playing video at high speed, idTV vs VLC(Windows)

Postby cleon » 17 Jan 2014 13:21

Hi,
When I try playing video at high speed on my iDTV such as 4x, 8x and even 16x it can play still well. If I plug the external disk via usb or play the video directly using VLC on Windows, it produces a lot of messy squares and cannot be seen well starting from 3x. What are the reasons and if there is any way to work around this?
Thanks

Because the decoder is too late.

Do you mean the decoder or its code is outdated?
Is there anything we can do to improve this?

I want to view it at 3X so I can save time. Perhaps a bigger cache size for VLC may help?
It is not worth the money just for doing this.

I think the issue is that the decoders are too slow...
