Iâve tested it on several S922X box devices that I have, and also the
original S922X version of the VIM3 - all have similar sized passive
heatsinks about 20% the size of the N2 one. No obvious issues with
Kodi software decoding to increase CPU usage. NB: The original patch
submission was N2 specific and then reworked to apply to all S922X
devices at Neilâs suggestion (after my TB and earlier comments).
