This is so incredibly frustrating. A little background first:
We have 2 Plex servers in our house (one on NAS cloud, one on a PC)
-We have 4 Vizios in our house.
-All 4 TVs stream off of PC fine at original bitrates (no transcoding)
- 3 of them stream fine off of NAS fine (M422 does not)
-Within our internal LAN our phones and tablets that we've tested on stream fine off both servers.
For the life of me I cannot get the M422 to stream any video file off the NAS (keep in mind every other device in the house streams fine off the NAS). It keeps giving me the "server not powerful enough" message. I'm not asking it to transcode...just play it in original bitrate.
So to test it I made a bare bones, 4 minute, 720x406 (1200 kbps) mp4, zero subtitles, zero burned in subtitles, no secondary audio tracks, only a single AAC stereo track. No luck. Everything in the house played the test video fine.
As a last resort I re-recreated the test video with no audio at all. Still no luck.
I'm at my wits end, I can't think of anything else to try. And it's problematic because it's in our home gym where we watch a lot of movies/episodes.
Any ideas? Aargh!
