nodelayload and nodelaycomp will make your initial startup time much longer, but you won't have to wait for textures to load or components like the media player or navigation to load the first time you use them.

Background MP3 loading simply preloads the ID3 tags for mp3 files in the current queue. After all the tags for all mp3s in the queue are loaded streetdeck will be able to scroll the list to the current playing mp3 whenever it changes. Its not too useful if you always play your queue in order. The flag was only added because background MP3 loading caused some crashes on some computers. It should be stable now and is on by default and the flag is now -NoBackgroundMP3. The dialog hasn't been updated though. The ID3 tags will also be loaded whenever you scroll the list to an area with files that haven't been loaded yet. Once all the ID3 tags have been loaded or you scroll to the end of the queue, the background loading thread will end until you change the queue.
