I recently made the switch from PCDJ VJ to Virtual DJ v6.01. When I scan for BPMs in Virtual DJ its painfully slow taking a good minute or so for each mp3.
This was reasonably quick in PCDJ VJ and in the demo of v5.21 of VDJ.
Is there a way to fix this or is it a known bug?

Are you running the default performance settings ?
Also, have you downloaded the Registry Tool ? - http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/2170/Registry_Tool.html
fyi - Might have a VJ Skin for v6 up sometime tomorrow ... if you you are still comfortable with that look :)

I have tried the performance settings on various options and doesnt make a difference.
I have also tried the registry tool and still painfully slow.
It only scanned about 100 songs in 8 hours last night.

have you scanned your system for any malware. A good prog use is Superantispyware full version is free for a time. Seems to find stuff others can't. I have found in the past how such nasty bugs can slow your BPM scans as with other software. Just an idea.
The other question is are you scanning from a external drive also what is the speed of your system.

Yes have already checked and the laptop doesnt go on the net nothing was found. I even opened the collection in PCDJ VJ and tried scanning for BPMs and it was very quick just version 6.01 of VDJ it is slow in.

Well telling me what you have tried and not answering the questions doesn't get a closer to a resolution ...
What are the Performance Settings you are using ?
And great that you have tried the Registry tool, but what did you do ... maybe you didn't select the options that I would recommend.
I can't see your system ... so I need to know what is selected in order to give you a suggestion as to what may or may not be causing the problem.

Sorry thought I had answered the questions asked.
In performance I have set it to fastest and the next one to the right.
Sound card auto, safe mode on, overclock on.
optimise for quality, simple algorothm
48-44khz basic
master tempo fast
With the registry tool.
Speedload ticked, clear effect on load checked, white cursor checked, nvideafreezebug checked, wheelmode checked.
All the rest is either off or on default.
resyncshift=882 directsoundsafe=441 ignore drives=0 history timer 20 pitchrange=33
I would also be very interested in a reworked version of the VJ skin, especially if it had vertical waveforms and 1440x900 resolution

Ok I have solved it, but also think I may have uncovered a bug.
I am using the the pro hi-res skin. If the skin is maximised to fill the screen the scanning is really slow, however if its not maximised it runs properly.
Tried it with other skins as well and all have the same slowdown behaviour when maximised

Uncheck the Safe Mode and Overclock -- you don't need them...
Download this skin -- (3) 1440x??? resolutions -- http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/8090/V6_Pro_Modified.html
And if you are interested - 1024x768 -- an old favorite for you - http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/8337/VJ_v6.html
