Stuttering/buffering for PS4 only

Hello, I have 2 * PS4s (one wi-fi, one ethernet) which stutters consistently whilst remote playing between 10mbps-original quality. When I switch to the Chromecast or the Web player, there are no issues at all. The client internet bandwidth is 300/30mbps, the server is 100/100mbps.

Any assistance would be much appreciated!

The following is my PS4 profile:
`<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

`

Having the same issue.

Very strange, it used to work flawlessly until recently. I sometimes switch to the PS4 because certain media on the Chromecast has weird jittering (especially during panning scenes) because of what I assume is TV refresh rate incompatibilities (in the UK).

Ps4 has been a very unreliable plex client for me.

did you verify if the PMS server was transcoding the media ?

According to Plexpy, it was transcoding the video and copying the audio at ‘Original’ quality. According to the screenshot, it looks like it downscaled the video slightly?

Playstation 4 (stuttering, ethernet&wifi):

Chromecast (no stuttering, wifi):

it appears that it was transcoding the audio and the video.
Transcoding audio doesnt require that much cpu, but it is the contrary for video.

on what device is PMs installed ?

Ubuntu 14, the issue is intermittent and works fine on other devices. Only recently has the PS4 been choppy. According to Plexpy, transcoding speeds are usually 3-4x and a lot of the time gets throttled.
