    Hello all,
    I'm testing the new Video Player to see if I can use it in place of AVPro for my 4k VR videos on mobile, and sadly I've experienced many lags during playback (at least on my Samsung S6).
    I've used H.264 and H.265 videos, but with both codecs the video stop to play for a while before continuing playback, obviuosly dropping many frames (it happens many times).
    Does anyone have a suggestion to avoid this issue (maybe some tips on codec specs), or should I necessarily buy AVPro (that work very well with 4k videos on mobile but it's really expensive...)?
    Thanks!

    Try disabling multi-threaded rendering in player settings.

    Thanks a lot marcusestes! It work!
    It's funny because with AVPro you should enable it.
