My issues is that on different films it plays some of it 3-5 minutes of the film before buffering and then loosing connection. This only happens on a couple of films. I can play the films fine directly from my PC but if I stream via any interface it freezes at the same point.
I am running Plex with the following Spec:
X5670 12 cores allocated
1GB Memory
1 Gbit/s connection
1TB spinning rust
Ive had a look through the logs and this is all I can see is happening.
