Anybody figure out what the best video file size is for streaming? i have a 7GB 1080p file that i uploaded to aws and can only get fluid play at 1.5MB/480p - thoughts?
Plex Cloud will depend mainly on your internet download speed. If you have a slow download speed then yes a lower bitrate will be recommended
BD-RIPs play fine for me using DIRECTPLAY from Plex Cloud
Example:
Media:
Video Resolution 1080p
Duration 2:09:13
Bitrate 33731 kbps
Width 1920
Height 1080
Aspect Ratio 1.78
Container MKV
Video Frame Rate 24p

Personally I have 30/5MB should be pretty good. Just be great to get some input from users to maximize our viewing experience!
@hthighway what’s you bandwidth?
