We are using VLC in combination with Python on Raspberry PI 3 computers and we found out that with the default settings movies are shown rather NOT smooth.
However, when changing one setting of the VLC program (without using Python), to be specific, Tools, Preferences, Video, Output, from Automatic to "MMAL X11 Splitter for Raspberry PI" all movies we have are shown fine without any stutter so to say.
I am attempting to make Python => My Script => Python VLC lib => VLC use the same setting by specfying in code: self.Instance = vlc.Instance('--vout=mmal_xsplitter')
However, based on the NOT smooth display of movies (when using my script) this does not seem to work.
Any suggestions on how to proceed? Hope to hear,
