[mythtv] HD Video frame drops with Android Frontend on Fire Stick

Currently running with - mythfrontend-20190414-arm-v30.0-43-g5a67176bf90.apk

Hardware - Fire TV Gen 3 Pendant version.

I've followed the setup guide under
 - https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Android#Amazon_Fire_TV_Stick_4K

This option isn't present in this build
 -  Advanced Playback Settings -> Allow YV12

I've tried this option on and off and I still get a lot of frame drops
 -  Advanced Playback Settings -> Extra stage

I've also tried with/without the de-blocking filter and it doesn't make a
different.

To reproduce the issue set the playback profile as per the guide above and
then via the setup wizard try to play "Test High Definition"

Let me know if there is any more debug information I can provide.
