High CPU and GPU usage in kodi when streaming a video

Hi,

When using Emby in kodi, I get 30-50% CPU usage and 40-50% GPU usage. However, if I play the video using MPC-HC, I only get 10-15% cpu usage and GPU usage. Is this normal or is Kodi always this inefficient?

 

I have an i5 8400 paired with GTX 1080. Also, my emby server is running at 127.0.0.1.

As TeamB said, we are guessing here since you didn't provide your kodi log, but if it's transcoding then it is normal depending on your settings.  But if you can avoid to transcode then the cpu usage should be negligible.

 

Is this all running on your home network?
