I have a Core2Quad Q6600 and I get frame drops like crazy when playing Hi10p on XBMC.
The thing is, I downclocked it to 1.6ghz from 2.4ghz, so I can run it silent.
I get frame drops at 2.4ghz and it is downright unplayable at 1.6ghz.
MPC-HC, however, plays 10bit 1080p without dropping a single frame at 1.6ghz.
I also noticed that my CPU usage never hits 100% either.
Of course, my overpowered Core i5 laptop, and Core i7 desktop PC plays it just fine in XBMC.
But still, the Q6600 should be powerful enough to play 2 Hi10p clips at the same time without skipping a beat if I used MPC-HC.
From reading the past 10 pages or so, I'm guessing it is because XBMC disables multithreading?
Does anyone have a multithreaded patched prebuilt version of the final XBMC Frodo v12 uploaded somewhere?
