DD Shows Error Message on start when CPU is heavy loaded

Postby watchTV » Fri Jul 06, 2007 8:04 am

Hi!

When CPU is very busy, DD won't start, it just displays a long error message with an option to restart (which again causes the same error message). To start DD I need to pause all CPU consuming processes like video encoding or archiving. The only solution - you need to start DD, quickly open task manager and if you have fast fingers change the dvbdream.exe's priority to high or even realtime. Any suggestions or do I want too much from a freeware? It's not a big problem for me, but may be a problem for others.

Thx for any feedback.

yes, DD has a automatic freeze detection. so high cpu usage triggers it.
I think, this is not a big issue since logically you cannot use DD, while having such a high cpu usage. try to increase DD priority (Main Menu->Options->Priority)
DVB Dream - because I have to dream about having time to code it
