Does anyone know if video playback is possible without hardware acceleration (using the InputStream Adaptive method)?
The thing is that there is no picture on video playback if I disable the Media Codec (Surface) acceleration in Kodi's Player settings. I don't need 4K for now (I have a Full HD plasma TV) and I think that my Shield TV 2017 Pro is powerful enough to manage 1080p streams using only CPU resources, but sometimes I would like to watch some Prime old movies in Standard Definition with more detail using Kodi's HQ software scalers like Lanczos 3 or Spline 36, which are not available if this option is enabled.
Thanks for any input.
