Hi, as the title says, when streaming to the jellyfin app an a fire TV, the video freezes every two minutes. This happens when direct streaming, so it shouldn’t be a transcoding issue. Useing the website it works just fine. Any idea how I can find out what this is?

Edit: I just noticed, when forcing transcoding by limiting the quality (Bitrate) on the client to lower values, it does not freeze…

    Bitrate varies, some files work, some don’t. Even in one season of a show episode 1 streams perfectly fine, episode 2 freezes every 2 mins.
    Bitrate of a file is around 8Mbps, local bandwidth is 1Gbps.

      What are the bitrates, codec, and containers of those 2 files?
