Hello guys! I'm using a MXQ Pro 4K box, recently installed Kodi 17.1 and with any build the CPU is always to max 100% ,all the time...movies run choppy all the time. With SPMC everything runs smoothly and the CPU usage is much lower. Any help for the problem? Thanks!
Use SPMC then?

Sounds like your box is using firmware that is not so good, and workarounds and bodges for those were removed in Krypton.
It has Android 6.0.1 build p212-userdebug 6.0.1 MHC19J 20161024.102920 test-keys . Is it a good firmware ? Can you tell me which is the right one to use? Thanks!
The firmware tends to be to work around stuff with the hardware, so not really something we can advise on.
