ME major slow down when using IG/Twitter Feed

Konaloa720

Hi Nick, Been getting a major performance issue (Video preview windows slow down, Main video output slows down/ stutters, waveforms become laggy) when using the flyboost IG/Twitter feed on the newest version of ME but runs fine on version 2.4 . Any suggestions on how to set up ME to perform better? Using Scratchlive 2.5 2010 15in MBP Mountain Lion OSX 8GB RAM / 500GB SSD

That's very strange. Have you tried version 2.7.1 as well? It may be that it can't handle the GPU accelerated video as well as displaying the Quartz Composition (your computer might be too underpowered for this). You could try disabling GPU accelerated video (it's in the Advanced section of MixEmergency's Preferences), then restarting MixEmergency and seeing if this makes any difference.

Yes it also occurs on version 2.7 I disabled the GPU accelerated video and restarted ME, still a significant slow down (even after i turn the off the IG/Twitter feed). Version 2.4 seems to be my stable version, really want to up use 3.0, but my current video gigs love the feed aspect of my video deejaying. Any more suggestions?

That's odd. I can't imagine what might have changed between those versions with regards to this. Would it be possible for you to try version 2.5.1 and 2.6.1 so we can find where the problems might have started? http://www.inklen.com/download/203/MixEmergency2.5.1.dmg http://www.inklen.com/download/214/MixEmergency2.6.1.dmg

sorry I almost forgot about this, but no problems so far with 2.5, i never got around to using 2.6, will try at a gig this week.

ok finally used 2.6 and that was slowing down/ stuttering with the IG feed. 2.4 & 2.5 are stable for me. Any insight on this?

I'll have to look back through the change history.
