compressed 4K .mp4 and .ts files play fine within Preview Pane .
uncompressed 4K .mov ( high bitrate ) , cause an insta-crash , when Preview Pane tries playing them.
tested on newest vanilla XYx64.

PS.: is Video Playback only possible via Preview Pane ? the Floating Preview shows only Thumbnail of the Video , correct?

1) Do you have a link to one of them?

2) It's possible via WMP. Currently no time to check how to force MOV to be previewed by WMP but there should be a way.

its from a Video Creation Assets Pack (Bigfilms) . Attached is the Codec info .

there are samples on https://kodi.wiki/view/Samples
i tried some HQ clips from that site, all play fine.

its just this particular codec

These are many samples. Which one crashes?

i meant the ones that crash are from the commercial bigfilm assets packs ... via https://kodi.wiki/view/Samples i tried to provide a similar codec , but there are no exact matches

Okay. Without a way to see the crash here I can't do anything.

seems a rather rare format mostly used in professional video editing .
WMP as preview handler plays it fine , though i prefer the native XY player.
I have K-Lite installed.

here is a sample file of such a ProRes format if you want to try and make it playable , id cerainly be grateful

currently it just crashes the app if played with native Preview Handler

Tried it, no problems. Plays fine with XY's native viewer in 32-bit and 64-bit. AFAIK I just use K-Lite as well.

When I play it, LAV stuff is loaded in the background, hidden in systray (the two windows below are shown when clicking the icons).

dang , thx for the info , but still cant understand why WMP would play it back tough

THX for pointing me towards LAV Decoder ,,, i had to DISABLE 16bit Y416 Output to make it playable

I guess you tried every box? And that was almost the last one?

nah , i was stuck with Hardware Decoder , just before giving up i tried doing 8bit only and voila it worked and i know 444 = highres )
