Emby CPU usage over 100% with ffmpeg


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

I install Emby on Ubuntu 14.04. And I watch my movie on a RpI2, or by the webbrowser.
 But when I start to play a movie, the ffmpeg process is over 100% of CPU charge.

It's normal?

 

It's possible to change a config file for using more RAM than CPU?

 

Thanks.

Same here.

Ubuntu 14.04

starting a <720p movie works.

But movies with 1080p terrible hangs.

 

And if I start one movie I have several processes. Is that normal?

same here too.

Ubuntu 14.04

ffmpeg is producing up to 8 processes which can´t be stopped even if i stop the movie. If I was starting several movies the processes are stacking and stacking and stacking until the system crashes.

 

I think the reason of no playing movies is the laggy system then.

ok i realized that the movies are starting after waiting 1 Minute 30 seconds. But there are stillt much processes and the cpu-usage is by 100% of both cores

there should only be one process per video. before looking further i would make sure you're on the latest version of the server.
