I noticed this too on 8.95.2 beta (see rpi2 deinterlace tvheadend issue). The rpi playback of interlaced content is messed up, even MMAL - BOB isn't frame perfect. I'm sticking to to the previous release.

v8.95.3 BETA still has the same problem, it seemed to have improved a bit, but compared to 8.2.5 the playback fps is seriously degraded.

I only whitelisted 1080p50 and 1080p60.

Today I tried v8.95.2 BETA and noticed an deinterlace issue. I am watching live and recorded 1080i (25 fps) footage via the tvheadend plugin and this is stuttering. Whitelisting 1080p50 does not help. Tried all the deinterlacer options, but only disabling fixes the stutter but introduces the interlace artifacts. top showed 53% cpu usage during playback. This is on 3 different TV's

Reverting to 8.2.5 made the tvheadend playback smooth.

Another issue is that when I stop a video playback and main menu appears the control is frozen for a couple of seconds.

I am afraid to say that both issues are showstoppers for me.

Any tips?

Just want to let you know that I'm happy with v6.90.002.
My current setup is 4x rpi-2, one of them has a nfs image dir shared and mysql server, the other rpi's mount the rootfs at boottime (boot=NFS and disk=NFS option in cmdline.txt). A TvHeadend plugin is used to playback recordings from the DVR PC.

Upgrade from openelec 6.0.1 was smooth, everything working ok!
