    FFR has been freezing for seconds in the middle of songs, what could be wrong? Help?

    It's not a bug in FFR so it doesn't go in those forums I don't think. FFR has been stopping at random points in each song (a different point in each song though), and every time I play a song, it freezes at the same point every time for about a second, causing me a miss almost every time. This is making it impossible for me to AAA anything, especially long songs as they have the most time for freezing...I have no idea what's causing this, it just started about a week ago, help please!! I can't even AAA Inspector gadget tonight though every time I play it I don't get below a perfect until a freeze, it's embarrassing...help!

    EDIT: I'm using firefox jsyk. It's worked fine before...and there are no adds
    It's getting better all the time
    I used to get mad at my school (No, I can't complain)
    The teachers who taught me weren't cool (No, I can't complain)
    You're holding me down (Oh Oh)
    Turning me round (Oh Oh)
    Filling me up with your rules (Oooh)

        Does this happen only when you retry the song?
        Then it's lagging from submitting the round info from the last try.

            This might seem obvious but.. clear your cache and temp internet files? There's an option for that on your browser.

              Generally, it's the amount of processing power your browser is taking. Are you using Firefox? It's most likely to happen with it. Happens to me all the time, especially since I used Instant Messengers on it.

              So I just use a Firefox clone to run FFR alone.

              I AM ASHAMED OF MY STUPIDITY AND MUST COMMIT SEPPUKU. FORGIVE ME, FFR.

                it's your computer choking and it's the reason I get bruises on my hand and dents in my desk.

                  I use Firefox as well and it lags occasionally and I've had it freeze a couple of times, but I usually don't have that problem all that much, I tried Chrome for a bit but it almost always lagged on that.

                    This happens all the time to me. It does it in the exact same spot for me every time. So my replays looked like this

                    MegaScorcher 340 - 12 - 4 - 6 - 19
                    MegaScorcher 44 - 1 - 1 - 7 - 19
                    MegaScorcher 48 - 4 - 2 - 6 - 17
                    MegaScorcher 37 - 2 - 1 - 8 - 17
                    MegaScorcher 40 - 2 - 0 - 8 - 15
                    MegaScorcher 36 - 4 - 3 - 11 - 13
                    MegaScorcher 42 - 4 - 1 - 8 - 14
                    MegaScorcher 43 - 3 - 1 - 7 - 18
                    MegaScorcher 35 - 1 - 0 - 8 - 17
                    MegaScorcher 330 - 15 - 0 - 20 - 5

                    I just go into IE and it doesn't freeze at all. Sometimes FF doesn't want to load FFR either and it just stays at the loading screen so I just use IE for FFR now.

                      Yeah I usually don't get any lag on IE at all.

                        Firefox isn't that problems retards. Firefox is actually a quicker browser than IE. The problem is probably one of the following...

                        Your computers processing power
                        Another tab you might have opened
                        Advertisement
                        Any other process on your computer that takes a lot of CPU power
                        Your computers Graphics card can't handle the quality (lower the quality)
                        Your computer could just suck overall

                        Any of those are more legit reasons than blaming Firefox..

                        P.s. I use Firefox and I AAA FMO's and Zero AAA's FGO's (yea clearly the problem is firefox fags)... kthxbye

                          None of which could explain why Firefox lags and IE doesn't.

                          Your personal experiences are completely irrelevant to the matter. It's the same as saying that since I experience lag in Firefox, Firefox is the problem. You're just saying the exact opposite.

                          Obviously the problem lies within Firefox here, but in no way does that mean everyone will experience it all the same.

                            I wasn't blaming Firefox, I actually use that only, I just get lag sometimes, very rarely.
