OK, I'll reboot and enable video component logging tonight. I'll leave CEC debug on too as it makes an easy way for me to mark the logs when a stutter happens (I can get Mrs B to press pause just after).

CEC debugging is not required for that. The "OnKey" message appears with standard debug.

I don't think it is file specific, but I am happy to get a file to you if that will help. The family has been playing through a season of episodes of "Bones", so they are all from the same source. But replay the same section and it is fine.

But if you just play the video file from start to end would you expect to typically get a "CMMALVideo::GetPicture - called but m_output_ready is empty" error?
If so, then it's worth getting me a file and I'll see if I can reproduce.
