Tips / Tricks for displaying images quickly
Refering mostly to fanart here, specifically on extenders.
I'm putting together an update for one of my SageMC themes, and I'm trying to get the best performance I can on my extenders. The background images (which are typically 16x9 type jpegs) seem to introduce some lag when scrolling through a list. The images aren't full screen - they are actually about 46% of the screen width. Given that extenders have a 940x540 UI, I've sized the images down to 440 width and display them as is (ie no scaling) - but it still seems to lag a bit. Are there any other ways to speed things up? btl.

the best is delay the loading of the background fanart by 5 seconds after user inactivity has stopped. This will speed up scrolling greatly if that doesn't work use the Phoenix API to scale the image size down to 50% or so. The first option is best IMHO me and razor both use it in our addins. Easiest way is fork checkitem = focuseditem wait(timetowait) if checkitem== focused item then set variable and refresh do it in a focus gained or listener hook is the best let me know If you have any questions on my phone so may not have been clear. |
