K. So I’m cruise around the Hawaiian island and the plex server is in Texas the bite rate suck on cruise ship BUT it does login to plex when I go to watch Firefly series it just sits there never starts playing is there anything I can do to make it play reduce the pixels or what I’m just asking the plex gurus.
You should be able to reduce the resolution/quality in the playback settings of your client.
In Plex Web
Cruise ships and hotels are known to have horrible connections – or at least their bandwidth will highly depend on current load, therefore probably fluctuating a lot.
Keep in mind… when you barely connect to your server, the data transferred is text and a few tiny pictures – that’s nothing compared to even low-quality streaming.
This is a situation where plex’s download feature works best. Download stuff ahead of time, or overnight
Ya that would work if I planned on have poor bandwidth. I thought the LAX Doubletree would have good bandwidth they didn’t have crap either so then I thought I would have better on the cruise ship. WOW it’s worse than the Doubletree. Now sitting at the Maui Ocean Center and they’re Wifi stinks too.
