High CPU/stuttering on high bitrate X.264 MKV

[mk01]

@micymuse,

played on my RPI (920,420,500) with SW decoding, don't have AVR at hand currently to test passthrough.

tested from xbmc's nfs source directly (this would be nfs3) and from locally mounted same export as with nfs4 (rsize=128k,wsize=32k). xbmc is pre buffering quite long and shutter 2x in the first 5s, local mount will shutter 1x in the first 5s.

you have to find out if this is not still the resemblance of ES/DTS issues with fw and passthrough and whatsoever.

what you can check yourself is to update to the latest versions of kernel&fw&xbmc available what is (not considering gotham) :

Code:

xbian-package-firmware    1.4.10
xbian-package-kernel    1.3-6.3
xbian-package-xbmc    2.9-10.17

but this won't make much difference I think.
