Is > this a requirement that vdr uses this much all the time? It is definitly not VDR itself, but rather one of the plugins. My VDR (1.7.15) with several Plugins (skinenigmang,femon,streamdev-server,xine) consumes less than 1% CPU when idle (but tuned to a valid station), and less than 5% when a xine client is connected (HD Channel!) CPU is a Core 2 6600 (2.4 Ghz) -- Falk Spitzberg Tel: +49 5242 901626 E-Mail: post@xxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
