Here is an interesting one...
If I play any movie via moving pictures or tv series using MP tv series and I fast forward the video it speeds up x2, x4, x8...etc quite smoothly. This is exactly the same for SD and HD content
Whenever I fast forward recorded tv it works ok, but video playback doesn't speed up like I mention above, it's more blocky and distorted.
Strange thing is I'm using exactly the same codecs etc for everything, my tv series and movies are on slower HDD's and only on sata 2, my network or any other hardware hasn't changed? In fact my recorded tv is on a 500gb sata 3 7200 rpm WD HDD which has a better performance than any of the other drives... Yet won't fast forward tv the same?
Don't get me wrong everything works ok, I'm just trying to understand why just recorded tv does not fast forward as smooth video like all my other media does!
