My Problem is...
I play a MP3 from the Album Folder without any problems

now i what to open the DIV MP3 Folder ... ( on this Folder there are ~3500mp´s) in the background the mp3 from the Album folder is playing..

When i can see the flie list ( from the div folder ) the playing mp3 is playing choppy Eek ?!?!? Are there to many files in the Folder ?? Or is it a bug ?

Many Thanks for your anwsers :-)

Presumably XBMC is attempting to read the tags from all 3,500 mp3s so it can display nice filenames. On a relatively humble PC all that network activity can slow the system down enough for you to notice. I'd split up the mp3s into separate folders so you don't have too many mp3s per folder.

System settings, Music, File lists, and disable the "Enable tag reading" option.
