Description Wadzinski Tom 2009-09-25 08:37:46 UTC

now that the clock has become the default SS, its startup time is more of a glaring problem. It takes almost 2 seconds for it to start up.

One low hanging fruit optimization idea is to not generate two windows (for transition), but instead do the snapshot technique that NowPlaying uses for fading between states.

Description:
- no longer swap between two windows
