I’m running CoreELEC v21.1-Omega on a Minix U22-XJ Max (Amlogic S922X). It palys most of the movie/video just fine but for some videos it takes ages to start; screen goes black and comes back again but eventually start playing. Below is the log from one of those playbacks.

Is it like some codec are missing and trying to run in compatiability mode? Can anyone see what might be happening? also, why it says : DV system is disabled?
