  • Increased CPU Temps

  • Increased CPU Temps

    I know this has been mentioned a few times, but I have to say with my RPI3's which I upgraded to the latest 9.x.x streams, when playing 1080p and even sometimes 720p video streams, getting the little temperature alert icon flashing in the right of the screen......

    CPU got upto 80c last night while trying to render a video.

    Never had the issue when on the 8 stream..... Any tips of getting around this? on the RPI3's and also the RPI4 (4gb) which I am about to upgrade too?

    or will I now have to start looking for heat syncs, and airflow for the RPI's now too? I'd prefer not to if I can help it :)

So anyone using DynDNS services, or none at all, appear to luck out..... Oh well that saves me time trying to get youtube running....

    Howdy Guys,

    What would you guys suggest? its hard to get the old Windows MCE remotes these days and I noticed that you cannot pair the older Harmony remotes with Kodi?

    Just looking for some suggestions if you have em......

    Docker containers can encapsulate any payload, and will run consistently on and between virtually any server. The same container that a developer builds and tests on a laptop will run at scale, in production*, on VMs, bare-metal servers, OpenStack clusters, public instances, or combinations of the above.
