The Google Nexus Player can play the 720p sample with stutter but not the 1080p one.

The 720P is okay, but not great, minor stutter at the start with the water fall, then is basically okay. The 1080P version is unwatchable, worse than the Shield with Hardware acceleration on. The water spill from the damn, and next scene with water and floating are just nasty to watch with the freezing image and judder. After that, as it is basically static images, it's harder to tell. The red paint/blood pouring section seems okay, but the tape rotating isn't. Audio dropped three times. I watched both 720 & 1080 three times. 1080P is harder to watch than the Shield with hardware acceleration on due to the stuttering. 720P is liveable if it is only a slight stutter at the start. The playback sections are to short with with too many static shots to tell exactly how prolonged the playback issues are for 720P.
I played them again on the Shield to see if I had missed the audio problem earlier, and it was 100% smooth from the start to end for both.

Some results:

Here are screen shots of the 1080P file, I tried to get from similar sections for comparison.
