When I connect to with SMB to my locally stored files on PC, if I stream files under 11ish gigs (it’s hard to find the exact filesize where the issue begins) it streams perfectly fine, but if I go above that, the video plays but it’s roughly every 10 seconds, it freezes for a few seconds then continues which really ruins the flow
and it’s not script related because I removed that equation from the process (nothing plugged in, script disabled)
To me this seems like a bitrate issue. Think of when you have a bad internet connection and you’re trying to stream a high quality YouTube video. Try going into the video formatter of choice (ffmpeg is simple if you’re comfortable with command line) and reducing the bitrate of the video you’re watching. Some videos have crazy high bitrate for no reason.
