OpenPHT 1.6.2 Embedded - Buffer size limited to only 100MB.

Hi guys,

I hope this is the right section to ask this question.

I’m running a Chromebox with OpenPHT 1.6.2 Embedded on it. In the settings I’ve specified the buffer size to the maximum of 30%. When I play something, it will only buffer up to 100MB, which is not anywhere near 30% of the file size. I’ve tried Plex Media Player and specified the buffer size to 500MB, which it was able to fill with no issue.

So what do I need to do to get OpenPHT to buffer more than 100MB?

Many thanks,

Charles

See this post, it’s in the Rasplex section but both OpenPHT and Rasplex are the same code base.

Hi NedtheNerd,

Thank you for the link. Unfortunately this did not successfully increase the buffer size. It is still limited to around ~100MB, even though I specified it to be 600MB.

I created advancedsettings.xml and added the following lines to it:

<advancedsettings>
   <network>
     <buffermode>1</buffermode>
     <cachemembuffersize> 629145600 </cachemembuffersize>
     <readbufferfactor>20</readbufferfactor>
   </network>
 </advancedsettings>

I also gave it 777 permission to be sure that could not be an issue.

Could I be making a mistake somewhere?
