well, I don’t use plex or seedbox
but possible issues
- transcoding - does plex transcode ? I don’t know
does plex support mkv etc …
many dnla server don’t support mkv or iso
also is the file in a format the WD can play
transcoding will be required if it’s not in a supported format
- incomplete or locked files
seedbox torrent processes, might lock files, which will not allow the server to correctly stream it
if it is an imcomplete file, or lock for some other reason
if the file is incomplete it also probably will not play on WD
- if it’s not showing you individual files something is wrong
it could be how plex is sending it, or your not using the “ok” button to enter the folder and see the files
- resources
we’re not talking about just streaming here, if you’ve got 20 torrents running, and plex, and it’s trying to transcode, and etc … it is possible the seedbox, might not have much available in terms of resources, either network bandwidth or ram memmory, etc …
