Hello experts.
I'm having choppy playback and sometimes buffering when playing full bluray (folder structure) over NFS. Trying to fix that, i was fiddling with the <network> settings in advancedsettings.xml, but whatever i did, there was no change. I could see that even though i added more memory to the buffer with <cachemembuffersize> the amount of available memory while playing did not change. After a while i tried to play the .m2ts directly instead, and at once i saw the cache memory was used and the video played without any problems. This leads me to believe that <buffermode>1</buffermode> option does not include blurays played through the bluray menu.
So my question is to You experts out there: Is my analysis correct and if so, can I make Kodi buffer blurays played through the menu, and is this behavior intentional or a bug?
Some facts about my system:
Intel NUC DN2820FYKH with 2GB memory
Openelec 5.0 (Kodi 14 stable)
I'm using no local storage and boot from my Synology NAS with pxe.
Wired Gb network.
My current network settings in advancedsettings.xml: (plays the .m2ts file perfectly, but not the full bluray)
<network>
<buffermode>1</buffermode>
<cachemembuffersize>157286400</cachemembuffersize>
<readbufferfactor>20</readbufferfactor>
</network>
I'm posting here and not on the openelec forum as i think this probably is a Kodi issue.
Thanks for reading!
