every now and then when i load a song onto a deck the waveform wont fill in, and it progressively creeps along as the song plays, also the time remaining will say much more than i know its is, ex. a song that is playing and I know no more than five minutes will tell me there is fourteen minutes remaining? any ideas on how to remedy this?

hey dude I get exactly the same problem... It drives me nuts cos you dont know how long you have left for mixing... I'm surprised there are no hits for a solution to this one... Hopefully a teamer will pick this up

Track loading: In options set the Max load to "Always", this means it will fully load every file regardless of the size/length. However loading large files require a lot of memory and a good CPU, so experiment with this setting.
Time remaining: Are you playing files that aren't scanned? if a VBR file isn't scanned and is loaded onto a deck the software uses the file size (assuming the file is 128kbps, 1 meg = 1 min), so a 10 meg VBR file would initially have a length of around 10 minutes until fully loaded (see max load), once fully loaded the time info is correct. The best solution is to scan files before playing them (when you are mixing).
