7.09.009 Intel NUC-Kit D34010WYK - Possible Memory Leak

  • Hi all,

    I installed version 7.09.009 on my Intel NUC-Kit D34010WYK today.
    Until then I used 7.0.2, which works perfectly, so this is the first time I run Version 7.09.X on my NUC.

    While playing some random (h.264)-Videos or playing some TV channels (TVHeadend HTSP Client) the memory utilization increases on and on till Kodi freezea or crashes.
    It happens much faster, when I skip the video several times for- or backward.

    I installed 7.09.009 on my RPi3. There is no problem.
    So maybe it´s a problem with die Intel Video Driver.

    Cheers!
    Tom

  • Update:
    Today I installed 7.09.009 on my Intel i7 based Notebook (without any additional addons)!
    Same problem here.
    On both machines VAAPI hardware acceleration was activated.
    I deactivate it and give it a try. Result : No memory increase anymore.
    So it seems to be a general problem with VAAPI acceleration.
    Can anyone confirm?

  • Hey!

    I did some testing again with LE 7.90.010 with same result.
    Hardware: Intel NUC-Kit D34010WYK

    How to reproduce:

    1. Create bootbale USB Stick with Libreelec USB Creator Tool and LE 7.90.010 Generic
    2. Boot in "live" mode
    3. Leave default configuration. Only activate Debug-Logging
    4. Add a samba share
    5. Start a movie from Samba share
    Format: Video: h264/720p Audio: DTS 5.1
    6. Pause the movie
    Screenshot 1: 10% Memory usage initial

    7. Skip the movie several times 10 minutes for- and backward (>50 times)
    Result: 46% memory usage

    8. When reaching the memory limit kodi will crash

    I know this is not a problem you will ever have in workaday life, but I use HTSP Client und everytime I switch between channels something similar happens.


    Cheers!
