    Hi, I noticed similar cpu peak usage when animations are enabled. Try to disable them, e.g. on TsGauges.

    WMP 2008.I don't know if its animation.Open demo and watch cpu usage.

    It's havier here,because I used the progressbar from Vista,but I like the glow/animation.Please optimize it,Serge!

    Try the attached skin please, CPU usage was changed?
    Please compare with WMP 2008

    No changes.It goes from 0 to ~30% every 3 seconds.

    I think the problem is not in the skin.

    We must be sure that problem is in gauge animation.
    Could you disable this animation and check a CPU usage?

    Yes,I removed the sGauge from your demo's mainUnit and cpu is 0%,but if i go to 'Scroll and progress',I see 3 progressbars/sGauges there and cpu starts jumping from 0 to 35 again.

    The problem still exists in the demo of AlphaSkins 6.44. Go to the progressbar frame and check your cpu.

    Please check the link below.It's a guide how to create a vista-like progressbar in C#.I tried it in C# and it doesn't use cpu at all.Maybe you can rip the animation part from there.

    Thanks again for support,hope it will be fixed soon! <img src="style_emoticons//wub.gif” style=”vertical-align:middle” emoid=”:wub:” border=”0″ alt=”wub.gif” />
