Hello, iam using plex on my pc (i7-9700k 5.1ghz) with no GPU, i have like 1200/400 isp speed coming to my house also to pc wired directly to modem, the movies are in 5tb hdd seagate 3.1 usb portable drive connected to 10gig usb port to my asus z390i motherboard. Is it better to use nvme ssd that i have or is it good?, i hae remux 4k content and iam using the transcoder automatic,300buffer,slowest background transcoding, i know this doesnt make a difference, iam sharing my plex to my friend that also has 1gig internet speed(with 12900k-3080), but he says while streaming 4k content the buffer loading is terrible, and my cpu goes 100% while transcoding, and having hikups while 100 percent, but while watching 1080p with higher bitrate works just fine, how can i improve this problem any help ? Thank you.

Hey guys, I would appreciate your point of view on this one. I am building a little NAS server for our office. We do video content production, but mostly as producer, we are not editing or grading etc... So we need the storage to offload some raw footage or something that is needed for a few months and than it goes to big slow HDD into shelf. Ofc. FreeNAS, UnRaid or OMV were my first ideas, but than I realized I need also to offload to that computer. Connecting an SD reader od external drive and offload data to it, that is mostly the case. And I need to just connect HDD directly to the NAS and let it work and go so I need a GUI in my OS on that station. So the question is: Wouldn't a simple Ubuntu PC with RAID5 and SMB enabled be just fine for this case? What would actually be the advantages of a NAS OS for my case? One think I am thinking of, not sure if it works that way is, I would like to incorporate an SSD in the system so the offloading is not bottle necked by the speed of the HDD RAID, lets call it an SSD buffer, is there such a thing? Can this be done on Ubuntu? Lot of questions, I would appreciate your input guys. What do you think?

Hello everyone, So some my local video files that I have on my PC buffer when I play them. If I want to skip the video forward I need to wait from seconds to minutes before the video skips and starts playing again. If I'm correct this only happens with videos that I've rendered recently with Vegas Pro 15 (all older rendered, recorded or any type of videos work perfectly, only new rendered videos with vegas pro buffer). Doesn't matter how long the video is, it buffers if I want to skip it. This just randomly started to happen out of nowhere. So only recently rendered short and longer videos buffer. I've tried to play the videos on different HDDs and SSDs, with VLC and with Windows video player, in different browsers, but still same results. Checked drive health status and it's okay also.

We have the attached network diagram The mobile browser (TCP receiver) wants to download a webpage from a server hosting example.com Packet loss can only happen when the queue on the Wi-Fi router overflows (> 100 packets). The link speeds are in Mega bits per second, where 1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bits per second. Also, assume that the Wi-Fi router adds no hop delay or queuing delay (no matter the queue size). We consider the size of each data packet to be 1,500 bytes. Furthermore, assume that each packet can carry 1,500 bytes of TCP payload. For example, the sender would need 2 packets to transmit a webpage of 3 KB (3,000 bytes) to the receiver. The sender uses the following slow start mechanism which proceeds in time intervals of the RTT: (i) In the first RTT interval, the sender’s initial cwnd is equal to 2 packets. The sender bursts these 2 packets and receives corresponding 2 ACKs from the receiver. (ii) For each subsequent RTT interval, the sender increases the cwnd by 1 packet for every ACK it receives during the previous RTT interval. (iii) The receiver always sends 1 ACK for each packet received from the sender. This means that, the sender would effectively double its cwnd in each subsequent RTT interval. (iv) The sender would exit the slow start and switch to congestion avoidance if/when it detects the first packet loss. Can someone please help me understand in which RTT will the queue in the WiFi router start building up (queue size greater than 0)? In RTT #1, the sender sends 2 packets and receives 2 ACKs. Further, In which RTT will the first packet drop occur at the WiFi router? -
Hi so I have a really annoying problem with my PC in my room. My PC has a 4 bar excellent signal strength but when it comes to watching YouTube videos, going on skype and playing games it's awful... but only sometimes. You see some days it works fine and some days it is REALLY bad! My ping on my games sometimes goes to 700! All my other devices in my room work perfectly fine. I cant move my PC downstairs because my Dad is using that area as his office. I am not able to move my Internet Router because it has this white cable coming out the wall and into the router so it can only be in 1 place, but my bedroom is right above where the router is so there shouldn't be a problem. I am using a wireless Bluetooth Internet Adapter with 300mbs. I'm not sure if its the rest of my family clogging up the internet or what. It just doesn't make sense how I can have 4 bars but awful internet Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.

Like the title says, does anyone know a way to increase the size of the cache/buffer in Windows of the Disk Write Cache? I assume it is some generic % based on your quantity of RAM in the system, but I would like to increase the seize of this. Mostly for transferring larger files over my local network. The systems have plenty of RAM, and more can be acquired if need be. I have looked in a lot of places, and I can't find any info on how to increase the size in a way that actually works. -
im a little computer stupid so i need help with this problem and i will try to put all my specs. processor- i7-7700k ram- 16.0 GB Radeon RX 480 Graphics i have 90 up and 90 down internet speed im using a VG245H gaming monitor as my main monitor but just a small T.V as my second display. when ever i try to play a game and watch twitch, youtube, or any type of video it lags, buffers, and sometimes just freezes. is it because of the 2 different displays? -
Hello community, My oneplus 6 (android 8.1 oxygen os 5.1.11) has constant buffering issues with Netflix. My connection isn't slow and I can watch YouTube all day, only Netflix won't do it. On my ps3 there is no problem with it but my phone. Any ideas? I have tried restart (app, phone), reinstall and I have also emptied the cache Thanks

Hi! I'm coding a c++ web server, and I'm looking to use, among others, the quote unquote tag "/%CurrDir%" to print out the current directory path to the document. But that's not easy. I decided to do it and thought, meh, I'll just replace it. But I completely forgot buffers have a specific length, and if the path name has more than 10 characters, it'll overflow, less leave empty space, so I can't just straight up replace it. Now. I thought of two possible ways I can do this. 1. Create a temporary file that's a copy of the one I'm sending, with a name that has something to do with the current socket so it doesn't get over-written, in which I can freely replace things and then freely send it in chunks without having to worry with replacing. Disadvantages: - Possible storage bottleneck and all around unoptimized use. - More action will happen on the storage side of things. So basically, faster for fewer clients, slower for more. 2. Doing it all with c++, complicated calculations. Disadvantages: - Will take up quite a lot more processing time. - Will be way harder to code(not that that's an issue). - Will take up a lot more memory due to the need of usage of other more forward buffers to readjust loss from some or change from the intermediary ones. Slower for everyone, but completely scalable hardware-wise. I'd choose 2 in a whim just because it can be improved in the future and because it's scalable, but I'm not sure these are the only ways it can be done, so, if you have any other way of doing this, I'd be happy to know. Thank you.

I don't understand this. I'm using an ethernet cable to my PC and all the speed-tests from various sites consistently gives me no less than 50Mbps download and 17Mbps upload. Yet, when i go to watch a Youtube video, it often buffers even at 480P... I've tried a Mac downstairs that's also reporting the exact same speed across several speed-testing programs and also has buffering issues. I'm also experiencing buffering at 720P over Wifi when trying to stream BBC Iplayer to our Free-view player on the TV. Why is this!? Result: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5385675350

So this was going for a few days now,my youtube is so slow that it cant even play 240p videos straight with no pause,and whenever i play a video from youtube the maximum bandwidth is only 0.3 Mbps while if i download it reaches its peak. any suggestions on how to fix this?

Does FPS represent how many frames are being sent from the primary buffer a second or is it a total of FPS produced in the other frame buffer (secondary frame buffer) as well as the primary frame buffer ?

Anyone else having issues with the vessel videos not loading , loading slow , or not loading in full quality .? If so did you fix it and how
-
This might just be me, but I wanted to double check with you guys first. I signed up for Vessel, mostly just to get the one year of free "premium tier" streaming, and would honestly consider paying the $3 a month after that period is over if this improves, but honestly, it's a mess. Setting aside the fact that you can't middle click links to open them in a new tab like you can on youtube, and the fact that it's comment system is horrendous, it's nearly impossible to watch a complete video straight through! I can stream 1080p60fps on youtube without a single buffer, yet I need to pause every Vessel video every ten seconds or so to let it buffer, and for an average 10 minute video, the player will simply stop loading new video 3-5 times, meaning I have to figure out exactly where I am in the video, refresh the page, and then jump to that time, multiple times, just to watch an LTT video! I'm hoping that this is one of two things, either just a bad connection to my location, or just a part of the growing pains involved in offering a new streaming site, either way, I'm hoping you here in the LTT community can shed some light on the matter. Thanks in advance!

I recently read this thread: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/54674-youtube-videos-will-not-load/ It reminded me of a problem I have been having for a while now with YouTube and its videos not loading completely. The reason it started a new topic is because i'm not entirely sure if i have the exact same problem as the above thread... Anyway, when watching a YouTube video (any one) it won't load the whole video, but instead load a small part of it. Example: Is my ISP doing this? My Internet Connection: Down: 4.5mbps Up: 0.5mbps Ping: ~60ms Type: ADSL ISP: Telecom NZ Thanks for any help!

hello everyone, Since this sunday it was impossible for me to watch a whole youtube video, because of it buffering or not even loading. I even changed from Chrome to Maxthon and before that I deleted my whole cache deiinstalled and reinstalled the flash player, but it still won't work. It works just fine on my phone, but on my pc it won't even play 360p right and when I set it to 720p it won't even load. Could this be an issue of my graphics card driver?

Okay, so. I've had a huge problem with YouTube buffering for the longest time. I have about a 30 megabit download speed, and yet had problems buffering videos at 1080p on YouTube, so I would always have to switch it down to 720p or 480p. I thought it was strange because I had absolutely no problems buffering Netflix. So I was beginning to suspect that my ISP has been throttling my internet whenever I used YouTube. I've tried a bunch of different tricks and nothing seemed to work. But whenever I used a proxy, YouTube loaded perfectly. So this is where Hotspot shield came in. I installed it and bought a year membership when I was watching one of the livestreams. I decided I would get this so I could easily set up a vpn, and secure my connection at the same time. But I thought about how YouTube would work with it; frankly it works wonderfully! I'm not sure how well it works with the basic package, but I can definitely watch 1080p on YouTube without having it buffer or lowering the quality. So this is a heads up to anyone that has a decent connection, but you feel like your ISP is throttling you in certain aspects. ALSO, it lets you access sites that would otherwise be blocked on work or school wifi. So there you go, I would definitely recommend this to everybody. I hope someone from Hotspot Shield will see this, and see that they are actually gaining revenue from sponsoring Linus.
