I have the latest SAF Beta 22Test4 codec pack running on it and added a GeForce 6200 video card. Only option on this Dell Mother board was PCI slot unfortunatley. Computer has a small 80gig HD so I figured I would upload all smaller encoded movies with .mkv extensions, Which are usually H264. I am getting a CPU strain in the higher 60% to 80% range on most. Funny thing is the .Avi's I have the CPU usage goes right down to 15 or 16% which is great. Watching Aliens tonight this attached pic is at 55% but it was going up as high as 72% and more at times. Any options? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin&nbsp; &nbsp; :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
