Full Version: Blu-ray movie stutters or fully stops when doing chapter skip
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I have several Blu-ray movies on a server running a Raid 5 setup. The server is connected to a 1Gb switch (network port on server is also 1Gb).
The client is connected with a 1Gb port to the switch.

The blu-ray movies a one on one original copies in folder structures. The playback of the movies on the client are working fine, but when i do a chapter skip the movie stutters for 10~30+ seconders and sometimes is not recovering.
When I pause the movie and then do a chapter skip followed by a play command it works almost every time like it supposed to (pause--> next --> play).

I changed the buffer settings in the advanced settings.xml but this did not help. I see that the buffering is added but it has no influence to the above described problems.
Code:
<advancedsettings>
<network>
<buffermode> 1 </buffermode>
<readbufferfactor> 4.0 </readbufferfactor>
<cachemembuffersize> 154857600 </cachemembuffersize>
</network>
</advancedsettings>

I will do a test with an external hard drive to check if it could be network related and will let you know the results.
- Tested it with an external USB 3 drive and got exactly the same results.

Running Kodi 15.2
Open elec 6.0.3

If there is anything I could do to help, please let me know.
I did a few more tests on another PC with Kodi 16.1 installed.
Windows 10 PC with Kodi 16.1, same result.

The log for the windows pc can be found here:

Tried another Ethernet switch 1Gb with the same result.

Now it looks like a general issue. Do we need to move this topic?

Don't use a file hosting site that requires an email address to view. No dev is going to risk spam to view a link.
Use a paste site (e.g. pastbin.com).

Kodi 16 will get no more fixes. Confirm problem occurs with Kodi 17 and post a trac ticket.
I installed Kodi 17.0 and could not reproduce this problem. Thank you for your help.
