Hey all,
I recently moved and as part of the move, I revamped/enhanced by XBMC setup. I've now got two XBMCs setup, sharing through MySQL. The house is wired via MoCA, so the transfer speeds are much improved over WiFi. Everything is working OK except I've come up against a strange issue.
Problem: While watching my MKV Blu-Ray rip of Super (2010), I get extreme buffering issues during the opening title sequence only (4:00 to 6:00 or so)
Details:
- Outside of the title sequence (4:00 - 6:00 approx.), the file plays just fine.
- All other large movie 1080p movie files I've played seem to work just fine.
- I'm streaming the file from a Drobo FS over MoCA
- I have a Mac and a PC setup. Both are reflecting the same issue (the Mac is much more powerful).
- When I play the file locally, it plays just fine.
- When I copy the file from the Drobo FS to my desktop it takes only about 30-40 minutes.
So, given all of those details... I'm left scratching my head a bit. Thoughts are most welcome.
