    Hi guys,

    im using the MMM-videoplayer module on a 50 inch TV.
    Does anybody has a proposal of the properties for the played .mp4 file?

    currently im using a file with 400mb and a length of 9 min.

    witdth = 1280
    heigth = 720
    Date rate = 6006 kBit/s
    total rate = 6086 kBit/s
    single bit rate = 25 pic/sec

    if i play this video, the picture jerks and it doesn’t look smooth.
    in which format i have to convert the video for an acceptable result?

    Thanks in advance

      @sceetch Hi! Are you running on a RPi? Not sure if it can handle the load of playing a 720p in the webbrowser (that is used for the mirror)… A RPi 4 may be able to? Not sure… I moved my mirror over to an Intel NUC to be able to play 1080p in full screen… :)

      If you cant find it, make it and share it!

        thx for reply,
        the mirror is running on a RPI 4.
        It seems that this RPI is to weak for this requierement.
        a NUC is in this case, for sure, the right one :-)

        I have to create some different versions of the video & properties.
        This takes a while to convert step by step the video

          Hey snille,
          what are your specifications about your NUC?

          Im thinking about to buy one.
          Its seems that the PI4 is not able to represent videos in full screen with acceptable quality :-(
