Very slow seek on Fire TV
#1
I am trying to watch a 1080p mkv played over AFP off my Mac in Gotham 13.1. So far the experience is not very good, unfortunately.
Many videos stop playing after a certain point. If I seek past them I'm returned to the menu.

But the even bigger problem is that seeking is very slow. If I do a big seek of +10mins it takes about 60 seconds to complete. A 30 second skip only takes 2-3 seconds. If I load the same MKV file into VLC over the same network I can seek instantly.

I also can't seem to just jump to a time. If I type a time in that has already been played, I can jump to it. If I type in something a few minutes in the future, the video just keeps playing with no seek.

Here's a log for the jump to a time in the future bug:

What can I do?

Actually I just realized that it won't play any 1080p video past the 39 minute mark. Oh well.
