Re: 100% cpu usage

I tried it out on intel and g4 and it worked using that link. I have no idea what is causing on your machine, so now I'm going to have to get into paranoid remote debugging mode. If you've been using firefox, can you try quitting it when you run Audacity? Can you also verify that the build date is c...

Re: 100% cpu usage

Thanks for trying it out, george13. This time I was able to replicate the bug on my intel mac. I was testing in debug build before, and the version you (and the rest of the world) will use is release. A classic mistake that should be done at least once a year. I fixed it on my intel mac and checked ...

Re: 100% cpu usage

I fixed a bug that was causing crashes/freezes on my PPC. However, it looks different from yours, since on mine it always fully summarizes the waveform and then freezes.. I'm still wondering if your aug 16 download included my aug 15 changes, since the text you gave for the status bar message is dif...

Re: 100% cpu usage

1. It happens only with uncompressed files (aiff or wav) with others it doesn't happen at all (mp3, flac). But with aiffs or wavs I'd say it's over 95%. Actually, the only files which it does NOT happen with are very very short snippets (5 seconds or so) which load instantly. 3. Yes, repeatably and...

Re: 100% cpu usage

The version of Audacity I'm using is dated 16.08.08 4:23. And this problem is happening with all kinds of uncompressed files (not just very long aiffs, that was just the first I happened to try). I had it occuring with short wavs (50 seconds), and aifs created by Quicktime and Audacity itself, 16 b...

Re: 100% cpu usage

George13, thanks for the info. Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 11:50 AM was a change that fixed some issues. I wonder if the build you tried had those? So if I understand this correctly, the only currently open problems are with aiff files, and only certain ones are giving you trouble, and the problematic beha...

Re: 100% cpu usage

There were a lot of changes, so it may be fixed now, but the changes won't be propagated down till the new alpha on the 18th. Anyway, I haven't seen it, please let me know if there is some set of reproducible steps I can take to recreate it. If it was related to saving, or after saving, that used to...

Re: 100% cpu usage

When the next alpha comes out on August 1st or 2nd, that bug *should* be fixed.

You'll also be able to control the loading point of the striped blocks.

Re: 100% cpu usage

Hi george13, I'm the student developer Gale was referring to. Thanks for posting those screenshots; I was able to eliminate a minor bug. The ODManager's thread is not supposed to be created until it is needed. It was being created for things like "generate noise", when it shouldn't. However, when it...
