What pi is it? 256 or 512?
What USB stick you using? Anything special or just bog standard one.
Quote:It's a USB 3 (Sandisk extreme), but there wasn't a big difference when using the previous USB 2 stick (the Pi only talks USB 2).
The difference between sdcard and USB 2 was much more significant.
The Pi is 512M. In general the changes have reduced memory, so I don't think there will be a problem with 256M.
The video has 32bpp textures for posters/covers. There is a GUI switch to use 16bpp which saves memory if needed.
Also the video was rendering 1080p GUI.
So my guess is that 256M will handle 720p GUI (with 1080p video) at 32bpp, or 1080p GUI at 16bpp.
