PM reading folders really slow
« on: October 22, 2023, 11:09:26 AM »
Hi, recently when I've tried to open a contact sheet in a folder, the page takes ages to load the contact sheet, which opens the folder with only the thumbnail showing the file names, the takes quite a while to slowly load the images. If its a folder with many images, the contact sheet will freeze and I need to go and prod 'Force Quit" and the box says "Photomechanic6 has stopped responding"
If I open a folder on the desktop, I get the 'sorting...' message and this can take a few minutes too.
I've also had a contact sheet not even showing most of the images in a folder, and when I tried to apply metadata the message was the images weren't in a format PM could recognise. Later that night, a PM opended the fodder no problem.
