.mkv videos freezing on Sony 2014 KDL-50W685A
Posted: Mon Jun 01, 2015 6:27 pm
As the title describes, videos play fine but regulary freeze. This can last for lets say 30s and then the video starts to play again. Sometimes the video won't start playing again. Then when I rewind, hit play again the video plays fine again for a few minutes before freezing again. I don't think there is something wrong with the format of the videos. I use handbrake for converting. When I put the movie on an external hard disk and plug it into my TV's usb port, the video plays fine without freezing!
The profile I use is standard 'Sony Bravia tv (2013/14)'
I read a few topics on this forum about other freezing problems, but most of them are with Blu Ray players. I stream directly from my PC to my TV (KDL-50W685A) over a wired ethernet connection. Is there some way I can log the playing sequence, or scope the data transfer between PC and TV?
When I play the same movies on an older Sony TV (KDL 37EX720 from 2011) they play fine without freezing! However I use transcoding in this case...
Thank you for your time and help.
