    Problems with Win7 RC1 DTB Addin

    I am having a few problems with addin during the beta/RC. 

    1. It often will spike the CPU at 40-60 percent in the exhosthhost.exe
    2. I get a "cannot skip past end of show" when watching live tv where the showanalyser is only a part of the way through on live tv.  i have the supress the error message in the settings
    3. Autozoom does not work

    A couple notes:

    • I skip cablecard and processed files 
    • I only watch on the Xbox 360 or Linksys2200 extender.
    • I turned off the throttle in my "Every File" profile as I set the maximum (single) process in SAV1 settings.  It tends to handle live TV well.
    • I noticed it would try to scan my DVR-MS movies on the same drive...but different  folder off the root.  It wasn't in the watched folder and add-in scan settings was set to "none" (don't prompt to scan...since DVRMSToolbox will pick itup in 60 seconds) 
    • My Addin settings is "quiet mode", meaning it doesn't handle keys...it just skips if the comercial file if it exisits...otherwise you wouldn't know it was installed. 
    • 64bit Win 7 7100, HDTV ClearQAM or Analog scan, Clena install of Win 7

    Any suggestions how to avoid the CPU spike issue or what logging I can enable for the add-in troubleshooting?

    Thanks Mucho!

    John
