I have a Blu-ray ISO, that I try to playback via FTP on my local network (FTP server in house).
The video is stopping on eath 30-60 sec. to buffer up, and then starts again. The CPU load is 98-100% on my RPI (last Milhouse build).
If I connect via SMB to the same local server, playback works fine, and the CPU load is about 50%.
Is ther a setting, that I have overlooked, when using FTP ??
I have tryed many settings for the video buffering, but no one works for me.
The problem is only when I playback Blu-ray via FTP.
Best regards
Is this a 256MB or 512MB Pi? The default <cachemembuffersize> is now 2MB on 256MB Pis, and 20MB on 512MB Pis.
Is the FTP-buffering behaviour the same with omxplayer and dvdplayer?
Can you go back through older builds until you find a version which doesn't buffer over FTP? Do you get the same behaviour with stock builds?
It's a 512MB Pi running 1GHz.
I only use omplayer, as it only runs for all my contet.
I'll try older versions tomorow, but it's a new thing, that I was trying to play Blu-ray via FTP. Have not tryed it before. Only used FTP to playback SD, until yet.
But it look strange that the FTP protocol use 50% more CPU than the SMB.
I have allso tryed to test my FTP server localy, at I can pull 10 times more bandwith from it, than the Pi playback via FTP use. So it's not my FTP server that have a problem.
I have allso tryed to set cachemembuffering to 50MB, but no luck. Still 98-100% CPU load on Blu-ray playback.
