Video playback pauses before looping (compared to 1.3)

Open Fweeb opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

When playing back video files (h.264 encoded MP4 with no audio), playback doesn't maintain framerate when looping back to the beginning. The same video file loops smoothly in DJV 1.3 without any fiddling.

I have memory cache enabled and I've enabled Play Every Frame, but neither seems to have any effect on playback. If Play Every Frame is enabled, playback just stops at the end of the video rather than looping. If I disabled Play Every Frame, the video will loop, but playback pauses and then the vide races at a higher FPS to catch up to looping.

For what it's worth, the video files in question are roughly 6 seconds long.

Hi, and sorry for the delay! Currently the memory cache is not working with movie files, but I hope to have that fixed in the next version. Once that is fixed the looping should work much better. For reference here is the issue tracking the fix for the cache: https://github.com/darbyjohnston/DJV/issues/66
