100% cpu load while trying to play music

**djphibes** · 07-15-2008, 07:51 AM

Hello all, Ive searched this forum, but couldn't find anything that really related. I have a fresh install of RR and the skin I'm using is DigitalFX 3.0.

When I open RR, all is well and CPU hovers around 10%. I click on Music, and nothing is listed at all. I don't know if this is normal or what, but if I touch anything from that point, cpu goes to 100% until I close RR.

I can play music if I open winamp, fill the playlist, close winamp, and open RR. I can go thru the playlist with the controls at the bottom just fine, but if I go to music, nothing is seen, and if I touch a button, it locks up.

Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Is your file extensions placed in your RRconfig?

Can you elaborate on that for me? I'm not sure what I'm looking for.

iList problem maybe?

open up rr config. navigate to music page and make sure whatever music file ext. you are using are input in the box. And definatly as Sal said, could be an ilist prob.

Sal may also be right, if setting the file name extensions does not work:

Make sure you are using the latest version of Road Runner available in the stickies at the top of the forum from 5/27/2008.

In the Road Runner root folder, open the rr.ini file, and place this on a new line at the end of the ini:

usedx=false

This will turn off the iLists feature, as it can cause problems on some hardware.
