* When browsing, any archives need to be extracted to identify the content. This can be very slow and even cause out-of-memory crashes with large archive files. | * When browsing, any archives need to be extracted to identify the content.

* | * On the Pi this is now optional (enabled by default), enable or disable with: {{highlight|bordered=yes|[[Settings/Appearance#File lists|Settings -> Appearance -> File lists -> Support browsing into archives]]}} | ||
* If your library does contain rar files, beware of disabling - you may need to rescan library after enabling again. Also note that subitles in rar won't work when disabled. | |||
* Note: using rar files doesn't save any space as video files are already highly compressed, so just extracting them would be the preferred solution. | * Note: using rar files doesn't save any space as video files are already highly compressed, so just extracting them would be the preferred solution. | ||

| Question=Coloured square appears on screen | |||
| Answer= | |||
* A coloured square may appear in the top right corner of screen to warn you of problems that should be remedied.* More info [http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=82373 here]. | |||
* A multicoloured square means the voltage is too low. You should try a better power supply or cable between power supply and Pi (Note: under-voltage detection is only supported on B+ and Pi 2) | |||
* A red square means temperature is high (85'C) and overclock has been disabled. This is pretty rare, but can occur in a hot environment, with a case with no ventilation and with the Pi on hot equipment. | |||

| Question=Audio or video dropouts on HDMI | |||
| Answer= | |||
* If the dropouts only occur when playing video with "adjust display refresh rate to match video" enabled, then try adding hdmi_clock_change_limit=20 to config.txt | |||
* If the dropouts occur when cpu is busy (e.g. scrolling through library) then an insufficient power supply is most likely. | |||
* If the dropouts occur randomly, or you have interference visible, then try config_hdmi_boost from [http://elinux.org/R-Pi_Troubleshooting#Troubleshooting_power_problems here] | |||
