23,976p is smooth but 24p have framedrop every few seconds - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there,
I have trouble to get 24p videos smooth. Videos with 23,976p framerate are overall smooth, doesnt matter if 720p or 1080p or even h.264 or h.265.
But Videos with exact 24p have a framedrop. The Videos are smooth at first, but after a few seconds of playback there is a framedrop and then it's again smooth until the next framedrop.
Is there a way to get this smooth?
I use Kodi with auto frame rate switching on a 1080p setup (AVR = Marantz SR8012; TV = Sony KDL-55HX925 was the 2011 flagship).

[Q] Play HD mkv movies

I'm using rooted official 2.3 rom. when I play mkv 720p movies , video plays at lower frame rate than usual and problem in audio video sync. I use mx player and hardware decoder is not available for mkv. can please anyone suggest me some tips to play 720p smoothly. and is there hardware decoding available in new adreno driver in dzo ics for mkv?
I m using bsplayer lite tha supports mkv.
720p on nearly 480p device?
Professionals can correct me, there are few reasons why it won't play in full speed:
1) .mkv files need usually the same space as .mp4, but it has better quality. BUT needs more power to play. That is the disadvantage of matroska. So if there is too high bitrate on the video, it lags/wents off sync. Overclocking might help.
2) 720p??! Really? This phone CAN record 720p video with good fps, but only in good light conditions. You can even watch them (because they are so low-bitrate), but if you have like 720p movie, it lags due to high bitrate it needs to look clear. BUT why would you want to play 1280x720 (16:9 ) resolution video in 800x480 (16:10) resolution screen? Shapes will look odd... I would prefer 480p (854x480).
3) I'm guessing that your movie is on your memorycard? If your memorycard is too slow, can that be the reason for lagging too. This can be fixed with faster memorycard.
4) Switch to Moboplayer. I don't have any experience of mxplayer, but Moboplayer can use hardware decoding for that.

720p playback

Is anyone able to playback 720p videos on the x9500? Mine plays with huge frame lag...

4k Video Performance on a NAS?

Hi everyone,
I'm considering the Shield as my streaming box from my NAS. Does anyone have experience with it's 4k video capability? How does it handle it and in what player?
I have played 4k videos (on a 1080p screen, but the videos were 4k) on my shield with Kodi, and it played wonderfully. Just make sure your network has enough speed to handle 4k videos, and you should be fine. I recommend a wired notwork of course. I was able to play them over USB2 with no problems.
Edit: Screenshot added. Big Buck Bunny is always used to test performance, so I thought, why not. 8K was too much for this device understandably, though it should be able to handle more than 4k. Haven't tested 3d or anything of that like as I tend to watch insanely high bitrate anime in 10 bit color which is software decode, and plays fine. (24mbp/s will play fine even x264 hi10p).

YouTube 1080p 60fps

I have no option to play 1080p 60fps videos on YouTube.
Normal 1080 works fine .
Just realized this now that you mentioned it. 720p60 works great, but I rarely get the option to crank up to 1080p. And when I do, I can't watch 60 FPS on either resolution. Really odd.
I can play 1080p 60 fps on tube mate app

Question High quality video lagging (look like drop fps)

DMM high quality VR video (and 4k video) very lagging (look like drop fps). I don't know how to it happen. Like GPU can't handle but my Redmi Note 10 Pro playing well
I tested on youtube, AiywjdYcQ_s is the link, at 4k i cannot see any lag in the video, are you maybe watching a x265 video with high bitrate? As that would result in chuppy playback.
I tried a 4k x265 mkv in VLC(on this phone 12gb model) it was a sample with very good picture about 3 mins long running smooth, on TV it looked really good too.
High bitrate x265 files do lag but i don't have any for test.
