About 25Mbps average, with peaks up to .. 30 or so. I haven't said that it's "easy" material to play, but other players do it fine even in CPU-only mode (with 85-90% CPU time on my computer, but it works).What are the bitrates of the samples?
Yeah, sorry, big difference technically, just not way too much difference to most of end users Thanks for correcting meVLC isn't single-threaded.
But most codecs are within VLC.
Nope. Before VLC, all cores are essential idle. Start VLC, and they all get busy. The load is not perfectly distributed, but no core is over 50%, even at peak.I've just read the fist post in that thread where I pointed to - but it says there that VLC is single-threaded, meaning that it's using just 1 core on your quad CPU. That's why you've got ~35% CPU load (25% is one core, rest are probably other unrelated processes).
No filters were enabled, and obviously, no software-deinterlacing for 60p video. Non-DXVA mode is a complete fail... it's just as bad as the older versions of VLC, which didn't even come close to working. Even in the non-accelerated case, though, VLC couldn't keep the CPUs fully fed... it typically jumped around between 60% and 80% CPU, jerky as hell. This indicates a fundamental flaw in VLC that's not directly related to the CPU/GPU processing. I've seen a few players that fail on slower machines (a well designed player can actually play 1080/60p on the Q9550 machine, though it's taking most of the CPU to do so), but they're always failing due to CPU resources... CPUs pegged at 100% or damn near, and they player can't keep up.And, ummm.. maybe try doing it in non-DXVA mode (CPU only)
THis isn't normal. Share the logs.Just wanted to say that it seems to be getting worse with v1.1.2 .. Both in software mode and GPU mode (with newest Catalyst on HD4890 card). Too bad, I was looking forward to those updates
Yeah, about the logs... I had no success getting the *.log file to fill earlier with 1.1.0 .. but I'll try again tomorrow. I just won't have time today.THis isn't normal.

Sorry.. I'm obviously stupid. I turn on VLC. Go to preferences, to advanced, and to logging.. I set up a txt file on desktop, and pick it for logging. Preference is saved as it's there if I turn on/off aplication several times. Tried running as admin. Just can't get the damn log file to appear. I tried creating file manually, tried without file expecting that app will create it. I'm out of ideas.Yeah, about the logs...
