Cant play 4K MKV files without crashing

Thanks for the link, that helped a lot and now I can see the changes.

Ill keep testing. I only use it as a 4K player so there is very little setting up I have to do when I install a new build. If I find anything ill let you know.

Thanks again for all your support.

BTW: no need for a fresh install, you can just update your current installation (copy the tar or img.gz file to the Update share or /storage/.update/ folder and reboot).

so long,

there is fixes in RPi 4B, USB attached HDD fails with the message "xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: WARN Cannot submit Set TR Deq Ptr" in dmesg · Issue #3981 · raspberrypi/linux · GitHub , can someone check if this is going to fix it as well for this issue ?

the xhci warning and OOM killer kicking in are two different issues - the logs in this thread don't contain any xhci warnings.

The common factor between those two issues is (disk) I/O - if you are doing lots of I/O and have a problematic drive you may run into both issues (but it looks like smartd or udisks doing periodic smart checks seems to be an important point in the xhci issue, so LE should probably be OK as it doesn't run those).

Hi Hias,

Are there any known problems with playing a VC1 Blu-ray 1080p file? I tried one yesterday and it was very jumpy. It didn't crash but the film was jumping and losing sync and then catching up on the slower scenes.

Thanks
