Kind of tight on ram (running a home server with the htpc), and having 384mb dedicated to video decoding seems like a lot, I won't play any games (at least until I get some ram)
512MB at least for H264 Level5.1@high. Don't forget xbmc is OpenGL and the renderer uses shaders and, and, and ...
I launched xbmc with:
Code:
GALLIUM_HUD=requested-VRAM xbmc
And it showed ~180MB requested vram playing some 60 fps 1080p clips. Is that the real vram usage?
