More on qtIdleRate...

It appears that setting the qtIdleRate to a high value (long update
interval) has no bearing on audio-only files played by the player, while
reducing processor use about 10 - 15%.  Is there any disadvantage to having
a high qtIdleRate value when the only files played by the player will be
audio files?
