I knew there were problems with some audio ouput, but I had read about the possibility of passthrough - in my case it will be ok. I suppose the CPU "choking" is only present when trying to let the RPi transcode the audio, right?
I have a 2012 Panasonic Plasma TV and the integrated media player is so-so: i.e. it doesn't support external srt subtitles when playing mp4 or mkv files, so I have to remux them in mkv with subs in order to play them, and I was thinking about getting a RPi (and also changing my Seagate Dockstar tranmission/minidlna system with 2 or more disks NAS)
- Uberphallus 13y agoIn that case I think RPi can fit your needs, though the GUI will feel slow anyway.
- fian 13y agoWere you using a Class 10 SD card? The preinstalled SD cards you could buy with Raspbian from places like element14 are really slow. Swap in a class 10 and XMBC becomes much more responsive.
- Uberphallus 13y agoClass 10, but it's not the issue, as XFCE + XBMC isn't even close to swapping in the 512MB model. It's more matter of CPU hogging on XBMC code (you can see it using ~20% idling).
