foobar hangs at beginning of songs

Finnaly someone with the same problem like me, I'm 99.9% sure it's the trackinfo_mod plugin. Never had the problem before switching to it. And I can't really switch back because all the great functions in it. 
I just like listening to music

I had a problem like this, it was the playlist_tree that was set on "Automatically refresh" (right click on the tree and choose edit, and untick). It may be the same for you.

Ah, thanks.  This should definetively be added to the "how to make foobar quicker" type thread, wherever that may be.

Ditto, until I removed it and it still happened.  Besides, if you set the trackinfo mode to follow cursor, you can click to your heart's desire and it still updates in no time at all.

Do you use Audioscrobbler?

I have another problem, foobar freezes at the beginning of songs. This happened for th first time a few days ago. Looks like there are some problems with foo_prettypop

Try one component at a time and try until it "stops", then you know which one is causing the problem.
