I'm hoping someone knows if there are any workarounds (updates, tweaks, etc.) other than disabling hardware acceleration. Higher bitrate videos become choppy w/ software decoding.
Symptoms:
During playback, a video freezes while the audio continues to play. Key presses are non-responsive and the PC needs to be powered off/rebooted to regain normal function.
Config:
Asus Chromebox w/ standalone openelec v4.0.6 install. Media is being pulled (over SMB) from a NAS on a 1Gb link. The same content works fine on an older Zotac zbox w/ celeron CPU and nvidia GPU.
I believe this is the associated bug, there haven't been many updates unfortunately. Does anyone know if progress has been made?
