TS251 and video station very poor playback.

Post by ed39 »

This needs to be sorted, the playback is awful. Interlacing and stuttering.
I have videos from different mobile phones in 1080p 720 in mp4. All have the stuttering and interlacing.
Plex plays perfectly.
It's either chrome browser or video station causing it.
Come on qnap find a fix, ram and CPU are hardly touched.
8gb ram TS251, HD Station and direct from QTS have the save issue.

Solved the problem. Disabled Container station and videos played back perfectly, better than they ever have.
Container Station must be hogging a lot of ram or CPU in the background.
Enable it and playback goes really poor and interlacing again.
So if I need to use Linux station I have to enable Container station(not a problem)
But I still think qnap need to fix this.

Make sure you have codexpack installed as this is needed for HW Transcoding. If you don't, then you will be using heavy CPU which CS could impact.

10 steps backwards with latest beta 4.3.2. Now opening the videos with browser are worse than ever. They would play OK before new beta, with container station disabled.
Qnap you really need to test firmware on the smaller spec machines, you are making them unusable.
