Newb here quick two parter about streaming quality

Would like to start off by saying hi to everyone and that I LOVE SERVIIO it the bees knees . Ok I ve tried to search to my hearts content on the in tor net but cant fnd anything close to answering my question.

How come when i stream a file from laptop to my samsung 3d tv the stream can be flawless 1080p but another 1080p file stutters , pauses and skips thru the whole file . I think it has to do with containers and stuff and how its encoded but how can files from the same source vary so greatly that one is flawless and another almost unplayable .

second question is there a way to remedy this ? maybe look at the codecs and stuff used to create the flawless file and change the unplayable files to match <rencode> ?????
