Try a fresh installation, re-add your add-ons one at a time.

Hi Sam!!

I don´t install any add-on.
I burn the image with osmcinstaler over ubuntu and turn on my raspi 1 with the SD card. And some hours latter the cpu is at 100% (it is not necesary do anything more.)

Now I am burning a new microSD, I will tell you tomorrow…

Thanks

Which screen are you on when you see 100% CPU usage?

Measure it with ‘top’ on the home screen, not the System Info section.

Hi Sam!

I am in the home screen (Video, Music, Program, settings)
I am using ssh connection and top or htop comand to see the cpu usage:

Press 'H and upload a screenshot of threads in htop.

Yesterday I did a new instalation, in order SD card.
This morning I shutdown the raspberry pi 1, and I changed the SD card.
I configuration nothing in fact, My TV is waiting for the welcome configuration of OSMC (machine name, ssh options…)

And my CPU is another time at 100%

Hi!

After same test, I have some idea…

Is it possible turn off the upnp CLIENT of Kodi?

Thanks!!

31

Hi!

I open a thread with this topic in kodi foum:

Thanks

32

Does it do the 100% cpu when not connected to a network?

33

Hi mcobit!

Without network in the raspberry pi the problem doesn’t appear. the cpu use is normal, between 20~30%

I think that the problen is the xupnpd DLNA server… But until now I cann’t prove it.

Thanks

See here for how to turn off the upnp renderer (client):

Hello!!!

After the week-end testing… I can say that I find the problem. Something without sense… but…

I have a Ubuntu Server 14.04.5 LTS (amd64) with the package xupnpd instaled:

If I stop this service, all work properly. however, if this service is running, Kodi, start to make threads, and the kodi procces uses the 100% of CPU and it’s produces forzen image.

After this. I decide to try in another machine, so I stopped XUPNPD in the ubuntu server, and install xupnpd in a raspberry pi that I had lost in a drawer using:

https://github.com/txt3rob/xupnpd-raspberry-armhf

And in a raspberry pi 1, all work properly.

I can´t understand why, the same package, the same version, and the same configuration file, can make different behavior… and make kodi go mad…

in the raspberry pi 1:

I don’t kow if it is a bug of kodi, a bug of xupnpd x86 or… I don’t know.

Thanks for your help.
