Please be more specific - which was the last build that played this file without a problem?

Sorry, I cannot say for sure. I noticed it for a long time with the second sample. I thought it was poorly encoded video, until today test of OE 5.95.

Sure you can - start by bisecting the older builds until you've identified the last working and first non-working builds. Identifying the point at which the problem starts will significantly increase the chances of a fix.

I wouldn't say it's a requirement, but there is an expectation that anyone using these test builds will at least put in the small amount of effort to identify the first build with the problem - it's why there are daily builds, it's really not too much to ask and knowing when the break first appeared will more than likely result in a faster and better fix. Anyone that simply can't be bothered to do this should stick to stable release builds. (2015-05-25, 19:30)MONSTA Wrote: The problem starts since #0429.Thanks, there's a few candidates in that build.

In video files, the video frames typically have two timestamps, a decode timestamp (dts) and a presentation timestamp (pts). Logically you might assume that if available you should display the video frame at the pts and that's what we did in Helix. However this causes stutters with some files (e.g. dvds), and looking closely Kodi gives precedence to dts timestamps so we switched to that. Unfortunately some files prefer dts and some prefer pts. For now I've add a GUI option in video/acceleration settings to "Prefer PTS timestamps". This is a temporary measure partly to make these test builds more usable (rather than reverting to an old build that works better for you) and partly to get additional information. If you have stuttery videos, try enabling the PTS mode and let me know if it helps. Let me know if enabling PTS mode makes any videos worse. This setting may help Leopold's live TV speed up/down problem. RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 15.0) Part 2 - Milhouse - 2015-05-25 This PTS GUI setting will be added in the next build.

I'll try it, it seems easier, for noobies, like me. RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 15.0) Part 2 - MukiDA - 2015-05-26 I'm gonna have to test versions individually to be sure, but for versions of OpenELEC past 521, I'm not getting any 3D playback whatsoever. Trying to play a 3D movie results in a black screen and paused playback. I would also recommend adding "Frame Packed" as a 3D type, outright, rather than attempt to implement it into an existing stereoscopic setup.
