Hi all,
I recently upgraded from Kodi 15 to 16, since the upgrade the libstagefright hardware acceleration has been replaced with MediaCodec (Surface). Because of this, SD Live TV is lagging when streamed from the TVHeadend backend, and HD Live TV is out of sync and also lagging.
I can still play 1080p mkv files absolutely fine from a network share, it's only affecting Live TV (probably due to the way TVHeadend encodes the stream?).
There's an option within the TVHeadend config settings (Stream > Stream Profiles) to opt for a different encoding method, however the Kodi TVHeadend PVR client doesn't seem to allow anything but the standard htsp stream.
Is it possible to use another PVR client, or another way to stream from TVHeadend using a different encoding method to Kodi? (works fine to Windows).
Cheers!
