Windows 7
ATI 5400
Dharma RC2
For a while now XBMC was soo sluggish in the UI for example if i hold down arrow on my keyboard in a 300 movie list the fps would drop to 5 and it would skip and move down really slow. I thought a SSD would help but it didn't so i tried XBMC live and wow that was super smooth no fps drop. I tried everything on windows and i couldn't find anything that helped until i tried to run xbmc in windows xp service pack 3 compatibility mode and it now works just like XBMC live. DXVA 2 still worked as well so this looks like what i will use until i figure out whats going on.
just wondering if anyone else has this problem and why does this work?
