Ahh right the audio, forgot about that.
The CPU is only going to 4 cores 100% when playback starts, and stops when playback stops, so that did not seem related to some background task.
htop output attached. I was assuming that the -analyzeduration 200M was related to some analysis of the current media playback.
Just tested with another video, Direct Streaming H264, EAC3>AAC :
* HD 530 is fully idle , due to direct stream I suppose. It gets active if I reduce quality bitrate to 6 Mbps, to force video transcoding. Makes sense.
* 1 CPU core gets to 100% for about 1 minute. Then all cores go back to idling while playback continues, not sure why. But all this is CPU usage is audio encoding, like you said, I suppose.
I can upload full logs if you would like to see them. They just seemed huge, with mostly old errors which were fixed.
Otherwise, I'll just mark as solved !
