    There is a 1.9.x out maybe that will fix your problem?
    Have you downgraded to confirm?

    Same issue here. Will check if the update resolves the issue.

    Same here too, very weird.

    Hardware definitely not an issue, network, I have a VPN so maybe it's measuring against that (which sits atop a 200/20mbps connection)?

    EDIT:
    1.9.4252 doesn't appear to fix this. It's almost as though the Web Player (running on the PMS localhost) is being bound by the "Internet"/External rules rather than direct play.

    Bump - Anyone else having this issue? Running 1.9.2.4285 - still causing anything locally onthe LAN to be "limited" to the bandwidth setting for Remote streams

    POSSIBLE FIX: In Settings (Advanced) -> Network -> LAN Networks, I had a list of IPs but I hadn't added 127.0.0.1 (which is the local host, or same machine that the server is on... I use the Web Player).

    Since settinng this to match my List of IPs that do not require Auth... the issue seems to be resolved.
    I'll report back in a few days if I have no other issues.

    Feel free to try it out and see if it helps you.

    FIXED: My previous post is still holding, so looks like that's the fix. Not sure why it suddenly changed but happy to have it resolved. Hope it helps someone else.
