Comment (by s1shed):

 Replying to [comment:22 Jarno Suni]:
 > I also get segmentation faults occasionally when trying to play
 recordings from Yle HD channels in Finland. Now new thing with version 31
 of the frontend is that only zoomed  left top of video is shown. See the
 attachment. The code seems really far from being robust.

 With YLE HD channels I've not seen segfaults yet but I have had some
 videos that just will not play with Nvidia GPUs with ` W CoreContext
 mythplayer.cpp:3154 (UnpauseDecoder) Player(0): Waited 100ms for decoder
 to unpause` displayed in the logs. Sometimes when they play they'll be
 zoomed in as described above. My Thinkpad with its Intel graphics can play
 these same videos but in a zoomed in state. I've also had problems with
 recordings that were started while the program was already in progress.

 I found that I can remux the files and then they'll play within MythTV.
 They can also be played with vlc, mpv, and Kodi without remuxing.
