JW player 5.6.1768 on 4.6 slow frame rate after long pause.

Has anyone experienced any issues where the player starts to have frame rate issues after a pause for more than say 5 minutes. when resuming it skips or has a low frame rate for a few minutes or the entire length of the video..


I am transcoding from h.264 720p or higher content to the standard subsonic resolution settings
Code: Select all
ffmpeg -i %s -ss %o -async 1 -b:v %bk -s %wx%h -ar 44100 -ac 2 -v 0 -f flv -vcodec libx264 -preset superfast -threads 0 -


also note that I am using the current version of chrome as my browser

EDIT: I am noticing also that the time stated in the player window/frame and the actual time in the movie is not correct, wondering if this is a related issue?

this appears to have been resolved in the 5.10.x update from the www.longtailvideo.com/players/ site. also looks better in full screen mode(hardware acceleration support fixed?)

I didn't see this until now, but I had this issue along with many other issues under JW-Player 5.6.1768.

I had heaps of problem because I was playing video on cheap old AMD laptops (poor hardware), which induced skipping & hangs...

5.9 and 5.10 has indeed solved most of these quirks
