Hi there.
Certain tracks in mAirList make the software freeze when changing tune, making it unable for me to use the software when it’s switching to a new track. I’m wondering if there’s anyway to fix this? I don’t think it’s related to the song size as some songs as small as 5MB cause issues. My computer shouldn’t be to blame as it has an Intel i9-10900X processor.
Here is an example of the problem, I am switching from a jingle to a song.
Note: the tracks themselves do not stutter at all when switching, it sounds fine. However I cannot use the software to activate my microphone for example while it changes track.
Thanks for reading, any help would be very much appreciated!

It normally freezes for at least 2 seconds, sometimes around 4/5 seconds. It’s been appearing since I started using the software a few months ago and I have Home Studio version 6.2.8.
Edit - I’ve just seen 6.3.2 is out. I’ll update to that version to see if it has the same problem.
Oh, and it would also be good to learn more about your audio configuration. WASAPI, DirectSound, ASIO? Does it also happen when you set all outputs to the “No audio output” device?
Thank you for your reply. I have Norton Antivirus. I only do radio as a hobby, so I have a Rode NT-USB connected to my computer via USB and it uses WASAPI. It also plays back into my headset using WASAPI too. The issue still happens when I set all outputs to "No audio output”.
Ah turning off the album art fixed it, thank you so much!
Whilst you’re here, I have one last ongoing issue…
The longer the software is open, the higher the delay is between me speaking and the software picking it up and broadcasting it. Refreshing my input device temporarily fixes it but I have to do it several times an hour in order to not get put off by it.
If you wouldn’t mind helping me fix that then I’d be extremely grateful, thanks again!
Oh, and about the album art - it is cached in a file called AlbumArt.db in the mAirList data folder (see config -> Advanced -> Data Folders). Can you check its size? And there are no networks drives involved here, I suppose?
