Certain videos streamed from local PC stutter when played on Android TV

Hello

Im not too sure what to do anymore. I have small Lenovo M700 that I use as torrent box connected via ethernet to router. I also have Xiaomi smart TV connected via ethernet cable to router.

I have it set up that I can watch files from the lenovo PC on my TV.

Over the past month I have noticed that certain files turn into slideshow. Audio plays fine but video freezes every 0.5-1.5 seconds at random. Opening the file on computer or my smartphone plays it fine. Issue is just on TV.

I tried:

  • Hardware Acceleration - Tried all 4 settings, no effect.
  • Preferred video resolution - Tried best available, 720p and 240p, no effect.
  • Network caching value - 0 by default, works for other files, the ones with issue i tried 0, 300, 1000, and 8000. No effect, just longer to start playing.
  • OpenGL ES2 usage - Tried all 3 options, no effect.
  • Deblocking filter settings - tried all 5 options, no effect.
  • Frame Skip - no effect.

I cleared app data, relogged into the SMB and still nothing.

Running VLC for Android 3.7.0. Apparently thats latest version available on TV.

Thought it was a ring at first. Turns out to be bird band from 1939.

This area saw heavy fighting in 1945. Hundreds of soldiers fell, dozens have been found since then. In about a month construction of motorway will begin so we try search thoroughly for any that still are MIA/KIA.
