Full Version: New nightlies buffering problems when skipping/timeseek
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Dear KODI developers.

I would like just to report that between nightly versions:
KodiSetup-20150207-54b069d-master.exe
and
KodiSetup-20150208-c84bece-master.exe
something horribly happened with buffering when skipping/timeseek.

My advancedsettings.xml content is as follows
PHP Code:
<advancedsettings>
     <
video>
         <
usetimeseeking>true</usetimeseeking>
         <
timeseekforward>30</timeseekforward>
         <
timeseekbackward>-10</timeseekbackward>
         <
timeseekforwardbig>300</timeseekforwardbig>
         <
timeseekbackwardbig>-60</timeseekbackwardbig>
     </
video
</
advancedsettings

From nightly version KodiSetup-20150208-c84bece-master.exe on until today:
If I make timeseek it buffers now from 1 to several seconds and the short one skips forward for 13-14 seconds (after a few seconds of buffering waiting) instead of 30 seconds (as my advaced settings are configured)

With nightly version "KodiSetup-20150207-54b069d-master.exe" and before:
Everything is correct and instantaneously.

I am on Win 8.1 on a Intel NUC platform.

Is there any sollution to this matters?

Thank you in advance and thank you for your great work

so you can throw those as.xml settings away
Thank you for fast answer.
Is is safe to keep the as.xml for now and it is ignored by kodi then, or I have to remove those settings entirely?

Will try in the evening when I come home.
Yes those entries should be ignored by Kodi from now on, but it's still a good idea to tidy up the xml by removing unused advanced settings.
Thanx to Martijn and jjd-uk... the "issue" is resolved.

I can see that timeseekforwardbig and timeseekbackwardbig are still applicable from advancedsettings.xml, which is nice.
