Hi,

VLC has long time problems on Nexus 10 on all versions.

1. Android 4.4.4: VLC shows that HW acceleration isn't possible and the use software decoder.
2. Android 5.0.2: just crashed.

Are they known problems?

On 4.4.4 all VLC versions (beta, release, nighties) can't decode it in HW mode.
On 5.0.2 vlc crashed with the following error message: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8ynj2noed310u ... 3.png?dl=0

.ts files interlaced cannot be decoded by many hardware.

android.media.MediaPlayer and android.media.MediaCodec support that stream. I'll try to find another stream example.

Here an example which is not working with HW decoding on VLC 2.0.6 and recent nighties, however other players can do it. http://www19.zippyshare.com/v/OC8R25h4/file.html

It is a 1080i h264 stream as streamed by my cable provider.
