Black Screen when playing 1080p H.265 8bit on Android 6.0.1 S905X SOC

[TinderboxUK]

I have an "Super Mini T95P Mini PC BOX + 2GB RAM Amlogic S905X"

If i play 1080p H.265 8bit i get a black screen with audio on some video`s (video file info below), 720p H.265 8bit plays fine.

1080p H.265 10bit plays fine.

If i disable Amlogic in video setting the video with play but only in software and it is choppy.

I have include SPMC logfile in the zip below.

This problem also happens in MX Player when i play in HW, but they play fine in HW+ , I have include MX player log file and codec list in the zip below as well.

Thanks for any help.

Media Codec (Surface) must be used in the Kodi Settings > Video > Acceleration menu

If that does not work you definitely have Firmware problems, which will be no surprise.

Use LibreELEC Kodi Krypton running from a Samsung, Sandisk or Lexar 300x microSDHC card instead.
