    Our developer has identified the issue is caused by Multithreaded Rendering option enabled. Disabling it may be a workaround for you until we get a proper fix.

    Im having the same issue with Unity iOS 2017.1

    5.6.1 has no VideoPlayer playback stutter issues.

    Switched to the latest video player to allow us to have individual video clip instances with multiple localised dialogues, something we couldn't do with the native Android video player. But this performance issue with Android devices means we might have to revert and duplicate the videos per language.

    This is causing us sever issues on a project with a client - who can't understand why previous builds worked, but now don't.

    Hoping for a fix ASAP.

    I would consider this a regression as Android video works fine in 5.6.1p1.

    My team is unable to upgrade to 5.6.3f1 due to this bug.
