When trying to move both the Mixer and Settings window on 2.1.1.0, there's insane lag. The video below is me quickly flicking the mouse and letting go and shows just how bad it is. The window takes forever to move and doesn't even get to the same final spot.

Video of it

This is on Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview Build 18860.rs_prerelease.190315-2228 and doesn't happen to any other app, only EarTrumpet.

Can you try turning off transparency to see if this is an issue with the acrylic component?

Turned off transparency and it still does it.

@bgiesing Hm, can you provide display driver version via Device Manager?

We can reproduce this on Windows 10 19H1 and 20H1 builds, even with the built-in Emoji picker dialog (WINKEY + .). Reported this to Microsoft.

From my testing it seems that the USB-reportrate of the mouse causes this issue, setting the mouse-reportrate to 125hz will make it so there's no laggy movement of the window anymore. This is a similar issue MS office has had for a while (especially excel).

This is currently being tracked by Microsoft via the Feedback Hub https://aka.ms/AA4fmz7

I pinged them for an update.

Microsoft has backported the 20H1 fix to 19H2. It will be part of KB4505903 soon. (OS build 18362.263.)

I have installed the update KB4505903 and the issue still isn't fixed. The emoji window (which was previously also laggy) no longer has lag, but the EarTrumpet Volume Mixer and the settings windows are still laggy.

I can confirm this is still an issue in 18362.267

Yep, Microsoft didn't fix this the way we hoped. We're investigating.

Same here on Win 10 Home 1903. Bug didn't occur for me on 1809.

I have the same issue on Windows Home 1903 (Build 18362.499). Please fix this.

I've used ear trumpet for awhile and just did a reinstall of windows and came across this problem for the first time. I was able to fix my issue by going to Advanced System settings>Settings under Performance>Adjust for Performance>OK

Hopefully this fixes it for others who still have the issue.

@moosenoises actually, only disabling "show window content while dragging" is totally sufficient! :) All other graphics settings can remain enabled :)
So it really appears to be related to some "drawing" operation by Windows 10

Any update? This bug makes the app nearly unusable

@Raphire I set my mouse to 125 Hz reportrate and this issue remains, though dragging Office suite is fine.

It's an issue with the backdoor composition API in Windows we used to get Acrylic blur into our windows. There's no good alternative which makes this difficult to fix in the short term. Sorry about that.

Build 1909 checking in here. This window moving is a crippling bug. :-( Please fix, thank you

Having the same issue on OMEN 2018 with GTX 1650. Even using GTX as it's GPU renderer does not fix it.

@riverar
In Win 10 20H2 19042.685, the built-in Emoji picker dialog moves smoothly and EarTrumpet settings window still move slowly.

Looks like an still Win10 bug to me, since the mouse cursor is in the final window render output. Might be an different issue with the Emoji-picker.

just installed the experimental dev build, seems to have been fixed there, at least for me
edit: looks like it just disabled acrylic while the window's being moved, which still works anyway, at least as a temporary fix

This also happens for me. Also to note, that the CPU usage skyrockets when this is occurring. :)

I wonder why this is treated as a Windows bug despite the fact that the bug is only happening in this application?

I now got upgraded to 2004 (19041.1052) and still have this issue. Can we finally just remove the effect causing this and be done with it please?

This is a bug with the composition APIs in Windows 10. (We are one of the few apps using these undocumented APIs, hence why "it only affects us".) The experimental/dev builds of EarTrumpet have a workaround that turns off acrylic when moving windows, if you're interested.

I'd love to, where to I find those builds? I can't see a "releases" tab in this project.

Quickest way to get dev builds of EarTrumpet is via the link on this page https://eartrumpet.app/. Hope that helps!

Also it's fixed in current Insider builds of Windows 10 as well. (Finally, I know.)

How do we know when to update dev builds? Is it automatic or will we get notified about it?

I was testing some stuff with some windows' performance options
It seems that disabling the option to Show window contents while dragging
can sort of fix it

This isn't the best way to fix it, but at least it's something
Also I just noticed someone posted the same thing way above, oops :p
