My first bet would be if it happens again to open the resource monitor, go to the disk tab, add a checkmark before system to search for the files its accessing and seeing what it might be doing. It might give some indication where to start searching for this problem. Might not, but i think it would be worth a try. High usage of the system process could also indicate driver problems or many other issues.
I would also be curious if any other my other audio wallpapers, or if any other audio wallpaper and/or webwallpapers have the same problem.
Your suggestion does show that system is constantly accessing the C: drive, however I'm not sure what that would mean for my system. The issue only arises when running this wallpaper. I REALLY want to use this.
Is there a way that I can send you system logs or something? I think you would probably have a much easier time sorting the issue than I. I'm a hardware guy. Not really software.
It seems that when I apply your wallpaper, it also causes System to use ~8% GPU. While when I apply another wallpaper it says that wallpaper32.exe is using X% GPU
I can try some stuff over the weekend to see if I can reproduce anything, but my hopes are not high as I really expect it to be system specific. I even tested the performance on a 10 year old AMD, half the cpu power you have, before publishing it. So that 30% is very abnormal.
No background image used at all.
It happens all the time. Audio playing or not.
While I'm using the window preview "System" is using ~16% GPU and "wallpaper32.exe" is using ~10% (presumably because of the other wallpaper that's currently applied. BUT System is on'y using about 3% in this preview mode instead.
I reposted your question on the forums in the hope someone might have a clue. You can see that post here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/431960/discussions/1/2632849318061704818/
