Netflix hangs while mining?

I have the Kryptex app active for mining.

With Dagger Hashimoto ETH. This is currently very profitable. 80 euro monthly at 110W.

This problem only exists with Dagger Hashimoto ETH.

When I watch Netflix, the video and the sound stuck after a while. You can only get out of the full screen with F11. If you then take cryptex into the picture, then it does not react at all. Only after a few seconds can you see that the algorithms have stuck and are restarting. Then the problem repeats itself.

For example, this doesn't happen on YouTube.

When it matters:

GTX 1060 6gb

Intel Core I5 9600K

16GB RAM

Why is this happening and how can it be prevented?

That could be good. Streaming consumes a lot of data and energy - so does mining, so both are bad for the planet.

but I don't want to judge you here, that's why: It could be that there's an overload.

What do you expect? All your performance is used for mining. In the meantime, it is difficult to gamble or watch something.

With YouTube, this works smoothly in 4k.

At Netflix, I'm only watching Naruto at the moment, that's in 480 or 360p.

You probably don't even have a 4k monitor, so that's no comparison. 1080p is the easiest of the components anyway, which is why this is just as bad a comparison. Netflix is just Netflix, that's how it is sometimes. But if the program crashes or something then it's because of the mining.

Turn on cinebench and set your CPU priority to realtime. Everything hangs during the test. Until the test is over. Why? All performance goes into the test. There's nothing left for screen refresh. Same principle. That is why a mining system is only used for this and everything else on a different system!

Since I suppose you don't really know how it all works, I'll skip the details. Netflix needs network capacity to load the stream and graphics capacity to decode the stream. The miner needs network capacity to load transactions and send blocks, and graphics capacity to calculate the checksums. And that is not compatible.

Er

This happens when the resources of the graphics card required for decoding are full. Depending on the codec and load, some codecs work better, others worse. The fact is: don't expect the GPU to do a lot more besides mining bells and whistles.

Ok now I get it.
