The irony is that I’m 100% sure his problem is with mounting the drive using kodi instead of fstab. I saw and experienced that so many times that’s almost a no brainer.
Copying the file over should take a few minutes and is just to rule out 1 aspect. But we can’t force people to troubleshoot…
Did you try NFS-mount via Kodi? It’s much easier to setup on the Kodi side and needs just a little daemon running on windows, linux server and NAS work with integrated NFS.
I have no issues running high bitrate 4K-HDR movies with several HD audiotracks from my windows machine.
No because thats sounds more promising…
With my zidoo i play every 4k movie over smb without any issue, why does vero has problems then? Its the same network? Please answer this one.
But hey, ok, i will copy over the file and play it over usb drive
After that i do a fresh install…
Hopefully things will be fixed then
Sam i appreciate your help, hope we can fix all my stuff/frustrations
ok will try
so i dont need to change anything at (unraid) server side
nor do i need to change at emby side? (i use emby as frontend for kodi to populate movies data base’)
First problem i encounter is when i use puty it says “network error connection refused” lol
not sure
i bought the device from someone else
i can see it also in my windows explorer and can browse it however i dont see a map /etc/fstab
if i browse to that ip adress its not reachable
strange
im not sure to do this fstab thing
i need to add my shares and stuff, but in my case , kodi doesnt populate the movie db, but emby does
does this have anything to do with it?
cause i dont wanna mess things up
before i try that , i should do fresh install but how
i followed the link and downloaded for windows but now it asks me where to install on sd card on usb… but nothing like on vero 4k lol
guess what
all my problems are gone (i think, have to watch movies to be sure))
However
4k movies dont stutter anymore, even on smb (even with mad max) no need to setup fstab (like i thought)
-3d movies, no more problems so far (need to check complete movie to be sure)
even downloading subtitles now work !!, didnt before
so hopefully , all are gone
only thing left but as i mentioned in opening post, this is not something vero can fix, cause its a kodi “bug” but kodi cant move pgs subtitles, so vero cant either
huge mistake that, since zidoo can
But at least now i can download subtitles which are moveable now (hopefully always in sync)
