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.
