So if you don't like the transparency level of the codec screen we can adjust that. The rest is done by a Black box....
Well that got me thinking...
Its a well know fact that all AML boxes have issues with Interlaced mpeg2 .vob files found on DVD .ISO Rips.
You can work around this issue as by getting this problematic mpeg2 content to software ffmpeg decode but then you end up with stuttering still because the Software Deinterlacer and AML Black Box VPU Hardware deinterlacer are fighting each other.
Simply Turn the Software Deinterlacer off completely when mpeg2 Software decoding and Bobs your Unkle, let the AML Black Box VPU handle the deinterlacing !
It's most likely a PTS issue. It detects it as 25fps and not as 50i and therefore the timestamps go fully wrong. You can log out the PTS values like you see here:

And see.
