in response to IPTV: ORF1 stutters - #8 by someuser

I dont have a 4K TV

Direct playback from eMMC

Played fine on my 1080p TV

Used my A95X F3 S905X3 2gb/16gb
Running CE 9.2.3

Plays fine on my 4K TV (A95X Max S905X2)

can someone confirm this with an odroid n2?
this was working about half a year ago fine on my n2 too, but after some updates it does not work anymore

Issue confirmed
Odroid N2 running CE 9.2.3 eMMc 4k HDR TV

thanks for confirming this!

just wondering if this is a problem or common when there are 2 video tracks in that file?

Could be related to the dolby vision metadata. But it’s just me guessing.

It is entirely possible for a video to have more than one video stream, just as you can have more than one audio.

Each preferred stream type can be selected by the player.

So having dual streams is not an issue per se.

I did note that whilst one area of the player identified both 4K and 1080p streams being present, when playing, the skin (confluence in my case) identified both as being 4K but whether that has any relevance to an issue, I do not know.

just wondering if there is any progress here?
