i have same/similar issue on shield on h264. the mpeg2 is great with
mediacodec. on h264 mainly from hdpvr after a while the playback will
stutter badly, if i exit the playback and restart it is fine. this is
generally around 20minute mark. and i agree it does not happen on
opengl high quality with any deinterlacer. yet the same codec delpoyed
by kodi (on the shield) on the same content does not display the issue.
