I run plex from my pc to my tv via the Samsung plex app this is run from 500mb homeplugs
I have recently starting ripping my bluray collection and to keep the DTS track along with a good video bitrate they come to around 20-40gb this is fine as I have the storage space.
However I am now finding plex struggles to playback the audio track as the bitrate is very high (don't have it to hand)
My network card is a gigabit so I don't know if this has any bearing or not
What environment would I need in order to achieve playback as I have ripped avatar 3D and the picture is fine however again the DTS track is choppy and just wont play.
I have read that I should increase the buffer on the TV app so im yet to try this.
But im just wondering what setup should I be going for to ensure I can do this flawlessy
I plan to build a htpc and connect this to the main tv soon so hopefully this will bypass what is happening.
I am wondering if I run through an amp (Yamaha) would this take care of the DTS track?
Bit confused with the world of streaming as I don't know much about network speeds etc but when I check windows task manager im running between 7.7mbps and 27mbps when a movie is playing across the network.
Sorry for the wall of text!
