Some feedback regarding the SMB fix (with seems to help a lot with the known bad SMB performance) in #0115:
- since you changed the checksize I'm able to play blurays with high bitrate without stuttering via a direct 100 mbit connection (HPProliant Gen10 server running libreelec 8.2.2 as smb server -> switch -> raspberryPi2 with increased read buffer settings in advancedsettings.xml). Great! Before that, there was constant stuttering every 20-30 seconds (esp. 3D ISO blurays/high bitrate)
- But the larger chunks also lead to a slow initial reading of the bluray (so it takes approx. 2 minutes to start a bluray - which I think is logical as small R/W cycles are slowed down by large chunks). Question: is it possible to open the smb connection with small chunk size for reading the iso file structure and then reinstantate the smb connection with the correct (large) check size so highbit media plays flawlessly via smb?
If not, please keep the large size as I searched like crazy to find out why a wired 100mbit connection cannot play 40mbit/s media w/o stuttering (recommended solution is to change to nfs btw)
cheers
