Re: Attempt to add 60k files makes UI being frozen

Oh sorry for the late reply, I forgot to come back here, I will reply your message, thanks :) I had a small sized MIDI collection here, mostly game Midis that are easily extractable, nothing too rare, but last month my hard disk failed on me and I lost everything. I learned my lesson now, always bac...

Re: Attempt to add 60k files makes UI being frozen

I am a MIDI music lover and collector myself. Particularly original songs (not covers) Would you care sharing some of these MIDI tracks? Or point me in the direction to where I can find original MIDI music out there? Or perhaps uploading a ZIP with your favorite 100 tracks to Dropbox or GoogleDrive?...

Re: "Portable" Smaller VLC focused only on x264/mp4 videos?

Forgot to mention: feel free to redistribute the file and pass the link forwards, re-upload, etc. The purpose with this is to help not to claim credit. Forgot to include MD5 checksum, version is 3.0.1.1 dated June 2020, the checksum should be the same as the original download. Including it for the e...

Re: Attempt to add 60k files makes UI being frozen

I remember having this issue a while back, Winamp can do it just fine (yes I still use Winamp... version 5.666 to be specific LOL) I think it's because VLC tries to read metadata on mp3 files before importing them to the list, and this brings the CPU to a halt when you're dealing with +10k files.

"Portable" Smaller VLC focused only on x264/mp4 videos?

Uhm... hello :D New to the forums, if this is not the right sub-section to post this, let me know :wink: I downloaded the latest VLC and I noticed installed on disk would require 40+ MB only for the translations (locale directory) I stripped out those and left only the english ones, saved some space...
