Hi everyone,
I'm currently set up with Plex Media Server running on an Nvidia Shield. The Shield has the TrueNAS SMB share mounted on it.
Plex is accessing the library hosted on TrueNAS. No problem there.
I notice some performance issues when it comes to playing back files on Plex from TrueNAS.
Here are my observations :
- When Plex isn't using TrueNAS for a while (let's say 24h) and you want to play a movie, plex playback is very slow. The movie keeps buffering forever
- When I reboot TrueNAS, then the plex playback is extremely smooth with absolutely no buffering issue.
Any idea what could cause this and how it could be resolved?
Rebooting the NAS each time I want to play back isn't extremely convenient
Thanks!
