Thanks for testing this ht2tweak
I have no idea why the tron sample would crash the player. My instinct is that its something wrong with the file / metadata. Has anyone tried playing a remux of that movie the whole way through?
I do not know what "4K 3D FSBS" is - I am not super familiar with how 3D works. I'd have to dig into popcornmix 's code a bit more I basically just threw it at Claude and said "port this and make sure it compiles" because I have no way to actually test playback haha.
If there are some compromises we are able to make without sacrificing picture quality on 3D rendering I'd imagine we should be able to get it to work without dropping frames. My assumption is that its rendering 47fps and alternating frames? If gemini man can play without dropping frames at 60fps we should be able to get that to work.

It's the Tron and Transformers DV FEL samples. These were shared by someone when OSMC devs were working on FEL support for Vero V. Someone mentioned Transformers 1-5 UHD rips not working with CroqueMr's earlier builds, until he fixed the issue. Let me see if I can get a full copy of Transformers and re-test. I personally can't stand most of Michael Bay's brain-numbing movies.
4K 3D SBS is not important at all. Very rare. Not something to worry about in the least.

Same problem w/full UHD rip of 'Transformers (2007)'. Debug log.

RPi5 build is still in early stage. I have my collection of FEL and other complicated DV files. I will test everything and push PR when needed.

Not expecting any PC-level of performance, but RPi5 may be an alternative to those who already have one, or those who find board + necessary components for cheaper than a low-end PC.

Hi dangerouslaser
Just a quick question
Is the latest version still RC1 or is it already RC2?
I had a go at testing it and it showed me RC1.

Auto updated from beta6 to beta7 - nice 🙂
The only thing not working for me is Dolby Vision from full BDMV titles (1:1 UHD BD folders) they play in HDR10 instead.
(They work with DV FEL in CoreELEC on Amlogic)
Tested several titles on two different TV:s
Can supply a log file tomorrow if needed.
Other than that - great work!

With beta7, Tron Legacy sample plays in DV, but with stutter, while Transformers still results in black screen. Saving Private Ryan UHD rip play in DV, but playback stutters. Can provide debug log if helpful.
