Hi,
I went trough many answers in the discussion, but it seems there's a lack of the really basic information. I understood that such video issues are coming from the fact that we switch to newer formats etc. and we should use HW for decoding. So how come such VLC plays everything smoothly without any of such problems (all with default setting straight from installation), whereas KODI struggles?
My above statement is based only on Sony Android TV where I use KODI.
@rainman74 - I just try you workaround with ffmpeg - fingers crossed
BTW. Except of this problem I fight with other one - some video files (old *.avi) are not played at all. Meaning I press "play" KODI tries to load it (I see the spinning "circle" logo) but nothing happens...I can wait forever and move won't play :/
