Try adding gpu_mem=128 to /flash/config.txt and try again.
That allows enough memory for the high number of reference frames.
That worked!
"gpu_mem" appears to have been set to 76 by default, and bumping it up to 128 absolutely fixes the issue!
Are there any bad ramifications to leaving it set to 128?
Thanks again for all your help!

I also sent you a DM, just in case.
Thanks again for all your help!
No support for pirate add-ons.
If you have a file that fails to play, and can provide a sample (e.g. 1 minute cut) that shows the issue it can be investigated.
Thank you for your response!
Oh, it is not a add-on or anything. It is just a standard .mp4 Video file, played through the normal means in Kodi.
I just used "LossLessCut" now to prune it down to about 30 seconds, (about 7 MB) and it still shows the failure.
(Works on 9.x, but not on 10 or 11)
Should I attach the 30 second file here, or send it somewhere?
(I don't want to violate any rules, etc)
Thanks again for your response and help!

Hi!
I am using LibreELEC on a Raspberry Pi 4.
I have a file, (well a number of files), that plays Audio, but does not play Video.
The file is not 4k, which I know can have some issues on the Raspberry Pi 4.
The issue is ONLY on LibreELEC 10 (and 11).
If I go back to LibreELEC 9.2.8, the file works properly.
When it tries to play, the video seems to "want" to play, the screen slightly flickers continuously, but it remains on the "load/snapshot" screen. The audio plays normally, and continues to play properly, even though the video itself didn't start playing.
The file(s) themselves are from "other places", and so I have been hesitant to submit a bug report.
But since the issue persists in LibreELEC 11 as well as 10, I thought maybe I should do it anyway, just case in the Developers might care.
I have created log files in both LibELEC 9, as well as LibreELEC 11 (running daily from yesterday), if anyone is interested in taking a look at this problem?
Looking at the log I don't see anything too obvious as to why this shouldn't work, just a basic 1080p, h264 video as far as I can tell?:

Anyway, I would love to help fix this in any way I can... Just let me know if there is anything or anywhere I could send the logs?
Thanks again!
