Forms :: Speed Up Loading MP3 File Info Into ListView
Apr 27, 2010
It has the ability to recursively grab all .wmv and .mp3 files in any chosen folder, and add them to a playlist.When opening the playlist, my program adds all the songs to an array, then starts adding the songs to a listview, categorizing them by song, artist, album, and genre, using a dll to access the ID3v1 tags on the .mp3 file.It can successfully create playlists of thousands of songs at a somewhat okay speed, the problem is loading that into the categorized listview.It used around 75% of my friend's CPU while loading his 5k+ song playlist into the listview, and it never finished after loading it in for a couple minutes (it auto updates as it loads, because it is done in a new thread.) It never finished because his OS has a bug where, if the CPU usage is over 100% for more then a few mins, it BSOD's, but that's beside the point.
His CPU, by the way, is a quad core 2.33 GHZ processor.The listview loads thousands of songs by using a lot of CPU [low amount of RAM, less then 40MB 99% of the time], and it does it slowly. [code]I've already redone the sub once or twice to speed it up, and at the moment it's 2-3.,
I have loaded the file, split the delimited text into to separate arrays. One array is for the' object name', the other for its corresponding text.The text is no issue. My issue is that the 'object name' would look something like "form1.label1, form1.label2..." This loads fine, but I can not figure out how to get the 'object name' to be used as an object.I dimensioned the array for 'object name' as an object, but this won't work:
objectname(i).text = "..."
Looking at the values of the 'object name' array, after each listing it says {string}I need this to work this way because the file is loaded with the idea that it could be in any order, longer or shorter then another, etcetera.
one I'm trying to load a INI file to a combobox then into a Listview but I'm returning with an empty variable. I have a INI file containing the following format:
Does anyone know of anyway that it would be possible to speed up the process of loading forms.With VB6, forms (simple ones) was extremely fast but with VB.net, the initial loading of a form (even the simplest one) takes very long. Although it gets better once it's loaded once and the reloaded the next time (almost instanttaneous), but the first time loading gives a bad impression to any user that .net is actually much slower.
I was currently writting a Cyber Cafe for the client side which start up with a form that maximize and block all the client control like shortcut key and other security. It's fine to work in my pc and it take only about 5 second to startup the application and lock the client. But when i run the application in a pc that installed with games, it took about 40 second to run my apllication. I notice in task manager panel, the process need to read the whole application before it could load my first form. Is there any idea i can speed up my loading time? I have try to set the process priority to "real time" and startup using batch files, but it still need 30 second to load my first form.
How do i exactly check internet connection speed.I have searched around google and found out a method w/c will Download a file like 1mb size, then it will calculate the speed.
In the frmPanelSchedule form's load event I am loading 84 labels, 84 comboboxes, 420 textboxes, and 84 buttons.
The form takes a long time to load.Is there a way to speed up the loading of the form?
Private Sub frmpanel1Schedule_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load ' create pole labels lblPole(1) = New Label With lblPole(1)
So, now I've exactly used this code to load an image from a path specified. Still, i seem to get a blank form when i run. im quite sure about the path and the existence of the file. Also, the exact piece of code is also available at: Draw an image : Draw Image2D GraphicsVB.Net Tutorial So, now do i have to insert a picture box to se the loaded image. Its like.. ive used the graphics thing to draw the image. so i reckoned that picture box was unnecessary.
I want to create a form that, when starting, will display in a ListBox the content of a txt file. I know the file is read because I can display the content in a MsgBox. Here's a snippet of what I tried so far: Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim filein As String = "MyProjects.txt" Dim objReader As New System.IO.StreamReader(filein) ListBox1.Text = objReader.ReadToEnd objReader.Close() End Sub When I debug my app, ListBox1 is empty.
I have one form which calculates something and displays it into the listview but then when Print button is clicked another form will appear which has a differently layout but same information. And on that print form there is another listview, how I would load the contents from the first listview to the printout lsitview which is on a different form.
I'm writing a program in VB.Net and loading the info into a SQL database. Debugging it works fine on my machine that I am programming it on, it connects to the database and runs through all the info perfectly. However trying to get it to run on another machine it will not connect to the database. I realize the reason for this is the connection string, it's looking specifically at the file directory for the database. How do I change this so that it will function on any machine. The program is only intended to run on one machine at a time and not over the internet.
I am working on a media player, and I would like to setup a local playlist feature. I am using a single ListBox and its "Display-" and "Value-Member" properties. The display is the song's Artist and Name, and the value is the song's file path (i.e 'C:UsersUSERMusicetc.').To write the file path to the .txt file, I believe I can use the following code:[code]
I am making a program, obviously, and I require some assistance. I found an explanation on how to read information from a Text file and have modified it for my needs. Here is my (modded) version:
Public Function GetInfo(ByVal playlistname As String) As String On Error Resume Next Dim PlaylistInfo As String
Im trying to make my btn add all the file info to the listview. The listview has : icon + file name/type/bytes/directory. How would i make my Btn open folderbrowserdialog and let the user add it. It will then add all the info to the listview. How would i do this?
I'm working on a project at the moment, where there are a variety of sections. Each section has its own window and WPF controls. Each window has a tab control, with tabs to 'View', 'Add', 'Edit' and 'Delete' records. The 'View' tab has a ListView which is populated with records from a database (using LINQ to SQL).
im trying to edit a code so that i can display user info in a listview rather than a listbox because listview has some options i want to use , i have 2 errors one in Public Sub removeClient and one in Private Sub AddClientToListview i would be very greatful if some could give a helping hand to resolve these errors
vb.net Imports System.Net.Sockets Public Class form1
I have a codes that calculates DownLoad speed and UpLoad speed kb/s. I would like to implement this kind. I also want to put such kind of graph. Any article or links where can I start building my own like that.
I am making an application that loads lots of data into a listview. It takes a while to add the data (over 2000 items).Is there a more efficient way of loading these items rather than the standard way? Maybe a quicker control or something.
I'm trying to build an app using WPF and I want to display a load of data from some tab delimited log files in a data grid style. I know there is no DGV control for WPF so after watching a few "forms over data" videos on the MSDN site I figured I should be able to do it using a ListView with DataGrid tags within it.So after messing about with the XAML code for a bit I managed to create my column headers in my ListView etc and I can load data into it fine if there's just one column... but obviously I need more than one column.
So I thought fine I just create my extra columns and then use ListViewItem and ListViewSubItem classes to create the content for the listview and then add them to it. However, it seems that ListViewSubItem does not even exist in WPF and the ListViewItem doesnt seem to have any way of editing separate column data. For example, if I set ListViewItem.Content = "some text" and then add that to the ListView it just sets "Some text" in all 5 of the columns I have.All of the examples on MSDN are using data bound listviews and I dont want mine to be data bound I just want to manually load it with items.
I'm having a problem with loading my MS Access Database. I can get it to load but it won't load in a row. My friend told me to try this but it puts all the information in a column instead of putting all the information spread out accross the row.
Here's my code: Dim lb_Connection As New OleDb.OleDbConnection lb_Connection.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;DATA SOURCE = pass_database.mdb" Dim lb_SelectCommand As New OleDb.OleDbCommand [Code] ..... Also I'll attach an image of what the program does when I load it.
i have a listview and everytime I load a 10,000 data my listview hang up. Is there any alternative on how to load data to listview that will not hang up.
I'm new to programming so go easy on me.. I am wondering if this is possible to, send info that the user typed into a textbox to another forms textbox. for example you type into a textbox on form 1, you click a button to take you to form two and it shows what you typed in as a rich textbox, a label or whatever works, and have it be able to change each time you type something in to the first textbox.
I have two forms named are form1 and form2 (form1.h / form2.h)There are a textbox and a button on form1 and form2.When I clicked the button on form1, it must fill the textbox on form2 and when I clicked the button on form2, it must fill the textbox on form1 how can I do it,when I define #include "Form2.h" in form1.h AND #include "Form1.h" in form2.h, it gets me an error "error C2065: undeclared identifier.
