N3160DC-ITX and 4K video

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi!

I've tried windows 10 (with old drivers, new drivers, different players, etc), LibreElec, local storage, network storage and I can not play 4k (2160p) videos without alot of stuttering, especially if encoded with h.265 HEVC. Even Big Buck Bunny (h.264) 2160p has some stuttering.

This video http://4ksamples.com/elysium-2013-2160p-1-minute-sample-footage/ is impossible to see with all 4 cores of the CPU always at 100%!

Since and I quote from Asrock site:
"- Supports HW Accelerated Decoders: H.264 @ level 5.2, H.265/HEVC @ level 5 (GPU accelerated), JPEG, VP8"
"- Supports HDMI with max. resolution up to 4K x 2K (3840x2160) @ 30Hz or 2560x1600 @ 60Hz"

...this board should be more than enough to watch some 4k videos without any type of problems.

So am I wrong or am I doing something wrong?

The setup

Asrock J3160DC-ITX
1x4G DDR3L SODIMM
120GB SSD
4K Sony TV

Hope someone can help me or else I have to get this board back to the seller.

Thanks for everything.
