Anything after version 2.1.5 seems to be very slow for me. Possibly starting after 2.1.6, but there doesn't seem to be an installer on the FTP.
These are the problems i'm having with the latest versions:
1).
When playing a video If I skip to a different part in the video it can take up to 5 seconds before the video starts playing again.
This takes about 1 second in 2.1.5.
2).
When playing a video and closing VLC it can take up to 5 seconds (at least), before audio stops playing and VLC closes.
In version 2.1.5 this is instantaneous.
Video info: H264 30fps
Is there some magical setting in the newer version that I need to enable that is not on by default like 2.1.5?
