Re: Laggy Playback of 4k UHD from Plex to ATV on wired gigabit
Is Infuse a client that feeds off the plex server the same way the plex client does? Aren't there some limitations wrt to dolby video and/or dolby atmos playback with this approach? I didn't spend much time with it, but it was easy to use, found my NAS without any drama, and it at least played the ...

Re: Laggy Playback of 4k UHD from Plex to ATV on wired gigabit
Sure enough. The latest gen3 AppleTV plays back the uncompressed 4k UHD titles with Plex just fine.
Cool!

What are all the different tracks?
This is probably the most basic of questions, and I'm sorry if this is actually explained somewhere, but I can't find it. When makemkv analyzes a disc it displays a list of titles -- what is it actually showing?. The largest ones are typically the same size and have the same content under the tree. ...

Re: Laggy Playback of 4k UHD from Plex to ATV on wired gigabit
As a side note, transcoding UHDs is a lot more complicated than a standard blu-ray because of the various HDR formats. The most problematic of those is Dolby Vision. Yeah, I bet. And I really don't want to get into that. We have an actual MadVR device between the audio processor and the projector, ...

Re: Laggy Playback of 4k UHD from Plex to ATV on wired gigabit
Yeah, it's doing "Direct Play". I installed "Infuse" on that AppleTV and it actually plays the same movies just fine -- no lag or sync problems at all. I suppose I'll spend the $130 and upgrade that gen1 AppleTV4k to the newest gen3 and see. Kinda smells like it's not quite power...

Laggy Playback of 4k UHD from Plex to ATV on wired gigabit
I’ve been ripping DVDs for the past few weeks with makemkv and it’s been nice. I just into my 4k UHD collection tonight. The setup is the “raw” .mkv files are served up via a Plex sever, streaming to a (first gen) AppleTV 4k (Plex player app installed) over a wired, gigabit network. Both the Plex s...
