Ok I bought a PS4 to get this working, since everyone is ditching them for PS5s ;) Trying to reproduce it now Have you had any issues with pausing and resuming videos on your PS4? I've been using mine more often to watch h265 videos that have to be transcoded and most of the time if I pause I get a...

I don't see anything being played in that log so don't know anything about that file. However, you saying that the file plays from USB but struggles to play without transcoding from UMS suggests that it could be a network speed problem, and playing that file could be maxing it out. I don't know what...
