Yes, it is likely the resolution. The hardware is designed for up to BluRay standards (1920x1080), and while your video has fewer pixels, it does exceed the height.Note, we can play portrait iPhone videos but they are encoded as 1920x1080 with a rotate flag in the header.
Your video is actually encoded as 720x1280 without a rotation flag.I'll have a closer look at the file and see if anything can be done.
OK, thanks.
As I have only 8 of these files, it's no big deal to convert them.
Dropbox or google drive are good for me.
Here is one.

I think it must have something to do with the resolution.
These files have resolution of 780x1280 and apparently neither my TV or computer display that is connected to the second RPI can cope with that.
I have converted one video to 1920x1080 and that plays without a problem...
These files are all about 30Mb. Where shall I upload one?
Hm,
I received a mail that DaVu had replied to my topic but I cannot see his reply.
The mail had just the beginning of his post asking if I had installed the VC1 license as well. I can confirm that the VC1 license is also installed.
I have another RPI3 which has the same behaviour...
Hi,
I'm running LibreELEC Version 7.0.2 on a RPI3.
Up until now I had no problems playing all sorts of videos but now I have a number of .mp4 videos that do not play (the sound is OK however). The screen displays part of the image (with washed out colours) with the rest noise. These files can all be played using VLC or SMPlayer on Fedora.
Mpeg license key is installed.

Thanks for your help.
Hi,
I did a fresh install of 7.0.2 on an RPi3.
Wanted to add Emby for Kodi and following the instructions on Emby for Kodi
The first step in this procedure is to add a source. However, when I try to do that, nothing happens when I click on "Add source".
Any tips?
Thx.
Edit 1:I don't know if this is normal, but when I go to File Manager, there are actually 2 panes marked "A root" and "B root".
Edit 2: Forget all of the above: it appears that one has to double click on "Add source"...
