Description

Hi,

i have several tv devices in my network (esp. "Amazon FireTV Box"), that can't play 1080i/p smoothly in Kodi. I need to create a stream profile for these devices to downscale 1080i/p content down to 720p. That works very well.
BUT all transcoded streams have a framerate of 25fps. A football game with 25fps looks very ugly. I need
  • an option to force the framerate to 50 or 60 fps
  • to set some different deinterlacing methods
  • an option (checkbox or dropdown) to filter stream profiles based on source dimensions (if dim <= 720 then no transcode, if dim > 720, use xyz stream profile)

Thanks very much!

Did you try SPMC on it? I have first used kodi on the fire tv stick ... live tv wasn't working ... but with SPMC no problems anymore ... full hd without problems.
