streaming: using only one CPU in quad core

Hi to all...
I have intel quad core, windows 7 64 bit, and I am trying to stream something from dvb-t using webm codec (VP80).
And everything is working, except only one cpu is used (out of 4) for streaming...So VLC is using all the time 25% (in task manager) but I know it needs more, so video is chunky and frames are dropped.
How to increase number of cores used here? I tried putting high priority, run it as administrator, but it is allways on 25%
thank you

this seems to be codec issue...
when I switched from VP80 to h264, everything works ok...
p.s. I am using version 1.1.6

I tried new 1.1.7 and nightly 1.2.0 and still there is a problem with my cpu goes only to 25% on quad core thus using only one cpu...
