Hello all-
I'm experiencing video stutter - video pauses for 4 or 5 seconds then races to catch up - using Kodi on a Mac Mini while viewing video files hosted on my FreeNAS drive. I'm not posting here because I necessarily think this is a problem with my FreeNAS server, I'm just starting here because the people on this forum tend to be smarter and more well-informed than the other places I could seek help.
The question is: How do I find the source of the stutter? Something wrong with my Mac Mini, Kodi software needing to be reconfigured, or something wrong with my network configuration.
Specs:
Mac mini (mid 2010) 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4GB DDR3
macOS 10.13.16 High Sierra
Kodi 17.6
FreeNAS 11.2
Supermicro X10SLL-F
i3-4170 3.7GHz
16GB ECC
smb share to my Mac Mini
