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!
I use it on my prodmox server. Currently I think I have 5 VMs on it. Currently pihole, docker and three in a k3s cluster.
