Hi All,

I just managed to install 1.0.1 and was surprised that my PC was making a lot of noise after a while. I recognized that MP is causing a lot of CPU usage when no media are playing. What I did is start MP, start TV, stop TV and then wait. In the screenshot you can see perfectly that CPU usage went down significantly after MP was closed.

Best regards,
Sepp.
