I have the same issue. I upgraded to .25 from .24 on a linux backend and
now none of my Mac frontends can play HD content. Even old recordings I
made.

Here is the output I get:

If there is no or little movement, the recording will play fine. Once
movement starts to happen, we have issues. This all played wonderfully on
.24.

I don't remember which playback profile I used on .24, but I have tried all
of them on .25 and none work correctly.

Hope someone can help,

Thanks,
Robert Birch
