Above Normal eats CPU

[Tizio]

Can't reproduce this... Or your video file has a frame rate too high for your CPU, or you are using a bad coded codec..
Can you post here the file type you are playing and the filters used by BSplayer to decode it (with the video playing -> right-click on bsplayer -> Options -> Filters -> Advanced)

Maybe you have a CPU hit when you rise BSplayer's priority because the frame rate of the video is high and usually there are a lot of frames dropped, then when you rise the process priority BSplayer has more CPU cycles to dedicate to the playback and there will be less frames dropped but an higher CPU usage (it doesn't really make sense to me, since there should not be frame dropped if there's still some CPU power to be spent, but who knows..... :roll: )
