I installed XBMC 11 on Asus R2H and it uses a lot of CPU time.
R2H is quite old device with Celeron 900 MHz and Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (which I think is main problem) but it is small and has a touchscreen.
I intented to use it only as a music player but just displaying user interface eats 50-60% of CPU. I tried different skins with no luck. Some operations can even hangs it for a minute.
I've set screen timeout and when it's off CPU usage is less than 10%, so I'm sure it's graphics problem.
I know requirements
And if it can't be done can you recommend some alternative?
It can be even some console music player but all I've tested need full keyborad.
R2H has built-in arrow keys, enter, pgup, pgdown and two more weird keys which I'm not sure, touchscreen with stylus and trackpoint with left and right mouse buttons.

Quote:Intel GMA 950 (945G) or newer supported, Intel GMA X4500HD (G45) or newer recommended.but maybe there is some way to tweak the GUI so it won't need so much processing power?
