Here's the mediainfo output for one of the movies with a problem, but I'm also now seeing the same problem with the Linux zoom client where the entire computer becomes sluggish and unusable. https://pastebin.com/7rxunmYu This happens when playing through Kodi or vlc. > Did 4k the sluggish 4K videos play smoothly in the past?. Yes. This happened after a fc37 to fc38 upgrade some weeks ago. I've also installed all the latest updates since. Sorry I didn't mention this sooner, ugh. Thanks, Alex
