SageTvTranscoder.exe ??
My system is running usually high CPU recently. I thought it had to do with trying sagemc, and a bloated install. so I ran a ghost image on my machine, copied my property files and wiz files back but I am still running unusually high load. I don't have sagemc installed since reimaging. Now even the menus are slow. The peculiar thing is I noticed that the transcoder is running, I don't know why. I don't have any com skip installed, I don't have any placshifters active.
What would cause transcoder to run? Is anybody else noticing a higher CPU load since 6.2? |

Mike_15,
This sounds like it might be the problem where corrupt video files may be causing the problem. Recovering the boot drive would not fix this type of problem if the problem is really being caused by the corrupt video files stored on a non-boot drive. Here is the string I found about how to fix the high CPU load caused by corrupt video file(s): Quote:

For one thing, the generation of thumbnails.
If you don't care much for thumbnails, then: 1. quit sage 2. open Sage.properties 3. find the line: video_thumbnail_generation=true 4. change that to false. 5. save it, close it, restart sage. |

Removing those or Disabling the thumbnail generation fixed it.

Thanks davephan I believe that you were right about the corrupted video files.
I ended up pulling out the multimeter trying to diagnose why my computer was behaving so erratically. high cpu and system freezes/crashes. The multimeter showed my 12v output was only putting out 10v. I bought a new power supply and my system has been solid, thank goodness since Sunday night football was on. At least for me it seems that the issues were a bad power supply not giving my system enough power, making corrupt video files. then sage was choking on the bad video files and a general lack of power as well.
