Hah, just as I defended Thz.la I come across one that fails. MIDE-389, it plays with a steady stutter that's not entirely unwatchable (like Caribbean 1080p), but after 5 mins of watching and fapping, my mind was in a jerky state. So... fine... there's something real to the complaints (not entirely surprising). So I want look for a another FHD to download but alas it's a 10 months old release, no seed...
Then out of (???) desperation, I bring it to work to check on my high end PC, whoop it plays perfectly. No stutter whatsoever. Then I investigate a little and found out MIDE-389 is the only one 59.94 fps Thz.la release, all the rest (those that I check) are 29.97 fps So it seem my bedroom budget PC is choking on the 60 fps, not the frames are missing from the release.
So now I am not sure my experience with MIDE-389 is related to the complaint against Thz.la. At least it proves to me (again) that some (many) playback issue are hardware performance issue. 1920x1080x60 is a lot of pixels to decode and render. Yes sometimes the release groups mess up (MIDE-389 I consider a minor slip, since it's quite fixable by re-encoding)
I am even hoping that tweaking some settings on VLC player can make the 60fps MIDE-389 smooth on my budget PC, that will save me the work of re-encoding. When I have time to test it, will report.
