I've noticed an interesting playback anomaly that I think might be more of an ffmpeg thing, but I wanted toget your take on it.

So the player I am using for this (I haven't tested it on another one yet) is a Sony BluRay Player.

When I play a movie that has an intentionally pixelated image in it, like the dream sequence in Prometheus or some of the time viewer sequences in Deja Vu (watching these movies at 1080p), I have noticed stuttering.

This stuttering only happens during the duration of these pixelated sequences.

Have you heard of this before?

PS... I will see if I get the same result on my Samsung Smart TV.
