So I am having an issue with Plex buffering on my Unraid server. Seems to be at all qualities, transcoded or direct play. It is to the point you can’t watch anything. I haven’t had to troubleshoot Plex much so I need some help. Posting here because it is a mix of plex, Unraid and all the jazz.

Unraid Specs Dell R520 E xx70 v2 CPUs (20 cores) 96 GB Ram Nvidia 1650 GPU for transcoding 750 gig cache 7 disk array of various size hdds

Streaming Stick Fire tv 4K “stick” On 5GHz Wi-Fi two rooms away. Access point is a TP link disk style something or another.

Current stream is below however I have seen it on multiple episodes, movies doesn’t matter much Container MKV Format H264 Audio EAC 5.1 Player ExoPlayer

I have played around with settings on plex and nothing seems to change. I can upscale downscale or direct play and all produce the same issues. It is driving me up a wall so all information is appreciated. Ask me for any settings or pics and I will get them ASAP!

    Is it only on your Firestick? Does this happen on all WiFi clients? Does it happen on hardwired clients?
