Impossible to skip forward or backward in mkv 720p from NAS
#1
Hi all,

I am using Kodi 16 on my windows 10 (the same problem appears Kodi 17 beta, and also on Kodi 16.1 on my Raspeberry pi 3)

When I try to skip forward or backward on a big video file (for instance a 4Go mkv 720p) from my NAS, the skip is either very long (for 5minutes skip forward, it takes about 30seconds), of even does not work at all, with a freeze of kodi.
But the playing is perfectly fine.

If i copy the file in local, then the skip works ok.

If i do the same from VLC, from the same NAS, the skip works perfectly.
So there is something with Kodi, buffering, or something like this.


Do you have any idea how to improve the situation ?

I have a decent local network speed (measured 6MB/s - 50Mb/s)

Thanks in advance !


Sorry for my bad english.

Very strange : i found out that it does not appear when i play from a SMB mount, but only from a UPNP mount, for the same video...
