kitmac Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Quicklook in Snow Leo is a CPU hog! It crashed on me already and If I put folder as a stack on the dock with Video files in it, it pushes my CPU to 100% trying to create previews. I think it gets stuck trying to create previews for the HD MKVs in the folder. I can't believe Quicklook still doesn't work for MKVs. But I betcha they'll be happy to provide that for an extra $9.99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xor_2 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 first of all on what oryginal Apple hardware have U tested it? None? So do I and I got KP too We can't just judge SL now as it isn't even RTM and we have no good quality osx86 patches to it. If SL run in full 64-bit kernel mode it would be much faster, but for now it seem quite the same as Leopard to me, just minor changes in interface, some I don't understand like no disk icons on desktop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW does finder glitch and lose icons every once in a while???? Reboot/shutdown resets my bios and it thinks my cpu is running @ 4 GHZ.....

Takuro Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Quicklook is noticeably jerkier for me in 10.6 than it is in 10.5. Stacks are smoother though. Very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very strange that Snow Leopard doesn't work properly on your machines that are designed to run Windows. That was very inconsiderate of Apple. I don't have any issues at all so far and I'm running 10A380 as well. Oh wait, I'm using hardware that was designed to run OS X. My bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fab Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 snow quicklook is the best feature for me works great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsalac Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Well, I SOMETIMES have got the same error... It sucks...but I am actually looking forward to SL. The performance is amazing (at least in X86_64 ) I got about 3170 points in Geekbanch with my XPS M1530 (2GHz T5800 ,4 GB DDR2-800 RAM, 8600M GT). This is a huge difference compared to 10.5.7.

Oh well, I guess I keep it for nostalgia. OT: Not even Apple supports Apple hardware. Read up a it about how the Radeon Macs are getting screwed out of OpenCL even though they are capable of running it. Next time, don't be so quick to be such a fanboy.

Maybe the title of this thread should be Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L, E8400 Intel C2D, XFX 9800GT 512mb, Audio Realtek ALC888, Lan Realtek 8111 Sucks On Snow. And a prerelease Snow at that.

getyourcarwash Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 seems like Apple made some changes in Quicklook for SL compared to Quicklook in Leopard because I can't get any Quicklook plug ins to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
