History and refresh rate

Hey,

When using a 1 second refresh rate and hovering over an entry in the history list 'the background lights up'.
Everytime the UI refreshes 'the background dims down' again AND does not respond to clicks for a small period of time.
This happens as well with higher refresh rates, just less frequent.

Please fix it ;D

Greets,

Don't use 1 second, it's just too fast.
By the time this is the highest priority problem, we'll fix it :)

I use 1 second to get the feel of working with 'a real program'. I'm used to seeing things happen on screen when things are being done.
Now I'm not saying SABnzbd+ is not a real program, but I hope you get what I mean.

This doesn't happen in the queue, because when you hover over an entry in the queue the refresh rate seems to be 'on hold' until you hover out again.

Thanks for the reply :)

OK, it's not that we're unwilling to fix issues,
it's just a question of priorities.
It will be fixed eventually.
The difference between the queue and history does show that it's solvable.

About the 1 second remark.
The price to pay for a Web UI is that it's more expensive (in performance) to keep a tight sync with the app.
It's a compromise.

Use web sockets (http://dev.w3.org/html5/websockets/) instead of TCP/HTTP. ;)

Perhaps for 1.0?  8)
