1080p sources in Kodi on Shield TV

by KingHipposPenis

Is anyone able to stream 1080p sources (Exodus, for example) in Kodi flawlessly? I'm getting tons of frame skipping, and I'm trying to narrow down what's causing it. I'm on a Shield TV Gen2 and have good, wired internet.

This is the kind of quality you get from free, unauthorized distribution of content.

Streaming from the web, or a local hard drive? I have zero problems with streaming over 5 GHz, except for some small buffering issues with 4K movies. I did, however, have some trouble trying to get homerun HD to play smoothly.

It has to do with the refresh rates. There's a setting somewhere to change the refresh rate to match the source.

Sorry I can't be more specific, but google terms related to SHieldTV and Refresh Rate, you'll find something.

Nevermind. Local streaming is what I was discussing. If its just an Exodus issue, then I don't really have a solution

Search for a way to extend the video cache for Kodi, its usually really small so large sized streams don't work as expected. I've watched a 6.7gb 1080p episode through kodi in my SHIELD TV 2017 yesterday (with realdebrid)
