Someone with Intel Core G620 2.6Ghz, One question.
#1
Hello, I am trying to mount a little HTPC low cost but enough to play all kind of fullHD video.

My little HTPC will not run any games, only multimedia, so its enough with Intel HD Graphics inside of CPU, i need someone with this CPU Intel Core G620[ http://www.htpcforums.com/index.php?act=...ODE=00&f=3 ].

I used search and i dont found any good restul about this CPU only. I want someone to try a little clip on MKV at 1080p encode on h264 Hi10p profile, wich this kind of encode its not playback with DXVA, so its have to playback for software assisted by CPU Intel Core G620.

If there is someona with this CPU, i would appreciate to testing this clip [ http://www.wupload.es/file/2651705782 ] hotd-op-1080p-hi10p.mkv, on MPC-HC with this setup [ http://coalgirls.wakku.to/?page_id=4611 ] or latest XBMC and tell me your result.

I want to know if this CPU its able to playback this kind of video at 1080p without DXVA.

Thank you so much

Hello.

I'm using G620 CPU with integrated GPU. I made a test your test clip file (hotd-op-1080p-hi10p.mkv) with latest XBMC 11 Beta2 on Windows 7 x86. Video played very well. Its smooth and without any frame drop. Avarage CPU usage between %35-55. After test I notice my DXVA2 enabled but I tested again with DXVA disabled and result are same. And I retest with DXVA enabled. So as you see that kind videos cant be played with DXVA and XBMC played with CPU even DXVA enabled.

G620 is really very good cpu for HTPC. Very silent even with stock slim cooler.

I hope my tests make sense.

Thats sound great, thank you.

Even if you have DXVA enable, you cant decode Hi10p (10 bit color depth profile of x264) with DXVA, but your test sound great with only 35-55% CPU Load, i was expected more, on my Desktop E8400 this video its playback with 50-60% CPU Load.
So i see the G620 it is similar to my Desktop E8400, thats sound great.

Only one thing, can you test on another player? If you can, i think if XBMC works fine, its should be work on another player.

Thank You.

Will test this on Intel G530 with onboard GPU on xbmc ubuntu 11.10 when I get home ..
The normal XBMC log IS NOT a debug log, to enable debug logging you must toggle it on under XBMC Settings - System or in advancedsettings.xml. Use XBMC Debug Log Addon to retrieve it.

VLC should be problem with internal codec, I dont know how to setup VLC I usually use MPC-HC with this setup http://coalgirls.wakku.to/?page_id=4611 for watching this kind of video.

It works perfectly without any frame drops. CPU usage is from 20% to 70% but is usually below 50%.

Is that playing the file within the stock xbmc player?
