When I'm trying play video files from my camera:
Seems stream 0 codec frame rate differs from container frame rate: 50.00 (50/1) -> 50.00 (50/1)
Input #0, mpegts, from '00027.MTS':
Duration: 00:00:38.88, start: 2.884289, bitrate: 16945 kb/s
Program 1
Stream #0.0[0x1011]: Video: h264 (High), yuv420p, 1920x1080 [PAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 50 fps, 50 tbr, 90k tbn, 50 tbc
Stream #0.1[0x1100]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 256 kb/s
… on my Linux computer (Ubuntu 12.04), I get choppy playback. It's completly unusable... I tried:
Totem
VLC
mplayer
The result is always same issue.
I sent the same video file to a friend who has ubuntu 10.04 to test, and he also has the same issue. He has Windows 7, and confirms that on Windows, the video work well.
I have an Intel® Core™2 CPU 6300 @ 1.86GHz × 2 with GF 9600 GT, with closed NVIDIA drivers. This is not any kind of issue with big files playing slow from an HDD issue. I have an SSD drive!
I spent the last days and nights, trying hundreds of commands for ffmpeg, handbrake, mencoder...
Any of them won't let me create a file with enough quality.
I downloaded few movies from YouTube in 1080p, and playback worked well without any big pixels and choppiness.
I would like have highest possible quality, I will put following files onto a Blu-ray disk so I don't need to compress them to get a smaller size. I just want smoth playback on my Linux box.
On Windows, the same file is working well.
