i got an barebone shuttle P4 2,8 MHZ/ Matrox G550/ 120GB Maxtor 7200 rpm

after i read this topic i, looked at my task-manager and recognized that my prozessor also runs at about 50% while res 2.0 is running
when i put a few plugins on the clpis and one in each layer, the clips got slowerand jumped a little. my clips are in 320x240.
i lokked again at the task-manager and the prozessor still used 50%. why is it nut using more, whats wrong???

Support Hyper-Threading from Intel ?

Hi DEVELOPERS !!!!

Resolume - is the BEST of the BEST for real VJ`s !!!
Thank YOU For Your HARD WORKING !!!

Are Resolume Support Hyper-Threading Technology from Intel ?

When i use Resolume - I see in "Task Manager" only 50% use my processor, But Not All play quickly!

May Be Developers can made 2 variants of distributive for Hyper-Threading Intel users and Other ?

May be Resolume can Learn use memory on videocards ???

May be This features users can use thru options in future versions ???

i found the problem of my 50% used prozessor. in the bios there was hyper threading activated, so win xp shared my single prozessor into two and used only 50% of the power. just disable this function in the bios and everything will run fine

thanx tim

more performance without HT or not?

Same het P4 3,4 Ghz. HT slows Resolume down. Performance is like running Resolume on a 1,6 Gz. P4 (my older system).

Just went into bios and turned hyper-threading OFF, and now have 100% CPU throttle !

Don't know if it's my imagination or not BUT 3 global effects on 3 LAYERS (cinepack 320x240) seems to be running much better !

However this might bring another problem ..... i.e HEAT !

I'm running a shuttle and am worried of 8 hours 100% CPU usage. Hope i don't have CRASHES now !

Will TEST at tonights gig, and get back to you all :)

Edwin/Bart if you guys have any other ideas on this hyper-threading issue.. SHARE BABY .. SHARE ! :P

update:

without 'HYPER-THREADING' my USB Sony-trv22 'LIVE' feed was working at half frames and jerky. (toooo slow !) no idea why. :mad: seems like this was the only problem, but for me a large one !

Reverted back to 'HYPER-THREADING' and it was fine. :)

I'll be watching this thread with a lot of interest !
