Hi Team,

So I had an old Dell Optiplex I7 running Kodi Matrix, which finally failed on me a few weeks ago. I have replaced it with :-

Beelink Mini-S 12 PRO.
Intel N100 800 MHz.
16 GB RAM (single stick)
Windows 11 Pro 21H2

Kodi Version is:- Kodi Matrix 19.3


TV is :-

Sony Bravia 4K UR2
Android TV OS Version 10
Kernel Version 4.19.75
#1 Tue Jul 18 04:49:50 JST 2023

Since replacing it, I've had a couple of issues.
Firstly with some minor video playback (stuttering) on a few H265 video's.

Secondly, I have some audio crackling.

Before I get in to debugging could someone point me in the direction of some preferred, or optimal configurations for this kind of setup?
I am guessing I may have had one or two tweaks on my previous Windows-side config, but as that system is no longer accessible I can't track them down.

Additionally, there is probably a good thing to try and revisit my Windows and TV-Kodi settings anyhow.

So advice would be appreciated. It's worth noting, that my Beelink 12-PRO does run a bit hotter than my previous system but I'm hopeful I can tune what I have to acceptable levels.

Thanks in advance,

Goat.

before attempting to tweak an outdated version of kodi i would just install a current release or newer https://kodi.tv/download/windows

19.3 is going to lose support any time now and there have been a number of improvements since 19.3 was released in October of 2021 (2 years 2 months ago)

Ok. Good point.

I've done that but it seems to have lost all of my settings.
I'll have to re-add my SMB shares and test.

OK. Shares added back in.
Same issue with audio crackle.

Let me know if you there are optimal settings I need to know about, thanks.

audio crackling would need a Debug Log

did the update resolve the stuttering?
