VS11 Slow loading images

[TubaDad]

Has anyone else ran into the problem with loading large numbers of images, not large images, but a lot of images in VS11. I am loading a lot of images to make my annual slide show for the HS band and I am running into a problem where the images start loading quickly (1 second each) and after about 150-200 images you start to load slower and slower as much as 70 seconds on image #300). I don't remember having this issue with VS9, which is what I used last year.

I tried loading the same thing in VS10 and it is much better on the load. There is a recognizable slow down, but nothing like VS11. Before you ask, I would be fine with doing the slide show in VS10, but running in Vista VS10 crashes on me too much to get it done.

I am trying to avoid learning another program to get this done by Thursday, but it is getting closer and closer to that point.

Any help will be appreciated.

Heck, I haven't even had VS11 long enough to change my tag line.

Hi

I would just like to know if you have been able to solve your problem with VS11 slowing down when loading lots of images. You probably have seen my thread on the VS12 getting extremely slow when you have lots of clips in the library and of course if you have some advice I would appreciate that.

Hi

Are you loading to the library or to the timeline?

I have just tried both methods and the timeline is incredibly fast compared to the library.
