OK, finally got it to reproduce. Been trying on two Windows 7 PCs and one Windows 8 PC, but couldn't make it happen. I think the issue is exasperated with each additional player in your player database. With a small database (132 players is what I was using), the issue is not compounded enough to make much of a difference. I noticed the dialog takes a little longer to sort the players, for example, but that's it. Once I moved to a database with 1000 players, I could easily see the issue.
Those of you experiencing this, how many players are in your player database?
