Being <busydialogdelayms>integer</busydialogdelayms> no longer is an option is there an equivalent anyone knows of? The spinner uses way too much CPU.

"busydialogdelayms" is still supported in current Kodi master (Helix):

Terminal

anepu:xbmc master u= anaconda$ grep -nr busydialogdelayms xbmc/
xbmc//settings/AdvancedSettings.cpp:700: XMLUtils::GetInt(pElement, "busydialogdelayms", m_videoBusyDialogDelay_ms, 0, 1000);
anepu:xbmc master u= anaconda$ grep -nr busydialogdelayms ../xbmc-gotham/xbmc/
../xbmc-gotham/xbmc//settings/AdvancedSettings.cpp:708: XMLUtils::GetInt(pElement, "busydialogdelayms", m_videoBusyDialogDelay_ms, 0, 1000);

I don't really know why they say it was removed in Gotham. It wasn't.

It expects milliseconds though. Make sure it's inside "video" too, e.g.:

Code:

<advancedsettings>

    <video>

        <busydialogdelayms>2000</busydialogdelayms><!-- 2 seconds -->

    </video>

</advancedsettings>

I hadn't tried it in RC3, I was told it was disabled.

Thanks for pointing out that it isn't.

You got me interested, what does busydialogdelayms do?

It slows down showing busy dialogs (spinners) freeing up valuable CPU resources, it allows anything that uses this to load faster.

Interesting. Thanks a lot!
