Playback studdering issue with DTS content doesn't seem to be related to transcoding

Server Version#: Qnap Plex Server 1.42.2
Player Version#: Both Apple TV and LG WebOS Both up to date as of 4-30-26

Studdering issue when replaying DTS content. CPU Utilization on QNAP Server never topped 24% and hovered mostly in the 5-10% Range CPU is i3-8100T w/ 16GB Ram

Neither LG nor apple have native DTS support.

If it’s not running out of CPU, what’s causing the issue?

I have a Hisense U8 that doestn’ have any problems. The only thing I can assume is that the Hisense has the full DTS decoder.

How can I fix my issue if I can’t identify the server running out of resources? Are there settings I need to address?
