If I exit kodi and open chrome it does not seem so bad. I thought it might be Video acceleration issue but I enabled software only and it still plays smoother than in KODI. Is anyone else seeing something similar?
Is this on linux? Afaik chrome just runs on top of Kodi, and since Kodi is not minimized it does uae some cpu cucles when idle. A lot less now than before - since "dirty regions" was incorporated, but there is still some cpu usage. Maybe it's better on windows, and/or with a beefier cpu. I dont really have a big problem with it, even when running 720p with my 1.4ghz celeron chromebox.
Yep I am running Linuxmint 17.1 KDE, I watched KSysGuard and it seems that the CPU cycles are not crazy. I thought it might be something to do with video card priority. I have tried running chrome with video acceleration and without but it makes no difference.
