Hi
I'm pretty new in this raspberry pi section (got mine (pi 2) two weeks ago) but I have a huge problem.
I am currently running a simple setup with a 1tb Harddrive and nothing more. It is connected via USB to the pi and I can play every movie or song in full HD without any problems.
But every once in a while the movie stops playing (looks like a pause or something like this).
I started searching for a problem resolution, but the only thing I was able to find was something with a too small cache (?) and buffering issues.
I checked the buffering at the points where the movies generally stop playing and discovered, that the bar is loading increadibly slow.
But I can watch the first hour or so perfectly smooth without any issues. The problem happen (most of the time) at 2/3 of the playing time.
I have absolutely no idea how to fix this annoing stuff.
When I skip the part (where it is having the problems) it runns smooth and after a few minutes it starts againg with this annoying pauses and sound issues.
The video files are okay (my pc has no problems playing them).
Do you guys have any suggestions what I can try to fix this?
Or do you need any further information (I hope I can answer the questions)...
Hopefully someone can help me
And sorry for my terrible englisch hehe
