fine, but one issue that I have is some of my videos (not
recordings) don’t play any more. There is a black “Please
wait” screen then it goes back to the menu with a “Could not
open decoder” error message. I’ve included the relevant log
lines from the frontend below.<br class="">

Let me know what playback profile you are using.<br class="">
<br class="">
There are some problems of this type on Master and I have
made a fix for<br class="">
them, but I was not aware of this on version 29<br class="">

Please open a ticket and supply a sample video so that I can look
into it. Set the component in the ticket as Ports - rpi. You can
extract the first 100MB of video using a command like this (see
below). Put the video on dropbox or some site where I can download
it.<br class="">
