Kodi Community Forum

Hi,

This is on an iPad Air (8.4.1) running Kodi 15.1. If I background Kodi (4 finger pinch) while playing a video and then switch back to Kodi, the video resumes playing, but at an extremely low framerate. The audio plays fine, but the video is almost frozen. If i stop the video before backgrounding, it will resume playing fine. If I pause the video before backgrounding, it will resume playing at the low framerate.

This occurs when I have hardware acceleration (VideoToolbox) enabled. With hardware acceleration disabled, the problem does not occur.

Does anyone else experience this issue?

More details:
- The video file is located on a NAS, shared via NFS.
- iPad Air is not jailbroken. Built and installed Kodi using Xcode 7 beta 6: Kodi 15.1 Git:2015-08-24-423a825 (Compiled on Aug 30 2015)
- Experienced the same issue on 15, 15.1, and 16 alpha 2.

i am more wondering how you got it to compile with xcode7 - for me it gets stuck on building cmake-native already (xcode7 gm)

I basically followed the instructions in the readme, and used the option:

Code:
./configure --host=arm-apple-darwin --with-sdk=8.4

I do have both Xcode 6 as well as Xcode 7 beta 6 installed, and have my CC environment variable pointing to clang. Here are more details of the build environment:

Code:
$ sw_vers -productVersion 

10.10.5

$ java -version

java version "1.8.0_60"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.60-b23, mixed mode)

$ clang -v

Apple LLVM version 6.1.0 (clang-602.0.53) (based on LLVM 3.6.0svn)

Target: x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0

Thread model: posix

In Xcode, I encountered two simple errors in xbmc/linux/XFileUtils.cpp that Xcode was able to resolve (involving PCRE::free).

When testing the low framerate issue, I built several revisions in both the Isengar and master branches. Never had any build problems, but I always encountered the low framerate issue.

Let me know if there is more information that I can provide.

any chance that you build the command line stuff with xcode6 by accident and then built the xcode project with xcode7 somehow? This would be a reason for the crash...

Ensure that you did a xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode7.app/Contents/Developer or something like that to ensure that command line is using xcode7 too - and prepare that it won't weven compile the mative tools depends with that Wink

You're right, that's exactly what happened. Tongue

Thanks for your help Memphiz. Sorry for the confusion.
