Choppy video playback #10
Comments
Do you get choppy playback when you hit the 'preview' button, or when the screen saver starts? Sorry for all the questions, I'm trying to figure out where your error may be. I hope I can find a solution. |
I get it both when using the preview and when it starts by itself. No worries, hopefully we can solve it. |
That's good that it plays fine in the video tab; it probably not anything network related then. Can you open your task manager while the screensaver is running to see if it is a resources problem? If you open the app from the command line with |
Office-PC: stuttering videos. Played the cached files with VLC or Mediaplayer: everything is fine. Sounds like an ugly deep problem.. |
Thanks for the screenshots; I they helped a lot. I did some tests of my own and Aerial is using larger than expected resources. Aerial does some processing on the videos to help with a few things. |
I am also getting choppy playback when the screensaver activates. However when i click the preview function, it is smooth. In the video tab, it is also smooth. It's only when the Screensaver activates on its own it is choppy. Aerial Version Additional context |
OrangeJedi is actually working on it. In branch 0.5.2 performance-improvements are listed. Be patient :-) .... |
@MadNBG is right, v0.5.2 has some massive performance improvements; Aerial should use at least half as much power now. Let me know if this solves everyone's issues. If you are still having problems you can go into the playback tab and click @prediscover I saw this issue in my testing too. Do you have any other screensaver settings on like 'On resume, show lock screen'? Let me know if this update helps out. |
Yup @OrangeJedi . Just upgraded to 0.5.2 from 0.5.1 without changing any settings and it's smooth now. For what it's worth, I do have On resume, show lockscreen on. |
yes, great success. Here, on integrated IntelGraphic, there is only a bit stuttering. Also, I hear the fan powering up, I guess showing the video is heavy on CPU/GPU. (I can't look in the taskmanager - only one display attached. It's a not powerfull PC.) Someone mentioned a black playback - that problem seems to be gone too. |
Seems to be completely fixed for me too - everything is smooth now :D |
Glad to hear everything is working! |
