Prior to the most recent update I was having issue with higher quality files playing (MKV,VOB,MP4)
Now it appears AVI files (XVID,X264,DIVX) are having this problem now, and high-quality files play fine. I can play an Bluray file (M2TS) that VLC says is 10430kb/s, … but even cartoon AVIs won’t.
What happens is the initial buffering arrow displays, then the video will begin to play… then in a few seconds it will go in frames, or play in slow motion with sound.
I am using 2 Seagate NAS’s, and I heard there may be issue with these. NAS 220 (3tb) and NAS 440 (9tb)
I am using a Netgear 24-port gigabit switch, entry-level commercial grade.
Any ideas?
I have a few WDTV’s… so I was thinking of using 2 at once… and rolling back the firmware. High-bitrate on 1, AVIs on other. But that’ll be a pain.
