I'm running an AMD Athlon 1700+, with 512Mb RAM, and XP Home SP2.
Running in the system tray are MSN Messenger, Grisoft Anti-Virus, Logitech QuickCam, Skype 2.0.
This is my main machine using to rip all the music, so that's going on using WMP10.
Hope this helps? Chalky

Is you music collection local or on the network? I'm not sure I can help here but I'm trying to flush out the questions so that maybe others can give some input.....

Hi SK,
Just wanted to comment on the EQ ... very nice addition!!, sound output is so much more robust as compared to before without EQ settings available. Also, thank you for the changes regarding the display of track titles and the fix on the credits. ;D Much appreciated.
However, the bad news is (which I'm sure you don't want to hear) is that the EAX problem hasn't gone away with the release of the new MP3 playing controls. :( EAX still gets disabled and no sound output from SJ Jukebox after first song till it's restarted . I wonder if perhaps I'm the only one with this problem? Haven't seen any mention of it from the other users out there.
Anyhow, thanks for your hard work.

SK,
Does the player software you use have a read a head buffer for the mp3's? This would greatly reduce hard drive use. I don't know if any computer mp3 software does this or not but would be nice and besides the computer definately has enough memory.
Thanks,
Jukeman

Glad you enjoyed the update! I have passed your problem on to the creators of the MP3 playing control, so hopefully they should be able to help. It certainly is a strange problem!

I'm pretty certain that the entire MP3 is loaded into memory when it starts playing...I haven't noticed any HDD activity while a song is playing. That's why on some older systems, there is a small delay between songs, as it's doing all the work at that point. I could be wrong on this, however! If I wanted, I can FORCE this, by loading the song into the MP3 control from memory already, but I don't think I need to. I would just be replicating what is already happening (i.e. loading the entire file from the HDD into memory, then playing that).
However, that's only the currently playing song, none of the other songs in the queue are looked at until they start playing (if that's what you meant). I could also load up the song into memory as you queue up the song, but I think that would cause slowdown at the worst possible spot : while a song is playing! At least how it is now, the only pause is in between songs.
I hope that covers what you were asking!
