Just for the hell of it, I tried the last version Shine posted on 2012-11-02. Same exact issue. Video plays extremely slow, somewhere around a frame a minute? And no Audio. Will even cause XBMC to crash now and then when I pull up the video information.
I don't have this issue at all in 11.0, and this isn't even a 10bit file. Though I know this doesn't exactly belong here, seems more like a bug with Frodo, it is still anime and figured it would have been notice by someone here first.
I do need to find a way to show the devs the issue I'm having through and what videos are effected by it to see what links them.

Check your audio settings:

The new audio stuff can cause video slowdowns like that if the configuration isn't right.

I've change the settings a few times to try and fix it. The most its really done is caused the video to play at different speeds, +200% at times.
After going through all my files it seems to be just two videos by one specific group and I wouldn't be surprised if it was them (Coalgirls) that did some dumb option no one else touches.
Considering its just these two files I'm just gonna go ahead and keep RC2. Everything else runs smooth, faster, and with the added 10bit I'm gaining a whole lot more than I loose just to play them. If anything, I could always re-encode them myself later, though I will probably do some debug logs and share them as trying to get Video Information on these still causes a crash.
Also a side note, this is a completely fresh system build using a AMD A10 CPU, I've yet to find anything that will bog this down inside of XBMC aside from these two videos.

Hi guys.
I'm currently using the latest version of xbian in my Raspberry Pi, which includes xmbc 12 RC2 and I'm experiencing some problems when playing 10bit mkv videos. Even though the audio works perfectly, the video itself shows some artifacts, specifically when there are black backgrounds in the video.
Is it a problem of xbmc or a problem of the device itself, as it doesn't have a great processing power?
Thanks!

No hw video decode for 10bit h264, I said it before. I'll say it again, forget ever being able to decode 10-bit h264. Not going to happen, it's too niche.

For me, the Kara effects worked fine, with a build from nightly from a week ago, but with a custom allowing MT decoding, and on an i7@870.

A high end PC is not needed for Hi10P decoding. I have an AMD E350, only 1,6 GHz Dual Core with 4GB RAM.
In MPC-HC with lav filters, I have zero dropped frames.
I hope the ffmpeg which xmbc uses, will someday be on par with that. I stepped away from mediaportal and all it's directshow filter configuring, but an external player for xbmc is beginning to look appealing.
