Whole PC lagging on wallpaper change #86

Closed TheAlp closed 3 years ago

TheAlp commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug Whenever the program switches wallpaper (currently set to every 30 minutes) my whole PC lags for a second or two.

To Reproduce Enable slideshow (currently set to shuffle if that is relevant)

Expected behavior It would be preferred if changing wallpaper didn't cause a systemwide slowdown.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Do you have perspective corrections enabled? If so, try to run a profile with perspectives disabled. Those unfortunately can be fairly taxing on the CPU and I can't do anything about that.

What kind of a CPU do you have?

I got a ryzen 5 2600x. I don't have any perspective features enabled. Using the separate image for every display feature atm.

Try to disable the automatic theme color under personalization -> Colors? With that on I have stutter on my Ryzen 3900X desktop as well, and I found discussions online that people with other wallpaper software have had similar issues since Win10 1903.

This automatic theme color option: image

Seemed to do it yeah. Hope they fix that issue in windows.
