High ffmpeg CPU usage
Hello,
I have a question regarding High ffmpeg CPU usage.
My Configuration: mobdro kodi
Intel i7 920 2.67Ghz - 16GB RAM
Windows 7 64-bit OS SP1
Serviio 1.4.1.2
ffmpeg (ffmpeg-20140919-git-33c752b-win64)
Movies MKV (H264) format
I have Sony SMP-N100 - which requires Transcoding (ffmpeg) when streaming
I am testing out ROKU 3 (4200x) - which supports DLNA MKV (H264)
I have noted that when streaming to the ROKU using Serviio:
1) High ffmpeg CPU usage (98+%) regardless of whether I enable / disable "Transcoding". I did not expect any need for "Transcoding".
2) I had read up in the forum about the high ffmpeg CPU usage and followed the suggestion to download the latest ffmpeg (64-bit) but problem not resolved: still high CPU usage
3) Continued High ffmpeg CPU usage even when I stop Streaming the Video. Only way is to End the ffmpeg process (Ending Serviio process does not kill the ffmpeg process)
I streamed to the ROKU using a different DLNA server:
1) Minimal CPU usage (less than 10% peak) and the DLNA server does not report any Transcoding going on.
I MUCH Prefer using Serviio.
Am I configuring something wrong?
