Hooked on Huskers Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 No problem at all until 3 weeks ago or so. Now it takes about 30 seconds to load (or more). Both FF and Chrome and Adblock or not. Any cure? My wild guess, the culprit was right column video (just above "Nebraska Features" location) Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Yeah, I've been experiencing the same thing. And I think the video you mentioned is causing it. I don't have a fix for it. But I noticed that when my computer is hanging up one of the svchost.exe processes is consuming a ton of resources. Like 40% or more. So I have just been ending that svchost process in the windows task manager. This causes the video box to fail, but my machine starts loading quickly again. It's a work around that seems to work for me, not a solution. : 1 Quote Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 We're going to have to do some testing to confirm it's the player (but all indications is that it is), and then contact the vendor. The last code update we implement for it was in January, so if it is the culprit, it must have been a silent update that the vendor pushed out. Sorry for the problems - we'll see if we can get it resolved relatively quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment

Neither of these themes have the video feature. Quote Link to comment
Hooked on Huskers Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 Dummy here. Please explain "Change Theme to either 'QB 2014' or 'HB Mobile" Quote Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 At the bottom of each page is a black bar. One of the options is "Change Theme". If you click it, you get a list of available themes. Give QB 2014 a try to see how it loads without the video player - the video player is not installed in that theme. That's not a fix, but it will tell us something. What would really help is if some members would: 1. Time the load for the main page using the current default theme. 2. Report that load time in this thread. 3. Let us know both the OS you are using, as well as the browser. 4. Multiple browsers would be appreciated, if you have them installed. Chrome, Safari, Opera, IE, etc. Once we have a few reports, I'd like to remove the video player from the current default theme and leave it off for a couple of days. Then, have folks re-run 1-4 and post the new results. The reason I'd like to do it that way is that the other themes not only don't have the video player, they don't have some other things we've added to the default theme. For all we know, it could be that the problem is a conflict between the video player and something in that's in the default theme that isn't in any of the other themes. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I started with the main page loaded and did a basic refresh, three attempts each:Windows 10 - Chrome - Regular theme: 31s, 34s, 29sWindows 10 - Chrome - QB 2014: 2s, 1s, 1sWindows 10 - Chrome - HuskerBoard Mobile: 1s, 1s, 1s I tried testing in Microsoft Edge. There weren't the same visual cues so it was difficult to get an exact time but I had basically the same results. Quote Link to comment

AR Husker Fan Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I'm getting results similar to Tom - but only in the last 12 hours. It seems the issue may have resolved itself, though. Is anyone still having problems? Quote Link to comment
Red Dead Redemption Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I've been away from the board for the past 3-4 weeks, but now I'm back. Coincidence? I think not. The board went through withdrawal during my absence. I've got Brawndo. It's what posts crave. Quote Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 There you have it, folks - all blame to Red Dead... Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Seems to be fixed for me as well. Quote Link to comment
