Hi,

 

I get really slow access when playing video_ts in Plex or XBMC. Once the dvd plays it is alright, but to access menus or start playing takes over 1 minute and the share is spun up. In Front Row I don't have this slow delay. Is there anyone else usinig Unraid with Plex or XBMC? What is your experience?

 

This does not happen with avi or mkv. They are accessed without delay.

 

Thanks,

 

Roland

What version of XBMC?

When I hear of inconsistent access times through the network, and the only change is configuration related, I recommend making sure that your nameserver is set correctly, see the Improving unRAID Performance, Update nameserver & hosts file section.  I really don't know if it will make a difference, just something to try...  It can't hurt, and often helps Telnet and other types of initial access.
