[Bug]: micro stuttering video #1298
Comments
|
+1 Same Problem. |
|
@reisender1967, is it new with 6.3.3 or there before with official release (latest 6.2.x)? |
|
It is also with the official release.
I had hoped that the new “Android timely frame” setting would help, but the problem persists.
|
|
@reisender1967, if this is linked to judder, could you try adaptive frame rate options? |
|
I have just tested it on simple stutter test from YouTube https://youtu.be/FVNO-ehIOdw , downloaded on NAS - same result, copied to TV's internal memory - same result, the bitrate is dramatically low and even then I experience that hiccups. I've recorded in slow motion so if you will not ba able to reproduce or not seeing that please let me know. It's not big stuttering, probably most people would not notice it, my girlfriend is also fine with it 😂, but it can be annoying |
I've tried every option available, even in hidden menu 🫤 |
|
EDIT: @piter-pit and @reisender1967 do you confirm that you have NOT enabled playback speed (I notice a difference with youtube 60Hz stutter video on my phone at 60Hz)? |
You mean my video or @reisender1967 sent something? In my case playback speed is disabled, was enabled - still stutters, maybe less with disabled but still, similar larger buffer helped a little bit, but I maybe there is different reason |
|
my bad: @piter-pit youtube 60Hz "stutter" video. |
Ok, and do you see the case? I can try to present it side by side with different player |
Playback speed is not enabled. Adaptive frame rate options is on and works. |
|
@piter-pit, if I disable in the "hidden menu" the setting "android timing", I have the 60Hz video stutter test without any jumps on nvidia shield on the tv without adaptive refresh rate. Do you experience the same? |
|
Hi @courville by hidden menu you mean that additional menu that appears after 6 times clicking on software decoder? I see no option for Android timing unless it's android frame rate feature but then it does not work on my side |
|
When you click 6 times, you enable advanced options, and there is a new one called Android frame timing at the end of the video section. Disable it and let me know if this is any better please. This option is new to 6.3.3. |
OK, I think I switch that off and on when checking prerelease version also. The effect is the same. Please see video that I recorded side by side on Nova and on a different player. It might not be visible on cell phone screen VID20241019100651_2.mp4 |
|
@piter-pit thanks for the video and I am also able to reproduce since the beginning. |
|
It's the same - stuttering with the settings you mentioned. |
|
BTW there is configuration that gives no stutter android mediaplayer as a decoder. But then I have no sound |
|
What setting is that? I would like to test it. |
|
OMG I got it. I mean I went back to all default settings, so: HW decoder, fps matching and android frame timing but disconnected HDMI ARC/eARC cable and no stuttering, when connected with even AVR shutoff - stutters |
In advanced options (to active click 6 times on and off software decoder) then change decoder |
that is really strange behavior. |
|
Not sure what is happening but now, after plugged in AVR the stutter test video is still fine but movies are played few fps despite HW decoder... Let me go back to 6.2.97 version |
|
reboot tv? |
|
Ok, now when forced passthrough is enabled, I have no few fps, no stutter but also no 5.1, only stereo. It was working fine on AC3 before all this debugging 🫤 |
|
@piter-pit can you please clarify what you mean by "few fps"? Do you mean that it plays really slow? |
|
Yes, it's like 2-5 fps frame by frame. I started to use external player but triggered by nova does not load subtitles... |
|
On 6.2.90 I was able to set mode 2 passthrough and 5.1 is pass to AVR but stutters are back. Something must be off in audio video sync? But only in nova? |
|
I can confirm the problem of micro-jerks in connection with the sound. |
|
I think micro stutter is over in 6.3.4, however when 5.1 sound should be passthroughed to AVR there is just silence with few fps |
|
@piter-pit thanks for the feedback. |
|
@courville yes, it's connected via eARC and there are not much to select either passthrough or pcm (stereo). Passthrough is selected. The configuration works fine on any streaming platform (Netflix, Disney, max or prime) and with different player that supports 5.1 output. On nova it also worked 🫤 |
|
@piter-pit, I do not see what I changed for having not working in nova now. It would help if you could pin point the last version that is working. |
|
@courville as I mentioned few post earlier. In 6.2.90 it was working when set to mode 2
|
Problem description
I have some issues (some people on the internet also) with micro stuttering when playing h264 or h265 1080p videos, interesting is that it's only on nova player, other players work fine, and I also tried all options like different decoders, frame syncs, buffer sizes etc
Steps to reproduce the issue
Play any 1080p videos with constant movement
