Here is a large thread about it:

https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/18222/the-classic-problems-browser-flickering

No solution yet. Only a few workarounds:

• Avoid filter / search
• Avoid sorting the playlist for anything other then #
• Keep playlists small

It's atrocious and Traktor dev team have been aware for years.

You and me and everyone else too, brother.

A workaround that amounts to "don't use the feature" is not a workaround.

You may sort it by BMP, consolidate it and sort it by #. It wil be sorted by BMP.

If you want to keep playlist in untached # order, copy the playlist to another playlist and then sort, consolidate and sort by # again.

A workaround that amounts to "don't use the feature" is not a workaround.

If one uses small collection, flickering is almost invisible. So, another workaround is using small collection.

You're really annoying me so much!

I have now reinstalled Traktor on my second laptop. Fresh OS and Traktor with a new library (the original demo content only).

The flickering is clearly visible when I open the collection, for example like here just sorted by bpm:

No, it's not!

We told Kubra many times that a small collection still has flickering, even on a fast computer. He acknowledges it and a few weeks later he says it again :D

I don't know why though.

If you call this flickering than.... No help. It just redraws here and there. And beside that, I wrote that one has to consolidate after sorting and sort by #.... And even fresh Traktor install has over 700 tracks/samples in collection. That is, say, 60 LPs.

@lord-carlos

I have agreed that there is flickering if one edits tags.. Not that it is there under any condition with decent size collection. And it is understandable, that the bigger collection is the more visible it will be...

The problem is on the roadmap, but actually gets no priority. :-(

yes, i call this flickering because it is flickering... what else? you just bringing the same lame "work arounds" which aren't even that. just truncating the browser to limit its natural function so that the problem occurs as little as possible. among other things: who, please, who has fewer than 700 tracks in their library? I refrain from accusing other users of trolling just because of netiquette, but what you are doing is very much in that direction.

Kubrak

The solution is easy. If one minds "flickering", he might use different DJ SW. Or wait whether NI makes it better or not. "Flickering" is in Traktor for several years, so ....

My guess is.... Maybe Traktor 4 Pro.
