cncb 25 Posted January 17, 2020 Posted January 17, 2020 When watching an MKV created from a standard DVD (MPEG2, 480p), playback is fine for several minutes and then there is a subtle "smearing" effect. I have to stop playback and restart for it to recover. This only happens with DVDs. Anyone else experience this?
Guest asrequested Posted January 17, 2020 Posted January 17, 2020 Probably something to do with deinterlacing.
cncb 25 Posted January 18, 2020 Author Posted January 18, 2020 (edited) That's kind of what it seems like, but there shouldn't be any with 480p source? Edited January 18, 2020 by cncb

ebr 16184 Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 Hi. Exactly how is the item playing? ffmpeg log? https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/739-how-to-report-a-problem/
cncb 25 Posted January 18, 2020 Author Posted January 18, 2020 It is Direct Playing. Seems to happen in Plex as well so might be a Shield system issue. I will try Kodi to see if it is ExoPlayer-related. 1
ebr 16184 Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 Are you sure it isn't actually a problem in the video itself?
cncb 25 Posted January 18, 2020 Author Posted January 18, 2020 I'm pretty sure because it happens at random times and seemingly in all MKVs from DVDs. If I stop and resume playback it is back to normal for several minutes until it usually happens again.
cncb 25 Posted January 19, 2020 Author Posted January 19, 2020 Sorry, I'm not comfortable sharing a movie like this, but they are standard DVDs ripped with MakeMKV so no conversion/processing applied. It seems that Kodi does not have this playback issue so it could be related to ExoPlayer.
