Most videos I watch on my HTPC through Plex Media Player randomly freeze for a few seconds while the Audio carries on… The video will then skip ahead and sync up with the uninterrupted audio.
This happens on most movies and longer TV shows. I can hear a click and hum from the Windows NAS in the corner that stores the files. The hard drives test out as healthy.
Please help, I have included the log. this happened while watching Rampage right at 15:40. I stopped playback and shut down the server immediately after it synced back up.
The only thing in the logs that jump out at me are this warning, but I don’t know what it means.
