Ben1992 1 Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Emby server running on macmini with portable harddrive attached to store live TV recordings. Recently I have noticed that randomly through viewing a show, it will buffer to the point where it's just unwatchable. I expect it to buffer when I skip through the commercials Or if there is pixelation from the TV antenna but it buffers at random times through the episodes. I took a episode I was having problems viewing and added the file from the portable harddrive to my Nas and the episode played just fine. This issue has only recently started happening within the past few months. Has anyone else had this problem and any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37058 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 @Ben1992 Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben1992 1 Posted November 6, 2022 Author Share Posted November 6, 2022 After testing multiple external harddrives, I ended up just biting the bullet and having emby store the live tv recordings on my NAS and it's 100% better. Emby barely even buffers when I fast-forward through commercials. Should have just set it up this way from the get go. So I'm just going to leave it like this. Thanks for the reply though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
