Hi,

using a 1080p display with a Core i7-6700K at stock clocks paired with 32GB dual channel DDR4-3000 memory, running Xubuntu 16.04 with the following PPAs:

https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ub...cs-drivers
https://launchpad.net/~wsnipex/+archive/ubuntu/vaapi
https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archive/ubuntu/mpv-tests
https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archiv...mc-nightly

With VAAPI enabled, playing back the following file for example:

http://demo-uhd3d.com/fiche.php?cat=uhd&id=143

results in some hefty clored blocking artifacts throughout the entire playback. The playback itself seems to be smooth though (no stutter).

When disabling VAAPI (software decoding then probably), the artifacts are gone, but the framerate is horrible.

Same happens when playing it back via mpv.

What could that be?

Even if it doesn't work with VAAPI, a Core i7-6700K should still be able to decode UHD HEVC in software, shouldn't it?

I know its possible. I think other projects have done it. As far as I can tell from my reading of the Kodi WIKI, gapless playback is not supported for ogg. Is that correct?

This happens once in a while. When I scrape TV episodes, sometimes the title doesn't get populated. In this case it is for One Piece Season 17 and 18. Some episode names scrape properly and others do not. Adding a paste of a manual scrape of Season 1...
