For a while now I have noticed an issue watching shows on my Apple TV Plex app from my pleas server on my DS918+. Sometimes the playback gets very stuttery. Especially when there is lots of movement. I have converted some to M4V format which seems to be better. The DS has hardware video decoding which Plex says it supports so I do t know what is wrong. Any thought?
