Lagging Emby

[pawlopi 0]

Hello everyone, I bought lifetime licence of Emby after log time of Plex expirience (fast, zero problems) due to crazy prices at the competitors plan. Unfotunately my Emby is almost unusable due to lagging. Almost all plugs are switched off, also other options like hardware acceleration etc and very often my content not loading on remote devices at all or I have to wait a minutes to hear the sound or watch te move. Can You look at that all and tell what can be the reason for that kind of long time server answer? If I should share more information please let me know. I'm ruuning Emby on pretty old Synology drive instaled directly from site (not container) and have the latest version.

Thank You

Hi, as long as you get the log from the server web interface, then you shouldn't have to.

What model Synology do you have?
