To high CPU usage

[stook]

Hello...
With Xvid RC2 decoder with no options on (like deblocking), when I play Xvid Beta3 movies I've got about 50% of cpu usage but when I play any Xvid RC(1 or 2) movie the cpu usage jumps to 90%. It's a strange behavior because all movies were encoded by me with similar options!I play the movies in Zoomplayer 3.31...

Computer specs:
ASRock P4VT8
256Mb RAM DDR400MHz
P4 1.9GHz
GF4MX440

It often causes problems however, so default colourspace in RC builds in YUY2, which is a bit slower.

Go to decoder's options and force colourspace to YV12.

I hope that helps,

Thanks for your reply.
I tested your suggestion and cpu lowered a bit but only about 5%.
Is there any possibility of decoder is much more cpu expensive?!? I have a P3 600MHz too. Is there any possibility that with future/optimized decoders it plays a film again like it happened in the past?!?
