I have a Core2Quad Q6600 and I get frame drops like crazy when playing Hi10p on XBMC.
The thing is, I downclocked it to 1.6ghz from 2.4ghz, so I can run it silent.
I get frame drops at 2.4ghz and it is downright unplayable at 1.6ghz.
MPC-HC, however, plays 10bit 1080p without dropping a single frame at 1.6ghz.
I also noticed that my CPU usage never hits 100% either.
Of course, my overpowered Core i5 laptop, and Core i7 desktop PC plays it just fine in XBMC.
But still, the Q6600 should be powerful enough to play 2 Hi10p clips at the same time without skipping a beat if I used MPC-HC.
From reading the past 10 pages or so, I'm guessing it is because XBMC disables multithreading?
Does anyone have a multithreaded patched prebuilt version of the final XBMC Frodo v12 uploaded somewhere?

Hi10p takes lots of CPU, you don't have it...

I tried a build from for windows from this thread, but I still had framedrops with those exact same files that have no framedrops in MPC-HC in combination with the lav filters. Multiple people, even devs state that you need a lot of oomph in your PC, but I don't get it. Why can MPC-HC play my 10bit files without issues?
Sorry man, but I'm still skeptical of this claim. *shrug*

It's a build from master branch of the 21/01. It's not exactly xbmc12, and i don't know from which day xbmc 12 is, but if not 100% v12, it's probably more than 99.99%.

You need big iron for h10p, those that encode this way really did a disservice to all. They should be lined up and ponked with trout.

@ jpsdr : I understand what you're saying, I did wonder why the (gem) patch didn't get the feature presentation.
I'm not in the coding business so I don't question it, I just appreciate XBMC dev's and everyone involved hard work and hope for it to succeed.
Anime encoders really push hardware/software optimization ahead of its time and completely disregard industry standards but isn't the next big thing on everyone's mind?
I'm gonna get some friends in Japan just to have an excuse to go there and watch broadcast tv in glorious 4k in 2014!
