ng4ever 39 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) Yes the movie file is pretty big but it is high quality blu ray of 80 GB with 2 hour and 30 mins to 3 hour movie. This is on AT&T Elite tier in the US. Even out and about at one location with 150 Mbps to 200 Mbps + 4g lte speed it still buffers. I don't get it. Yes Steam saver is off. Just to make sure you all understand no it is not through Emby. It is just directly playing from my media server over WebDAV HTTPs if that matters. With a iPhone on nPlayer Plus and even tried Infuse Pro app. Is it just the nature of the beast of cellular data technology ? Hope not. I am not moving when it happens. Sorry almost forgot to say I am on AT&T Fiber 1 Gbps down and 1 Gbps up connection too at home where media server is directly.

Luke 37051 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Both. It could happen on either side or both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ng4ever 39 Posted May 15, 2022 Author Share Posted May 15, 2022 Just now, Luke said: Both. It could happen on either side or both sides. Ok thanks. Will try tonight when AT&T cellular wireless data line is fastest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ng4ever 39 Posted May 15, 2022 Author Share Posted May 15, 2022 Stupid question should I use a vpn on both connections at the same time or no ? Also does it matter which vpn service ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also does it matter which vpn service ? I would think it would be worse threw a service. But the odds of sustained throughput with a bitrate that high is going to be pretty slime across the internet. This is one reason no online provider provides streams that high. Just like I have an online server that has a gigabit connection and a home connection that has a download of 200Mbps but will not get higher then about 55Mbps downloading from that online server. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but that sucks So you don't think it is throttling you are saying ? Just the nature of the beast ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ng4ever 39 Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) @Happy2Play What streaming service do you think offers the highest streams file sizes and how large ? Edited May 16, 2022 by ng4ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14910 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I think the current industry standard is about 20Mb/s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
