Hello there,
here’s a problem I have been noticing for quite some time now and which I would like to bring up:
After pausing a video the decoding goes on for a few frames. You can tell by the picture moving on a bit (depending on the on screen motion of course) although no sound is being played. As a result the playback resumes at a later point compared to where it has been paused in the first place. That can be really annoying when being forced to pause during a dialogue scene as it requires to jump back to avoid missing part of the dialogue.
Can anyone confirm this kind of behaviour?? The problem persists after changing from ION1 to Apollo Lake hardware and from Kodi 17.0 to 18.0 (both running on LibreELEC). Kodi 16.0 (running on OpenELEC) didn’t show this kind of behaviour IIRC, but I’m not really sure …
Here are the specs of my current setup:
OS: Milhouse LibreELEC #0221 running Kodi 18.0 alpha 1
Hardware: ASRock J3455-ITX controlled via Logitech diNovo Edge
The latest change in #0221 (Search backwards for keyframe when resuming playback PR:11713) does not change the described behaviour as it only seems to apply to fully stopped and then resumed playback.
Thanks a lot in advance for your replies.
