v2 high cpu consume then v1 ,under xp

[VLC_help]

Open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2), then start the playback. VLC will say what decoders are used to decode audio and video.

Playing the same videos (avi, mkv mpg ...), the same sopcast channel... and there are a big difference between 1.11.111 and 2.0 about cpu consume, if is only a number no problem, but the video go very slow.. whit a high cpu consume. No codec problems, no audio problems, the problem is with the new version. I have installed again the 1.11 version waiting the bugs can be fixed.
I dont say this to claim nothing, only to help to make a better next version without thouses problems. I only want to help to videolan people.

cheers!

did you test 2.0.1 ?
cheers

Yes, I just testing the 2.0.1 version and the problem still there, a little better, with online sopcast video but for example a mkv 1080 its impossible to see
For example, a simple 720p mkv with vlc 1.11.111:20%-30% cpu, with 2.0.1:88%-94%.
Its impossible to fix it?, I think that there are something diferent between that 2 versions about cpu used, something that has changed on the new version.

Right now... again return to 1.11.111

Whats going on about higher cpu consume? Was a big problem with 2.0 and still that problem with 2.0.1. Many people advice the same problem but there not solution. After 2.0 some one on this website tell us "will be fixed on the 2.0.1", but wasnt, its a joke? I think that 60% more of cpu consume its too much to dont try to fix it.

I hope can be resolve it, by now... I still using 1.1.11

[m0Zf2B7kdD76pWi3Zon4]

I have not been able to get any versions above 1.1.11 to play properly. The video will stop and the sound keeps going, things of that nature. It just seems that with all the newer versions my computer no longer has enough power to do the video processing. This has only happened only on my ASUS EeePC CPU Intel Atom 1.6 GHz 1 Gig RAM. I am guessing it is a resource problem from the other posts I have seen. I have loaded all the other versions between 1.1.11 and 2.01, removing everything in between loadings, and still 1.1.11 is the only only one that works.

It is not a problem for me I just use 1.1.11 but from the posts here my shower machine may have started to show the resource related problem in an earlier version.

m0Zf2B7kdD76pWi3Zon4: does it help on ATOM machine, if you set FFmpeg threads to 1?

It didn't help on my core 2 duo machine. Should this problem now be moved into official Trac bug reporting?

[VLC_help]

If you have a way to replicate the issue, the yes.

did you try the last version ?
seems to be better , doesn't it

On my system, starting Firefox 3.64 or IE7 with the latest Adobe Flash plugin (11.xx) results in permanently wonky video, even after exiting the browsers.. screen pauses when right-clicking the mouse etc, and VLC loses hardware acceleration (MPC and WMP don't). Also as mentioned in another thread USB mouse movements in 2.x add 20-30% CPU compared to a few % in 1.x.

i have the same issue due this old thread raised a new one.
