When skipping through MPEG2 recordings I get grey blocky artifacts with dvdplayer, the above setting fixes it for omxplayer. Is there a dvdplayer equivalent?

OpenELEC 5.0.5, and I tested it just an hour ago. Artifacts exist with dvdplayer, none on omxplayer. Edit: I should mention, I added <omxdecodestartwithvalidframe> when I was still running 5.0.1, so it may well be enabled by default now-- it just doesn't appear to work for dvdplayer.

I've tested this with an MPEG2 in a .ts file, and no artifacts with dvdplayer (and I get them before the patch was in).
I think you'll have to provide a sample file that shows the issue (e.g. on dropbox or google drive).

Wondering if anyone was able to reproduce this? Might end up trying a nightly at some point since I'm having a few other unrelated but noticeable bugs that I feel would have been posted already if others were experiencing them

Yes all of my (US) TV recordings are 720p/1080i MPEG2 and I have the same grey block artifacts when skipping around. I've also noticed it that it happens when starting playing back of a recording as well.
Also running OpenELEC 5.0.5 on a rpi2. I've only used omxplayer.

Is there any way to improve the responsiveness of this? It seems like it's always looking forward for the next I frame rather than also considering backwards to find the closest I frame.

Is the value for this "1" or "true"?

Data type is boolean so I think both will work but I use 1.
