Im getting the same, the cache part is working fine, its just taking ages to reload the cached images.
Is there anyway to reduce the size of the cached images to maybe speed it up?
Hi guys, still not solved. I think XBMC developers should know about the problem, because it appears even on Windows XBMC and on XBMC installed over UBUNTU 10.x, so it's not just the XBMC Live issue.
Basicly picture thumbnails are generated over and over again. Well maybe not generated but 200+ images in a directory causes directory listing freeze the computer for several minutes each and everytime.
a tipical scenario:
main menu -> pictures -> vacation2010 (480 images, 5Mpix)
freeze for 3 minutes
thumbnails show up
selected one image to view on fullscreen
image shows on full screen
pressed ESC key to return from full screen to directory
freeze for 3 minutes
thumbnails show up
now I can finally either choose another image or go to parent directory
ok - go to parent directory
go back to vacation2010
freeze for 3 minutes
.........
the only solution is to turn off thumbnail generating completely.
A friend of mine runs XBMC 10 on old UBUNTU 9 and it works as it should for him. 370 high-res images in a directory - thumbnails appear in less than 1 second.
It also works like charm on my old xbox
Ive also created a ticket on trac.xbmc - http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/11330 but no reply
