Blocky video

I have successfully playing mkv on my Panasonic L42E30H without transcoding and subtitle is working fine. However, I got some other video that is not the same result. The video playback has some distorted view in some scenes. The scenes that got problem are always in similar position. As I don't know a single word to name it, the video that I saw seems like a previous frame is not completely remove and the new frame overlapped partially in the old frame. Only the moving part in the new frame is shown while part of the old frame is still here. How should I describe it in English? Pardon for my poor vocabulary.

  Code:
ffmpeg version 0.9, Copyright (c) 2000-2011 the FFmpeg developers

  libavfilter   2. 53. 0 /  2. 53. 0
  libswscale    2.  1. 0 /  2.  1. 0

Seems stream 0 codec frame rate differs from container frame rate: 47.95 (200000
00/417083) -> 48.00 (48/1)
Input #0, matroska,webm, from 'Toy.Story.3.mkv':
  Duration: 01:42:35.90, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 11972 kb/s
    Stream #0:0(eng): Video: h264 (High), yuv420p, 1920x1080, SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9,
23.98 fps, 48 tbr, 1k tbn, 47.95 tbc
    Metadata:
      title           : Toy.Story.3.2010
    Stream #0:1(eng): Audio: dts (DTS), 48000 Hz, 5.1(side), s16, 1536 kb/s
    Metadata:
      title           : DTS-ES5.1 1536K
    Stream #0:2(chi): Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, 5.1(side), s16, 640 kb/s
    Metadata:
      title           : DDEX 5.1 640K 蝎方祗


The above result is generated from ffmpeg -i. I wonder whether it's the problem with the bitrate. It's around 11Mb/s. Another video that I have completed without any problem has a lower bitrate. My network connection is like the below.
PC <-- LAN --> router <-- LAN --> TV
All are connected by cable.

Re: Blocky video

I suppose Panasonic devices does not support DTS audio, so
Could remove the DTS track by remuxing the file with mkvmerge tool (AVC+AC3)?

Re: Blocky video

I believe E-series do support DTS Illico.
EDIT: Just tested and yes, E-30 Series at least do support DTS.
