Strange video "stuttering"

Hello,

I have a strange video problem, and it’s been present for quite a while.

I am using Android Blynk Beta APP version 2.28.17

I have a video streaming widget in my project, pointing to a URL which is being served by mjpg_streamer. The webcam is a modest 320x240 30fps stream.

When I view the stream URL in Chrome on my Android phone, it is just fine.

But when viewed in the video widget in Blynk, there is a strange stuttering.

It will pause for about 1 second (with the spining ‘loading’ circle), and then run for 1 second, but at 2x speed. The webcam is watching my garage door, so that’s why I know it is running at 2x speed for a moment (the door moves very fast during the playing). There doesn’t appear to be any missing or skipped video frames, just the strange timing.

I have done a screen recording here: https://imgur.com/a/DjDdxO3

Anyone have an idea what might be going on?
