Title: Scrolling freezes MusicBee if it takes too long
Post by: JMuller on April 07, 2021, 10:04:37 AM

Scrolling forward or backward in a song takes an unusually long time (up to 1mn), freezing MusicBee's interface in the process. I tested this on MP3 and FLAC files. The reason for it is most likely that my files are on a remote server that I am accessing through a fairly slow WiFi. This does not happen when the files are stored locally. Still, I do not think the whole interface should be frozen, since it causes Windows to prompt the user to close the process.

Try increasing the buffer size of the track or loading the entire file into memory.
