Win NextPVR high CPU usage
#1
Hi, folks,

I successfully installed NextPVR application, then configured it in Kodi 14.2.

When I use Windows Media Center to watch channel x OTA, CPU usage by WMC is 25-30%. Same if I play the same channel inside NextPVR. But when I play the same channel through Kodi14.2>TV, XBMC uses 68-72% of CPU, making my CPU total load almost 100%.

Any ideas how to optimize this? I am using default decoding settings in the NexyPVR application.

Thank you,
Span

These aren't used in Kodi. They're only used when you're watching in NextPVR. Kodi has it's own decoders etc.

Sorry, not really sure what to suggest on Kodi CPU usage being high.

well, I had found a very similar thread, but the answer was upgrading to the latest addon. That solution doesn't apply to me.

Ensure you have h/w deinterlacing enabled by default.

Turn on expert mode for setup or you can set it as default during video playback.

Change threaded optimization to off in the nvidia 3d settings. This sorted out mine.
