Stuttering playback

Post by Premium »

Playing a 720p x264.mp4 file. Small but, irritating stuttering during playback on mrmc. Kodi playing the same file with no stuttering what so ever..

Smb sharing from a synology nas on a wired network. Bug in the mrmc or just to slow hardware on the Apple TV??

Hope the first update is right around the corner.. Regards!

720p x264.mp4, no way that can slow down the mighty A8/arm64 :)

Which Kodi and what platform ? Sample of it that shows the stutter ?

Kodi 15.2 on a mac mini. Synology ds 412+, smb sharing, wired network. The file plays smooth!!

Tried to watch an episode (same file)on the apple tv with mrmc. The picture sometimes glitches/stuttering for a verry short moment. Enough to force me over to my 2009 mac mini running kodi.

How can i provide you with a sample of the issue??

stick it in a dropbox account, email the url, I email back when I have it, you delete it.

if you use some silly filesharing server that tries to infect me, I will not be happy :)

Ok. Looks like the stuttering is better/gone after forcing the apple tv to run 1080p 50Hz, and not 60Hz. Running 60 Hz 1080 on my kodi setup with no issues.. Strange!

I played a MKV with 1080p and 7.1 DTS MA today. Decode to PCM okay, no stutter at all, but my biggest issue is seeking. Fast forward and rewind are awfull. It's between a slide show to unresponsiveness. On e.g. the Shield ATV it's much better.
