<div>Hello,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have an older laptop with a bad display that I use for transcoding the videos that the cheap PVR records from an antenna. </div>
<div>The laptop had 18.04 on it and worked fine.</div>
<div>When I upgraded to 20.04, while transcoding, it shutdown on its own, and upon rebooting, the BIOS had a notice saying it shutdown due to overheating. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Doing some searching, it turns out there is a bug in thermald. So I uninstalled thermald, and transcoding completed without issues. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>However, the range where the kernel throttles the CPU is too high for my liking (95C to 105C). </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Is there any way to lower these to other values? </div>
