Can you please try VLC? Kodi is very "heavy" app, maybe VLC is liter and works better

vlc is irrelevant. The point is after update android 12, x.265 became extremely choppy which didn't happen before. Either there is something wrong in hardware acceleration in android 12 or some bug in update. H.264 is still playing very smoothly.

VLC offers only stereo sound at least on our chromecast.

Still, Truesarang, please let me know about your DLNA software on PC.

kodi is installed on server pc, using smb connected through router to ccwgtv with ethernet cable which is connected on smart tv. Bandwidth is around 246 Mbps so more than enough for 1080p content

So, you are using Kodi client on Chromecast and Kodi as DLNA server on PC. Is that correct?

and what's ums got to do with x265 stutter in chromecast with google tv?

Re: Chromecast with google tv 4k stutter playing x.265 file via kodi after android 12 update

It is related to x.265 decoding. If it is being done on your PC, then KODI (player) doesn't have to decode the file. I don't know if KODI has any decoders implemented.

Whereas UMC has.

Anyway I see unstability in KODI functionig on Chromecast. After the last update i can not play video files using KODI. It as a problem with reading media serwer data on my PC (wired LAN).

the issue comes from UMS. It uses connection strings to detect the used client and selects profiles which show the features of the client. With updaet from ATV10 to 12, the linux kernel changed and the string is no different and UMS thinks you use the old Chromecast without any HEVC acceleration.

In Windows 7, 8.1, 10 you can use a build in DLNA server in network options in control panel:
