Does "Direct Play" send the device a buffer similar to transcodes?

Im looking at some activity on my server and I am seeing the things that are being Direct Played dont appear to have a “buffer”. In the event of network congestion these streams look like they have a higher likelihood of buffering on the client since the data is in real time. Could the Plex folks make that experience a little better and more resilient in these cases?

Normally the direct play buffer is on the client side not server, and that is why plex wont see it.
