Jellyfin stuttering (lemmy.today)

submitted 11 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

19 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Hi,

I have recently set up a Jellyfin server running on a Beelink S12 pro in docker (with a few other containers running), and I am having a few problems with stuttering video.

I get little micro-stutters every few seconds regardless of whether it is direct play or transcoding and regardless of what client I use (librelec with Jellyfin plugin), android phone, or firefox on a windows laptop), and I am struggling to narrow down the cause of it.

Any ideas of where I should look first?

The server utilisation seems low, I have tried a wired and wifi connection, I have tried 720, 1080, and 2160 resolution videos, with and without transcoding.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Where are you storing your data, and how many processes are accessing it at once?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

The data is on an SATA SSD but I could try moving some over to the small M2 drive to see if there is a difference. Jellyfin is the only process accessing it.

Any SSD should be plenty fast. My server uses a 7200RPM hard drive mounted as a network drive via NFS.

Note that m.2 is a form factor, not a protocol. There are m.2 SATA SSDs. If you want a faster SSD, ensure it is nvme.

Sorry, it is nvme
