General / Video snaps play slowly and will eventually crash AM on RP3
« on: May 21, 2016, 02:35:54 PM »
Hi everyone,
I'm using Floob's RetroPie image v0.4 on my Raspberry Pi 3. I downloaded a bunch of video snaps from this link - http://www.arcadepunk.co.uk/download-hyperspin-video-media/ - and used FileZilla to drag and drop them into the proper directories. A lot of them play just fine, but some of them will play a frame every three or four seconds with audio intact. If I leave it playing it'll eventually crash Attract Mode and bring me to the terminal.
I've found that converting them to FLV using Adobe Media Encoder helps a few of them play perfectly. For the ones that still have trouble playing, I can reduce the resolution by half and they play just fine, but 320x240 videos look less than ideal on a 1080p screen. I'm not quite sure what the deal is since everything plays just fine in Kodi. Does anyone know of a way to get these playing more smoothly? Thanks!
