I'm running mythmusic, and functionally, it works fine. However, I have
two problems with irritating delays.
My system is an AMD 1000+ with 512 RAM and an SBLive. It accesses my music
archive (180 GBs) via NFS mount.
When I first loaded it, I left it be for about 4 hours for it to
categorize all the songs. I could watch it go through the directories on
console, and life was good.
However, now, when I select MythMusic from the MythFrontend module, I get
about a 2 minute delay before the SelectMusic/PlayMusic/ImportCD comes up.
If I switch to console, I see that it is categorizing the same few songs
that don't have id3 tags. So - the delay is that MythMusic is attempting
to add these to the database each time I load MythMusic. It would be nice
if I could find a fix for this.
The second delay that I'm having is once into MythMusic, when I select the
SelectMusic option, I get an approximate 1 minute delay before the select
music screen comes up. This is a more tolerable delay, but it would be
nice if it wasn't there.
Function wise, I also think MythMusic should have a "clear playlist"
option in addition to the edit playlist option. Currently, if you build a
huge playlist, you have to go and find all the songs and deselect them.
