I run my media center 24/7/365 with GBPVR. I use the program for watching movies/playing music/game emulators and do not record anything. The system is a dual core Intel 2.6Mhz with 2GB of RAM.
I noticed that after awhile the GUI starts becoming sluggish (scrolling thru the options taking longer, etc). When I check Task Manager I see PVRX2.EXE memory usage >300MB. The other day it was around 800MB!
So a couple of days ago I restarted the exe and watched it in Task Manager. It started at around 70MB but within a couple of minutes it was almost at 100MB with doing nothing in the program. It stabilized at 100MB, but this morning it was up to 345MB. Since a couple of days ago I have only watched a downloaded TV show, rest of the time it's been idle running the GBPVR screensaver.
Is this normal?
Here are the plugins I have installed/use/active:
TV Guide
Search Guide
Video Library
Music Library
Picture Library
GameZone
MovieWiz
Weather
RSS Feeds
WebCams
NetRadio
Skin
System
Exit
Could one these plug-ins be causing the high memory usage?
Also, since I do not record anything, can I eliminate the GBPVRRecordingService.exe task from running?
I attached the logs if needed. Thanks!
