Playback of 1080p larger files Stuttering / Jerky Anyone else seeing this issue?

Qualityofpicture · December 16, 2016 at 3:43 PM

Hi guys First off 720p plays flawless. 1080p files are Stuttering jerky. Larger files above 10 gigs buffer symbol comes up a lot.

I have tried this directly off a USB flash drive and my Samba network connection, no change in playback
Also My desktop pc plays the files fine and my popcorn hour a210 plays them fine.

I am using Odroid C2, with 32gig emmc connecting with gig lan connection.
I am using LibreElec (Kripton) v7.90.009 Alpha Love this release!
My files are stored on File server using Samba , also tried on Usb flash drive
Logfile is YEDX (For some reason I can not assess this Address at work it is blocked)

See Screen shot of mem usage and Cpu Usage, This 10 gig file Runs almost all Cpu's up to 100% & Kodi Cpu up to 379.23 % Something dosent seem rite.

I am not thinking it is a network issue because i can plug a usb drive directly into the C2 and it still is jerky. Plus I can plug the Popcorn hour into the same lan cable and it will play the file fine. And the Popcorn hour is only a 100mbs connection.

Second screen shot is the media info of the file.

I did also want to add that i tried HW acceleration is enabled & disabled, Disabled made it mush worse?

Any Help appreciated. Thank you!

No HW support for H.264 High 10 video and CPU too slow.

Ok, So if the ODroid C2 is two slow for h264 (High 10) Can anyone recommend A device that will easily play this format back as well as H265

10-bit H.264 is rarely supported for HW decode so you need something like an Intel NUC with an i7 chip which should have enough grunt to CPU decode everything.

I think i have the same problem with my Wetek Play, never had stuttering on Jarvis. My files are played from hdd.

Running: LibreElec v7.90.010 Alpha
