I do watch the movies ( UHD ISO ) through a Wifi5 5Ghz( about 35 MB/s ) from a NAS, and it is choppy.
But it did work without any problems with the old version of infuse pro
Low bitrate movies through Wifi seem OK.
i’m going to copy the file to local disk to see if it is OK.
//update: Copying file to local SSD doesn’t solve the problem . Waiting for 7.3.1 upgrade.
Well according to the Upcoming Features thread it looks like it will be released publicly within a week since there aren’t many days left of December so no need to pm about the beta.
When will 7.3.1 be released? It is christmas and I cant watch any of my HDR movies anymore.
Cant downgrade, too because it is an Appstore app. If it is already fixed in beta, it would have been nice if you would have made it available to the public
I know it can seem like forever but remember that this issue isn’t the only change in the upcoming release. There are several other changes and fixes so Firecore is going to do their best to get it perfect for release. It you got the choppy playback fixed but it broke something else then it’s even more of a problem.
On top of that it is a holiday season so I’m sure some folks are taking some time off for family and friends so that may play into things.
You can keep an eye on the changes and target release info here.
To all those still struggling with choppy playback - there is no fix in 7.3.1 unfortunately - But I know James and co are working on it - it is holiday season bear in mind.
As far as I can tell - this choppy playback issue is limited to ProMotion displays (from the new 14 & 16" MBPs, and the ProDisplay XDR).
There’s an issue with the sync in fullscreen only.
There is a workaround - If you fix your refresh rate to anything other than ‘ProMotion’ in Display preferences, this will enable you to watch content stutter-free. 60Hz works fine for example.
No, it’s not ideal, but if you can easily switch back to ProMotion when you’re not watching content, and I’m sure it’ll be properly fixed soon.
Sad to tell even after this 7.3.1 update there is still micro stutters when viewing fullscreen in all kinds of 4k / hdr movies. ow now i read the comment above the release. its still a known error. hope it gets fixed.
happy hollidays
7.3.1 appears to consume a lot more power than the previous two versions namely 7.3 and 7.2.1, My 14’ MacBook Pro really gets warmed up while playing 4K HEVC HDR/DV content. Other video formats have not been tested.
Screen stutter issue continues to exist regardless of full screen mode or not although much less frequently than 7.3
Even when locked to 60hz i now get stutters.
i think 7.3.0 Never did this.
also looks like 7.3.1 is choppy when windowed. even worse with pro motion on.
but also 60hz micro stutters / freezes only the image dough the audio is fine
