High bitrate movies cause buffering. LAN & WAN

High bitrate movies cause buffering. LAN & WAN

Plex server;Physical 2x10core low power xeon, 96gb ram, GTX1080
Storage server; virtual 2 core, 8gb ram, vhdx’s on storagespaces
Client; ATV4K, cabled

Speedtests:
Filecopy; Fileserver -> Plex server filecopy = 500 MB/s
Filecopy; Plex server -> Client on same switch as ATV4K = 11,3 MB/s
Speedtest.net; ATV4K = 900/850mbit (how else to test ATV4K speed?)

Everything is Direct Play
Both Plex app and Infuse has same behaviour

In the debuglog in console it states Buffered time wich when it reaches 0 caused the client to pause until Buffered time again reaches around 20 sec.

FileExample:
Container: MKV
Format: HEVC 4K HDR
Audio TrueHD 5.1
Bitrate 53,2mbit

Can someone help me how to dig deeper into troubleshooting?
