    Hi, we're testing Everyplay with our iPhone 6s running iOS 10 (updating to iOS 11 soon), and we noticed that the video recording with Everyplay is jittery upon playback. You can see this in the video recorded by Everyplay at the following link.

    Is this a known issue? Does it have an easy fix on my end or is this something we'll have to wait for a patch release for?

    Hi there,

    looks like you're using Vuforia, am I right?

    Currently Everyplay has an issue with Vuforia and the Metal API which results in jittery video playback. This affects only Metal, so if changing to GLES is possible for you it would fix the problem.

    Another workaround is to use this:
    Code (CSharp):
    1. Application.targetFrameRate = 30;
    2. Everyplay.SetTargetFPS(30);
    That will cap the FPS to 30, but it has mitigated the issue at least on our tests.

    Cheers,
    Niko
