How to access advancedsettings.xml

For this particular video, you’ve probably hit the limits of the Vero4K’s network interface. We have seen a few similar cases appearing on this forum, so you’re by no means alone, but for the vast majority of cases, the 100 Mbits/sec interface is enough. (It is for me, for example.)

The main workarounds in situations like this are:

  • remux the video to a lower bitrate;
  • pre-copy the file to locally-attached USB storage; or
  • buy a gigabit USB adapter

Just for your information, the Vero4K’s default cache settings are:

<advancedsettings>
       <cache>
              <buffermode>1</buffermode>
              <memorysize>524880000</memorysize>
              <readfactor>5.0</readfactor>
       </cache>
</advancedsettings>

so there’s already 500 MB of cache available!

Edit: As @fzinken says, 5 GHz WiFi might also be an option in this case, though WiFi in general can be subject to external interference.
