Hi thanks I'll try c cleaner first before doing anything else. The
problem isn't playback for a long time, I can set up playlists and it
will play for hours but the lagging starts when I constantly browse
between the songs or search, when I add stuff to playlists and
constantly shuffle stuff around and all this while songs are playing.
