Hi!
Recently I installed the new Ubuntu 16.04 (server, LXDE+Openebox) but I tested some videos with same problem: after an hour of play, Kodi increases CPU usage 7-8% per core to more than 35-40% per core (with or without playing video), playing the same file. If I restart Kodi (kill and open again) the CPU usage returns to normality.
It's very curious, because the problem is progressive and starts exactly at hour (+-15 min), the CPU goes from 7-8% per core to 15, then 20, then 25, then 30...finally I see the total CPU usage from 30% to 130 :S
I tested it with FRESH install, no additional packages or programs, only Kodi 16.1 and openbox.
30-35 minutes playing:
after 1 hour:
* You can see in the first pic "House 1x01...35 minutes", in the second pic Kodi played the first epiisode (42 minutes) and 22 minutes of the second, 64 minutes in total.
I checked temps and are Ok (50-55º celsius) no underlock in cpu, etc.I know that in the screens I had eminence with some addons, but I tested also only pure kodi purged (16.1 and 17) and same problem again.
I have 3-4 debug log, nothing interesting: http://pastebin.com/2gmtGKWi
The same test in Openelec (Kodi 16.1 RC2) works nicely, over 2-3 hours playing 1080p with normal CPU usage and when I return to main menu, the CPU usage is normal...so I don't know what I can do.
PS: I also tested with Kodi 17 alpha2 and same instructions that told fritsch in the first page with same result: after 1 hour the CPU usage increases A LOT. Full debug log with 17 alpha: http://pastebin.com/kTgbrxcq
PS2: I'm playing with NUC5PPYH (I tested Asrock N3000 and FN2820FYKH with same results) over NFS (Synology).
Thanks and regards.
