View Full Version : <thumbsize>512</thumbsize>

I have thumbsize in my AdvancedSettings.xml set to 512.
Sometime in the last couple XBMC builds I have been running into an issue of missing icons.

Yes I've tried cleaning everything :nod:

It only happens on views with allot of icons on the screen at once which makes me believe it's memory related.

In PMIII Icons and DVD Icons views are missing icons.

Anyone else have this problem? Is 512 too high?
I have not touched my cache settings.

Thank You

A debug log will probably tell you one way or the other.

I have mine set to 512 as well, and it makes for nice, sharp icons (on a 4:3 SD tv, anyways). I haven't run into any problems with disappearing icons, though.

I forgot to mention I am using 720p. The debug didn't show any errors.
It appears any resolutions below 720p are fine (no missing icons).
Currently I only have 31 movies loaded.

At the top of my movie list in Icons View my stats:
FreeMem 748/65536, FPS 60, CPU 12%.

In the middle of the list my stats:
FreeMem 12012/65536, FPS 60, CPU 12%.

Bottom of the list my stats:
FreeMem 18668/65536, FPS 60, CPU 12%.

768 out of 65536 seems a bit low?
Playing with cache settings doesn't appear togive any results.

Yes, it's extremely low. Some of those thumbs must be huge.

Looks like most of the movie icons are 90-99 KB.
400x600 give or take a few.

Ok just went through all the thumbnails in the video folder.
The largest is 98.7 KB. The entire folder is 12.6 MB.

Just for kicks I'm going to try and roll back to an older version of XBMC.

It's not the size in kB, it's the size in pixels that counts.

Well, older versions of XBMC did the same thing.
The largest icons I have are 433x604 & 438x597.
Going to try 256 instead of 512.

Just FYI,
Changing thumbsize to 256 seemed to have fixed the problem.
Thanks for the help guys.
