Well, running the server on wifi is never a good idea even if it’s the only option you have available. It would be most unfortunately if it is your only option. You will probably find many slow hiccups.
I have just gotten a Netgear nighthawk x10 would running my server on this help my problems?
Thanks I have figured as much but I was assuming my wifi should be able to handle the server.
hello??
Hello.
so i have updated to a lan server. i am using a nighthawk x10 router as my server but the load time for the library is awhile how can i fix this?
Well, are video playing better now? That was the original issue you posted about.
As far as “library” – do you mean it takes a long time for the cover art to show up? Or to navigate around the library?
Once you click on a movie does the details page show up quickly enough?

yes, as in desperately chugging, struggling to move, like hauling a freight train uphill - by yourself - Russian Strong-Man Style.

that part is fine - the part about the overloaded overhead (Movie Reviews, line after line after line of irremovable Hub after Hub after Hub) grinding things down to a screeching halt is what we’re talking about.

if it chugs and spits on my GAMING RIG (AMD FX-8350/AMD Radeon R9 380) just think of the wondrous effect I’m enjoying on my Roku. To be honest, it’s not that wondrous.
Yes the cover art or the movies and TV shows at all it takes along time. But when it does it works good.
Basically loading up Plex from opening the app takes awhile now when before when I was using a wifi server it loaded fast but the playback was bad now it’s the opposite
You have a Vizio?
Do you have any other Plex client you can test with? If this is happening across more than your TV then it might mean you have a corrupted database.

yes and i have a vizio but its slow across all devices
Then as I said:
Would deleting my server and restarting work?
Honestly, I don’t know…
Wow thanks
I mean, you can always try…

You could as a test move your db to your desktop(exit plex first!) then launch plex back up recreate a few libraries and add media paths to see the speed. If the speed has increased and you are satisfied then you/me/all may conclude the db is bad.
