Very high CPU and memory consumption with Qobuz
Hey now,
I am trying to tame my musical purchase habits by trying Qobuz. So far so good and I am enjoying the quality of the 192/24 & 96/24 streams. My questions have to do with the CPU rate, which is at 26% and memory at 357 mb. Looking on the task manger the power consumption is very high too. The fan on my hp laptop, with a Intel Core i7 vPro chip, is running continually since I started running the PC desktop version. I am running Windows 10.
Is this just normal? Is there a way to limit the power consumption with out sacrificing quality On another thread someone mention a free program called " Microsoft 10 Shut Up" that might help.
Also for my Yamaha DAC I am running Foobar2000, which I love. Is there a way to import playlist into Foobar? I Google it and an app called Musconv.com came up in the search, which " claims" to be able to do this for many streaming services. Would that improve performance of Qobuz?
Any insights into my above mentioned question or other tips to increase performance would be greatly appreciated.
