All my hardware encodes playback jerky:
Posted: Fri Oct 12, 2018 7:36 pm
Not in vlc but on my standalone player.
Basically my standalone player needs black bars adding to it so i do a quick NVENC, bump up the bitrate and transfer to to my hardware player. But recently (i've changed nothing,) it's been playing back jerky. and i think its to do with the frame rate.
So i've encoded the first minute with x264 and again with NVENC, no other settings are changed.

I don't know where this is coming from, i can't remove it with the header eiditor in MKVToolNix. It's completely changed my work flow.
