Excessive buffering
Hi all,
Firstly I'd like to say that Serviio is a great product.
I have purchased a new LG OLED65B8 and of course I'm excited to stream some 4k material, however I seem to have excessive video buffering.
I've been searching this forum and have found some interesting threads which have helped me troubleshoot but I am still at a loss.
My config:
HP Microserver Gen8
Upgraded CPU to E3-1265L V2
16GB RAM
Dual NIC
Server 2012R2 installed on SSD
Movie/TV repo reside on a RAID 5 array
I am not seeing any evidence of CPU or RAM bottlenecks.
I have bound the Serviio service to the secondary NIC and it has exclusive access. The TV is connected to the same 1GB switch as the server.
So far I have tried
Set the LG profile
Disabling subtitles
Changing the order or audio tracks - DTS first, TrueHD second
Remove TrueHD track all together
Disabled transcoding
Setting all 8 CPU threads to transcoding
I have even directly connected the TV ethernet into the server, manually setting IP addresses. The TV seems to only connect at 100mbps, not the 1gbps that I'd expect.
I have enabled debug logging on Serviio, but can't say that the log is giving me much to work with.
Thoughts?!
Cheers,
Dan
