Ok I just did a fresh install and followed this how-to: http://forum.xbian.org/thread-370.html
But unfortunately the result is the same Sad

It seems to me that maybe it has something to do with the scrolling of some menu items such a "Afbeeldingen"
Is it possible to disable this feature?
Some additional info:

I did a fresh Alpha 5 install:
Result is the same. High CPU when menu is idle (using htop via ssh). BUT only when using dutch language!!!.
When using English: No problem.

I noticed that "Albeeldingen" and "Programma's" menu items are scrolling. This is/was not the case in Alpha 4. Both menu items didn't scoll in Dutch. CPU load in Alpha 4 was no problem.

Does anybody know how to disable this scrolling? Maybe font size is changed for the menu items?

Thanks

@Killerbee yes the font is a little bit bigger, I saw that they changed this again in XBMC 13, here is a guide on how to install XBMC 13 on XBian : https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbmc-nightly/blob/master/README.md

Thanks Koen I just did the upgrade but now my TV remote (cec) doesn't work anymore.

I checked the cec simlinks...

and I do not see any issues.

Do you have a suggestion?
Seems that XBMC 13 breaks CEC somehow, can you try https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbmc-nightly/blob/Frodo/README.md

Thanks Koen but unfortunately it didn't help.
My remote still doesn't work. I went back to Alpha 5 but even with Alpha 5 my TV remote doesn't work anymore.

Do I need to copy an old libcec file?

You are probably out of luck with your TV. Libcec is having issues with the newer raspberry pi firmwares. You can find more information on the libcec git. We will immidiatly update libcec once they fix this issue.

Ok I will go back to Alpha 5: English and wait for a fix.

By the way this nightly https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbmc-nightly/blob/Frodo/README.md still has scrolling menu items in Dutch. I forgot to check this one https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbmc-nightly/blob/Frodo/README.md

Do you know if the font size of the menu is hardcoded in the source?
Can you try the following commands:
Code:
sudo su
cd /usr/local/share/xbmc/addons/skin.confluence/720p/
rm Font.xml
wget https://raw.github.com/xbmc/xbmc/db489783e8a5f26193eab9a0d46dcea563fa20e4/addons/skin.confluence/720p/Font.xml
sudo service xbmc restart

Update: Opened an issue https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/issues/297
Scrolling is gone and CPU load is between 40% and 50% again
Thanks
Hi, are the commands (with some minor adaptation) in the FP still okay for testing beta 1 from alpha 5 ?

I want to test some improvements seen on the github.

Thx
No, but can you tell us what improvements you would like to install?
I saw the new firmware with audio popping fix and also post frodo xbmc builds with a dts fix that allow lowering core freq.
We are currently testing both packages and when they are proven to work well enough we will release them through our apt. So please have patience.
Ok, thx for answering.
