I redently upgraded my Tv with a Qled 4k.
Switching to 4k from full hd was harder than expected:
I used to have my Synology NAS configured with samba shared folder, I know, that's bad and open a hole in my network...anyway, when I try to strem a movie, depending on the bitrate (I presume) the minx+kodi 18.6 frequently stop to buffer data
Yesterday I got rid of SMB and enable NFS permissions on all of my shared folder: Very big files, 4K HDR, with high bitrate played without any problem ! It was fantastic !
But... anytime I try to skip forward a little bit, or go back in the movie, kodi hangs, and it takes a loooong time to resume playback: to go forward 5 minutes it took 6 minutes of wait ! And when I tried to resume a movie paused at minute 45, it never started.....
Did I do something wrong ? do you have same issue ? What kind of shares do you use, SMB of NFS ?
