Pain 13 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I used to be able to stream 4K from my Nvidia shield to my Roku ultra 4K with Plex. With emby it just buffers and extremely chopping and unplayable. How can I force direct play? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain 13 Posted January 23, 2019 Author Share Posted January 23, 2019 I don't see an option on the Roku for direct play or stream? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pain 13 Posted January 24, 2019 Author Share Posted January 24, 2019 Hi Luke, Here are some screenshots and logs. Thank you Log.txt ffmpeg.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37056 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Can you try lowering the in-app quality setting on the Roku? I think the default is probably just too high for your connection to handle. For example, try setting it to 20 mbps. If that works well, then try gradually increasing it a little more. thanks.

Pain 13 Posted January 24, 2019 Author Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) I just tried that and no difference no matter what I do. I have Plex on the same nvidia shield and it plays 4k flawlessly. I have Plex set to direct stream. I forgot to mention this is all local streaming from in home.

Dukester505 1 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I use the app for my Sony android tv. And i used to be able to watch 4K with hdr no problem. And now I try a 4K movie and it only scales it to 1080p. Is it because of the app I downloaded from the App Store on my tv? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
