DVBLink Viewer unusable on low powered Intel NUC's?

[Muppets4]

I have two NUCS with a celeron in it, the N2830 and the N3050. Both equiped with 8GB of RAM and an SSD. Both are unable to play the HD channels of my provider. SD works well, but with high CPU load. The sound is there, but the image is stuttering etc.

I thought that maybe the NUC's are not powerfull enough. But when I install Kodi and the DVBLink plugin, it works great! CPU not getting over 40-50%. Also, 12GB MKV files play fine too.

I need the Viewer to work, bacause my wife and kids will not accept Kodi. The simplicity of the Viewer is what attracts me/them.

And while we 're at it, what is the green line I get under the playing channels? I have it on systems with an Intel GPU and on systems using an Nvidia card.

edit: added log on info

One of my TV viewing clients in one of my bedrooms is a very old system, a win10 ZOTAC barebone mini PC from 2009 with a Nvidia ION chipset and a 1.2GHz Celeron ...

DVBLink viewer can't handle my TV HD streams too on that system, but..... when I use Kodi 17 with the DVBLink PVR client addon, TV HD streams are playing flawlessly in KODI.

It looks like DVBLink Viewer doesn't use the GPU the same way that Kodi does, for viewing HD channels

There comes an update for DVBLink Viewer very soon that will bring substantial improvement in video playback performance.

That is good news. I've tried it today on a PC with the i5-5257U (with Iris 6100 GPU) and the result is still not ready to watch (100% CPU). Some better, but choppy video.

Just to ask. Is there a solution for the annoying green line just under the video? It's not only there, it flashes too. Seen it mentioned a couple of times on the forum.

Yes. Change de-interlacing algo to another one - to linear, for example.

Linear did not solve it. Blend did. Thanks!

Somehow I hoped that very soon was.....well..... very soon (:

They are working on it, so just wait.

In the mean time, you can use Kodi as a perfect replacement

I don't recall asking you. As I explained in the first post, my family won't accept Kodi.....

The DVBLink player with required changed already released. The DVBLink Server with in-built dvblink player / also a DVBlink Viewer on the testing line.

Please, the latest dvblink server / player / viewer update.
It should help with h265 stream. But, decoding of h265 is too heavy process, so not need to expect a "miracle" with weak CPU.

Muppets4 is from the Netherlands, so if he is using DVB-C, non of the dutch DVB-C providers are using h265 yet.

So those this new build improve framerate with other codecs ?

Think so But informative? Really? Telling me to use Kodi when I open that I can't use Kodi.

I've just installed the DVBLink Viewer. Something is going really wrong. The guide loads, but TV doesn't seem to work. In the left down corner there isn't presented my IP adress like it was before..... Going to open a new topic.
