Hi all, I am getting constant buffering on Xbox One and am at a loss on how to fix it. I’m running Plex Media Server on Windows 10 64 bit and the connection is USB 3.0 Ethernet adapter into home plug, then home plug other end into BT Home Hub 5. The Xbox is also hard wired to the hub. I have no i…

I did another test of this and am not getting the same results. While skipping around seems to work with less buffering, I ended up in a long buffer that resulted in a playback error after the same 15 mins of live TV playback. This is consistent with what I’ve experienced before. In addition, resum…

I’ve been using the new X-Box One App preview and after the latest update to it I’ve been experiencing some severe playback issues. Blu-Ray files are playing back with constant severe distortion in picture and stuttering playback, making them unwatchable. However I do not experience these playback …

I tried the preview app with live tv, I’m still seeing it buffer after 15 minutes

I also have this issue with the latest official versione of the new Plex app for Xbox One X. Constant buffering is finally fixed now, but I got occasional stutters/frame drops (usually every 10-20 seconds), and also some movies dropped back from DirectPlay to DirectStreaming with some strange scree…

I have the same problem! Live TV recovers from a buffering in the first minute, but after 15 minutes it has another buffering from which it never recovers. I can back out and start again, but the same thing happens. The pattern is consistent.

Not sure exactly what’s been fixed on the Xbox One app, But it’s been working beautifully these last few days of me using it. Stopped using it for awhile as my main device because of the buffering, Skipping frames & would only see my server as remote whilst being on the same network. All have been f…
