Problem when loading from USB HD!

Joakim Frandsen 9:02 PM - 7 November, 2008
When I'm loading a track in ITCH from my USB harddrive there is a little lag of about 5 seconds. Is this because of my HD or is it a bug in ITCH?

Are you drag and dropping outside of ITCH?

Or are you loading within ITCH?

Are you using a MAc and an external drive formatted with FAT32?

Yes! Is it wrong? Should I format it?

This is a know issue with Mac OSX newer than 10.5.2 (IIRC). This is an issue caused by Apple. Workaround would to either use an older OSX version or to change the filesystem format of your external drive.

I've changed the filesystem format of my HD and it works perfect now! Thank you very much :)

Because ill be using an external hard drive as well with my mackbook pro and a wndows laptop for backup, I was thinking about formating my hard drive to Fat32 in order to use my HD in windows and Mac os
Thanks
