing how to get logos to show. I don't think it’s currently possible to have extrathumbs show for sets. Could be wrong though.

OK so gone back to Nox to test and same issue with playlists. Work fine on previous version of Gotham. Since updating yesterday to latest version ALL playlists on both skins I've tried have been really slow. As I say worked great prior to this so guess I'm stuck with it being an XBMC Gotham issue....

Re the extrathumbs, under the extended info set up these do work as I've seen pictures, just dont know how haha

Re thumbs not changing...if they are named the same thing eg change thumb1 from one image to another, XBMC will still have the original image tied to the file thumb1. Try deleting Textures13 under Database - in windows thats your local drive>users>pc>appdata>roaming>xbmc.userdata>database to clear the original image
