Metadata slowness

[Tempus Fugit]

Has anyone else noticed that metadata is slow to download recently? Is one of the data sources offline?

Re: Metadata slowness

Thanks. I experienced that, and already have the upgraded version. Something else seems to be going on.

Is there a way to access the metadata menu to uncheck AMG without having to insert a CD?

Re: Metadata slowness

You need to insert a CD to access that menu.

I have tested R16, it took 10 seconds to read metadata from all 4 providers.

I've had the same thing start happening. The change occurred when I had to build a new rig, which put me into a Ryzen 7 chip and Windows 10 (was running an E5 Xeon on Win7, prior), but otherwise am running on R16. For me, it takes a little while. Possibly around the 30-45 second range. It's not that big a deal to be, but I figure it's worth noting.

Try unchecking providers until know which is causing slowdown.

Re: Metadata slowness

I've been chasing down some odd problems and finally had to disable HPET. (Kind of a long story there, and I may get into that in a different thread later)
Since then, metadata has loaded as fast as it used to on my old rig.
