I'm loving the interactive Christmas lights in the forum banner!

It feels a bit early but...Happy Christmas everyone!

I wish I could agree with your positive words, but it kills my system completely here (Odyssey 1.23 r5 on OS 4.1u3, X1000).

Shortly after entering the page with those coloured lights and snow, I get a DSI from "[OWB] MediaPlayer", everything slows down, and even if i "Ignore" the DSI it stays slow with 100% CPU usage. I can close Odyssey, but it doesn't stop the 100% CPU use, so all I can do is restart the machine.

Wasn't this a problem last year as well?

We have same issue, every year, so I end up disabling it, .

Is this any better?

Yes, much better, thank you!

I did try the new Odyssey 3 Alpha, BTW, and while it did not produce the same crash with MediaPlayer as before, it did crash and lock up after having shown a few pages.

But it looks like there's potential as 3.0 matures, so maybe we can try again next year :-).

P.S. BTW, even just the snow does use 100% CPU on this X1000. But as long as it doesn't crash ...

Tweaked again, how is CPU usage now?
