I have a nest home and a chromecast on a tv. Both will stutter playback when the speed is set above "normal" for some TV series and play fine at 2x for others.They are doing direct play, so I know it isn't a transcoding issue. It might be something to do with the codecs or bitrates. 

Here is  some media info on one file that gives me trouble

Audio Bitrate
192000

And here is some media info on a file that plays perfectly:

Audio Bitrate
640000

Video Bit Depth

As you can see, most things are very similar, but I have playback issues when increasing the speed on the first file.
