Given that the Tegra X1 exposes all 8 cores to the userspace (according to anandtech) wouldn't Kodi be able to use all 8 cores? Is this being limited by android or would it be something complex to handle? Since the A53 cores are less powerful than the A57 ones it could be harder to distribute tasks between them I'm guessing... Anyway this is just curiosity Smile

Wild guess: Kodi only shows 4 CPU's max Wink
We don't do anything regarding cpu usage. That's controlled by the kernel.


That makes sense. Thanks,
