Like some others have reported, I too am suffering from jerky playback in Kodi 17. My previous install of Kodi 16 was perfectly smooth for all content, no issues whatsoever, but since upgrading to 17 everything I playback has judder and stutter.
Here’s my debug log:
System info:
Win7x64
GA-MA78GM-S2HP with Athlon X2 5600
Onboard ATI/AMD Radeon 3200 HD (integrated)
Catalyst 13.1 (last driver released for legacy card)
DXVA Rendering and DXVA2 Acceleration are enabled
I know this system is old, and perhaps it’s just past its time, but it worked so well up to Kodi 16, and I was hoping that this is just a glitch in the new v17 renderer that could be tweaked to still continue to work well on older legacy hardware.
I tried Kodi 17RC1 to see if maybe the incremental update would help but playback is exactly the same, still jerky and not smooth lie previously.
Any chance this will be fixable for older hardware?
Many thanks!
