Flickering display since the last updates

[Steven]

could you send a link to your settings file (help/support/view settings)
and if you use a custom layout or view, a zip of the AppData\Saved Settings folder

PM with link sent.

I did try both with and without using my usual custom view and it didn't make a difference as far as I could tell.

i cant reproduce any issues but will have another look later in the week
you could try removing mb_Spectrogram-Display.dll or at least renaming it to .dll2 so it doesnt load at all

Just to chime in and state that I get the same graphical glitch as mrbenn.

I'm not sure it's plug-in related as it occurred after an update and I've no new plug-ins.

It's not a bit deal really, the screen just takes a while to catch up when switching to different views. It's worse on an older machine running Win 8.1.

Hi Steven,

Sent you a PM with those files.

i still cant reproduce any issues, however i have taken a guess

@mrbenn, MusicBee should start up much faster for you

[mrbenn]

It seems your guess is correct, as I cannot get the issue to occur at all now.

And yes, it starts significantly faster. I think from 2 or 3 minutes to a few seconds. Thank you!

Are any of these fixes backwards compatible for 3.5?

the flickering didnt happen with v3.5
the load time improvement has also been made to v3.5 but would not be a common improvement

Thank you for the response Steven.  I'm still on 3.5 and don't have any issues.

Hello everyone, me again,

a short information on my part:
with version 3.6.8906 P (update from 2024-05-20) the problem with the flickering no longer exists.

Thank you very much!

Best regards
