* Note:
Despite hardware capability of running 60fps video, playback frame rate is limited to 30 fps and bit rate limited to 20Mbps (constant or variable up to) to support smooth gapless video.
Videos playing at 60fps will be skipped during the playback.
Video with higher than 20Mbps might have blinking issue during videos transition
Variable FPS is not supported
There is also further limitation for gapless playback
Audio should have same FPS and duration as video
