Comment(by anonymous):

 Thanks for checking.  I tried again with -v all, and there's tons of logs,
 but as you suspected, everything stops during the pause.

 But... I went looking at the code and found this:

 NuppelVideoPlayer.cpp:
 3695:         if (paused)
 ...
 3732:                 //printf("startplaying waiting for unpause\n");
 3733:                 usleep(500);

 Things improve if I set it to usleep(1000) - i.e. 1ms.  Is there a reason
 this sleep interval is so short?
