@rainman74

Can you be specific with build you are using. Should be able to get the info from Settings>System Information.

Which was the last build where it worked correctly? A Debug Log will help

I have tested Win 64 KodiSetup-20180617-e14a6f89-master-x64 and no issue there.

@Karellen The problem concerns as far as I can tell only the Android build, I have noticed it from the release kodi-20180602-b5181d72-master-arm64-v8a, but can't tell when exactly this occurred.

No technical description / no logs  -> no issue.

No technical description / no logs  -> no issue.

Far too many changes -> no sufficient developer testing before committing -> great risk.

Joking aside, what exactly do you need? I don't think you'll find the origin of slow motion in the log, do you?
But I can supply you with anything you need.

Please don't take offense, you're doing a great job!

Slow down is only on Android 5.1.1 (Fire TV), on my Android 7.0 tab there is no slow down!

@peak3d here is the debug log: https://paste.ee/p/3dosU

[peak3d]

Your stream is opened using ffmpeg s/w decoder and your device seems not be powerful enough to handle it.
Reason is that your stream doesn't provide width and or height, that is not allowed in current implementation:

https://github.com/peak3d/xbmc/blob/mast...c.cpp#L407

Most probably an issue in your source data.

@FernetMenta why is stream not parsed from ffmpeg until ffmpeg has valid SPS before selecting decoder?

[rainman74]

My device is a Fire TV 4k box that can play 1080p h.264 streams smoothly even without MediaCodec.

The tested VOB streams are part of regular PAL DVDs (576i), which were copied 1:1 to hard disk.

In Kodi v18 builds at the end of last year they were still running smoothly, but I can't tell exactly from which Kodi build this is no longer the case.

@peak3d it passes this block https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...o.cpp#L121
because codec id seems to be zero

I've installed kodi-20180629-2044feb3-aaudio-arm64-v8a.apk but can't see any change
