I cant get 1080i hdtv to play smooth any longer with omxplayer, same for live-tv and recordings using Tvheadend.
Dvdplayer plays them "ok" (gui shows increasing skip)

I've just tested this with #1018, streaming over SMB, using omxplayer, and it played fine.

My settings are:

• Video OSD:
  • Deinterlace: Off
    
• Settings > Video > Acceleration:
  • All video acceleration options enabled (so playing with omxplayer)
    
• Settings > System > Video output:
  • Adjust display refresh rate to match video: Off
    
  • Sync playback to display: Disabled
    
  • Vertical blank sync: Always enabled
    
• Settings > System > Audio output:
  • Audio: 2.1 audio over HDMI
    
  • Output configuration: Optimized
    
  • Stereo upmix: Disabled
    
  • Maintain original volume on downmix: Enabled
    
  • Resample quality: GPU accelerated
    
  • Keep audio device alive: 1 minute
    
  • Audio output latency: 100ms
    
  • Enable passthrough: Disabled
    

I'd suggest renaming .xbmc -> .xbmc.bak to see if the problem continues. If not, then it might be a setting or addon that is causing the problem. Add back your addons/settings until the problem returns.
