Dealing With Long Database Delays

I think I have a decent solution to very long delays with the database concerning the 'Tracks' selection
most of the time is spent formatting the list so I've added a submenu with sorted filenames, titles, and the slow title & duration (the existing 'Tracks' functionality)

I'll get it committed in the next few days after we've had chance to test it a bit

Thanks very much.  Is that a link to a test version I can try?  If so, I'm too thick to figure out where the download  link is.

Bilgus:
No thats just a link to the patch
here is a iPodVideo Build if you want to try it

I tried it, and the Filename and Title options do indeed produce the list almost instantaneously with my ~3200 db entries, which is most excellent.

I was able to get similar results with my tagnavi_user.config file, as described in my post "Dealing With Long Database Delays - Part Two" [https://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,54450.0.html].  My method also produced the list in about one second.

But my solution has the lousy shortcoming that it requires that the track files are all in a known location that is hard coded into my tagnavi_user.config file.  That was totally acceptable for my own personal use, but it's obviously not a good generalized solution.

Is there any difference between the list that is produced by the original method vs the list that is produced with the new 'Title' option?

Bilgus:
the key here is skipping formatting but I see that you were still using formatting in yours
so there is clearly something still going on that might be worth investigating a bit further
