4k hdr 10 bit videos

  • Like I was using a nightly the last weekend and when I watched a movie, the movie lagged a lot (like the frames were moving slow all of the sudden after 40 mins ) and to fix that I would restart and again after 40 mins the same process) and the video was 4k hdr 10 bit but I had the same problems before 2 weeks with a nightly with 1080p video non hdr .

    (I forgot to create a thread for the problem and paste the log)

  • If you tested with 4kp60 files then this is expected - the performance of the HEVC is not what it should be, the RPi video codec guru is currently working on improving that.

    Playback over network can also be problematic with high-bitrate files, especially if you are using Kodi's built-in smb client and ts files. Enabling buffermode 1 in advancedsetttings, using an OS-level smb/cifs or NFS mount might help in that case.

    so long,
