Blocks in FF and REW

Example via youtube above.

This issue has gotten better but virtually every blu-ray mkv created with MKV shows these macro blocks when fast forwarding over 4x or rewinding at 2x or more.

In the youtube video I am using XBMC but I have able to reproduce in other players like VLC etc.

Anyone else notice this...

Hi!

Do you see similar behavior when playing your original source material on the same equipment?

I cannot play the source (blu-ray) on the same equipment (no blu ray drive). But VLC does have the same behavior playing the m2ts files off the disk on my PC.

Encoding the mkv with clownBD/eac3to (using fps 24000/1001 aka 23.97...) it still persists but not nearly as bad.

So it is more then likely the media but I have been seeing this in all my rips for the last year. The last time I looked into this eac3to/mkvmerge was significantly better in ff/rew...

Maybe this is normal or the best we can get. I know many people don't use ff/rew anymore, they just do 30sec skips etc...
