I am having issues playing some BluRay rips on my PS4 Plex client, and was looking for some advice.
The server is a local server running on Unraid Pro. it is running in a needo/plex:latest docker on a dedicated SSD and everything is fully up to date. The server never seems stressed with CPU, RAM, LAN, and I/O all being well below 50% at all times.
The issues I am having are distortions and tearing that happen at random times, but seem to happen more when there is a lot of action on screen. I have re-ripped and even bought new media thinking that it might have been a bad BluRay. I have tried every setting I could think of to no avail.
My network is all Gig Lan, Netgear switches, Cat 6 Shielded Cables with dedicated IP's on everything.
The server hardware is:
OS: Unraid 6.19
Docker: needo/plex:latest
Plex: 1.0.3.2461
CPU: AMD FX-8320E Eight-Core @ 3200
M/B: MSI - 970 GAMING
RAM: 8GB DDR3
