why dont kodi fully switch to LAV, seems to me they are more stable and get updated more often

Give time to ffmpeg. They have a really good team of coders. They follow a strict line of rules to give a really good end product.

The same does team kodi: Basics first - features in a non disruptive common way second.

Yeah, on that I have no objections, really. On how the whole DSPlayer thing was handled yes, but in sticking to ffmpeg stable they are doing the right thing, IMO.

do we even know if the ffmpeg team are working on 3D MVC playback?

Libav is working on it. Also there is already a fork of ffmpeg that already have it done.

Never noticed any issue with fast forwarding. Granted, I use skip steps to navigate through a video. This was introduced in newer versions of Kodi.

i'm not talking about skipping through the video, i'm talking about playing the video at 2x-32x speeds

Why not try skip steps? They are fully-configurable and the best way to navigate through a video.

hi everybody ...

I was away from Kodi and all that stuff for a moment and I just wanted to know if this is normal that no new version of Kodi DSPlayer is out since several weeks ...

Thanks in advance for your replies ...

because they completely skip the content?

sometimes i want to see what happens... just faster.

No video player does this well - even if some do it better than others. Kodi itself doesn't. You have to think about what is happening to produce the results you're asking for. If you're ff-ing at 32x the video speed, everything has to work 32x harder. Your server has to serve the file 32x faster, the network has to deliver 32x the bandwidth, your video decoder (either HW or SW) has to decode 32x faster... etc.

If you're playing back SD content, you'll be able to get faster speeds than HD content before it starts to break up. Either way it's going to be asking more out of the equipment than it can provide.

This is why Kodi developers even recommend using skipping instead of fast forwarding.

The regular version of kodi does it perfectly...

Kodi DSPlayer doesn't have a developer anymore. Jarvis 16.1 is the last version.

Link to latest version here: 1966550 (post).

while were are on the subject of subtitles, does anyone else have glitchy playback when they set subtitles on?. The odd thing is if I start the movie everything is fine but when the first subtitle plays, boom glitchy playback which wont stop until you stop and start the movie again, doesn't stop even if you pause, disable subs and play again.

Using Thor the dark world as an example, I was trying to get the dark elves subs working. I selected the right sub from the audio menu while paused, 2 of 4 and it works but playback is glitchy.

I've tested this in MPC, no problems at all. The files is a 3D MVC frame packed MKV muxed straight from a bluray using make MKV.

Any ideas?

Try creating a rule to play all 3D movies with MPC-HC.

Thats easily done but defeats the object of using DSPLAYER, might as well just use the normal KODI player.
