Hello – I’m having a recent problem with my OSMC media centre on a RPI3 over a wired ethernet connection. Some of my movies would play well from the start (if at the beggining of the movie) but when I tried to skip forward by 30 seconds or so, or move to a bookmark, the movie would basically freeze up and maybe move forward one frame every couple of seconds. It was severly stuttering with no audio. Also, the time on the bottom would show up as starting back at 0, even though the video frame was frozen at a later time. The same stuttering issue would happen if I started the movie where I left off last time – it would freeze right there with only minor movement forward.
This is a recent problem for these movies, which played well prior to approximately last week.
After some troubleshooting, I was able to determine the following:
3d movies with TrueHD seem to be the problem. This included Minions 3d, Secret Life of Pets 3d, and Enchanted Kingdom 3d. 3d Movies that used DTSHD were fine.
If I switched to the AC3 5.1 track on the above 3d movies, the movies would work correctly.
non-3d movies worked correctly, including movies using the TrueHD track. Example – Transformers Dark of the Moon.
The above 3d movie issue happened both with audio passthrough enabled and non-enabled.
When using the DTSHD and the TrueHD audio tracks, the on-screen information that provides the VQ and AQ showed the audio KB/s as between 4000 and 6000. When I selected the AC3 5.1 track, the KB/s would go down to approximately 600.
Any Ideas? I’ve posted a log here for playing Secret Life of Pets 3d in TrueHD, which includes me skipping forward a number of times by 30 seconds to recreate the problem.
Thank you.
