Video playback troubles (Honeycomb / Galaxy tab 10.1 / AIR 3.6)

Hi,

I've just developed an AIR app playing H.264 mp4 videos on the GT-P7510 / Android 3.1 and have been running in lots of troubles :

- Performance is not good. Playback was jerky even with relatively low res 1200x672 videos. I had to reduce quality to get something acceptable (~2500Kbits).

I was very confused to get the exact same results with StageVideo even reporting using hardware playback (so I sticked with normal Video object).

- No matter what I tried I can sometimes get a frame of the previously played video at the beginning of a new one. I can also get an old frame (last keyframe ?) of the current video at the end of the playback.

Not nice.

- Using the sleep button during video playback was causing display troubles when getting back to the app. Typically standard display objects were not showing anymore. Only video (hardware playback using Video object anyway ?).

Sometimes I got crashes too.

I somewhat managed to work around this with the deactivate/activate event, a timer and a stage.displayState change.

- The app was supposed to be played on a big TV screen in a show (starting today) using the HDMI adapter. Unfortunalty when using this HDMI output the video is not showing up (not even on the tablet...).

I'm still looking urgently for a solution to this problem.

Any suggestion welcome.
