Hi everyone! Just setup my new htpc using a Zbox-ND22 (Celeron SU2300 1.2Ghz + Nvidia ION + 4GB RAM) but I noticed a very high CPU usage inside the program even while IDLE. Playing a 1080p movie using VLC (with GPU decoding enabled) uses pretty much no CPU at all so my drivers are correctly installed (at least for video decoding).
My problem is: Do I need any special setup / config to enable video aceleration into XBMC for the ION videocard? I mean, not for video playing (since enabling DXVA works just fine) but for rendering the XBMC itself. The XBMC installation is pretty much clean (only installed the Aeon skin) but the CPU usage is high even with the Confluence default skin :/
So, any ideas?
