I’ve ripped my True Romance UHD to my server for playback on my numerous clients and have a weird issue that only seems to affect my coreelec boxes (I have an N2 and an N2+).
On the disc it has 2 versions of the films, and uses seamless branching to allow a player to choose which version to watch. I’ve ripped the director’s cut using makemkv and it plays back fine on all of my Windows and Mac clients with standard kodi 19.1.
For some reason, and this is where it gets very weird, when I play on both coreelec devices it pauses the video at the point where it would’ve then used the branching to play the alternative version of the film. I’ve also confirmed this with another rip of Wrath of Khan that also uses branching on the disc. The film carries on playing as the counter moves and the audio continues but the picture remains paused until I manually skip forward of back.
No anomalies are reported in the coreelec log itself so I’m scratching my head at this weird problem.
It was there a while ago but I can’t find it now.
I used it in my own CE builds, it doesn’t seem to break anything. So yeah, I think you should consider picking it.
