    Hi all

    I was just surfing around tonight running Voyager, with lots of
    windows open, and I noticed that when I scrolled around the music
    didn't slow to a distorted crawl like it used to :-D I thought I was
    listening to the CD instead of the mp3s of it I made, but no the CD
    isn't in the drive!

    I don't know if this was done on purpose but all I know is my mp3
    playback issues are solved! Kudos!

    This is on a PegI-April2 G3@600 by the way..

    How much Ram you Radeon has? 32 or 64MB?

    have you updated AHI ?

    i have no problem with mp3 playback and browsing on my Peg1 April2 (had a Radeon 9250 and switched back to Voodoo 3000 and it worked fine with both cards).

    I've noticed much improvement on Peg 1 with some previous update
    (don't remember which one), to the point that it's now possible to use
    it fully while playing music. Scrolling around in CED disturbs
    playback, moving a few pages at a time is ok though. Well, moving some
    windows too much also causes problems. :-/

    As far as I know, these problems should all be limited to Peg 1,
    though. As the Radeon driver has been updated for 1.4.5 I guess it is
    possible that this issue was improved for (some) Radeon users.

    Indeed they are, the Peg2 does not have any problems with this whatsoever.

    Speaking about device driver improvements - has anyone besides me noticed improved speeds in networking? Or am I only dreaming? ;-)
    MorphOS is Amiga done right! :-)
    MorphOS NG will be AROS done right! :-)
