How to make Video Players start with "Above normal" process priority?
Hello!
How to make Video Players (for example, WinDVD) start with an "Above normal" or "High" process priority for uninterrupted video playback on a slow computer? I have a barebone player which always starts with the "High" process priority and plays video uninterruptedly. How to make IE playback video with "Above normal" or "High" process priority? Best regards, Dima +79035093892 |

Best regards, Dima +79035093892 Process explorer: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sys...sExplorer.mspx Once installed, you can right click on any process and set not only priority, but CPU affinity as well if you have more than one CPU/Core. However, I do not think this will fix your problem of intermittent playback. It can't hurt to try. |

Create a shortcut on your desktop, in Win2000/XP:
start /abovenormal \path\processname, in this case WinDVD.exe Enter "start /?" in a command prompt window to get a complete list of options. "D" wrote in message ups.com... Hello!

I want to set the priority only once for every player, not every time during the player running. How to make IE playback video with "Above normal" or "High" process priority? How to know which IE process in the list will playback a video? Best regards, Dima |

Enter that exact start line into Notepad and save it using a filename that has a .BAT extension, e.g. windvd.bat. Then create a shortcut to that batch file on your desktop. |

Best regards, Dima +79035093892 Don't know if this would help. install PRIO.EXE from http://www.prnwatch.com/download.html. It's a program that merges into the task manager. Change the priority setting in task manager as usual, however, This program will remember your setting and when you restart your player, it will be at the wanted state. Hop this helps. (just in case, kaspersky does not allow this to run unless you deactivate proactive defence in regards to the task manager) |
