haven’t seen that thread… the movie specs themselves don’t seem spectacular – so that on its own shouldn’t cause much trouble.

Agreed, and I have watched the movie half a dozen times, this is the first time I am experiencing something like this.

I am having the same issue on Roku. See my thread - Long API Call delaying movie playback
