UMS & Xbox One

Post by desless »

Hi,

Wondering if anyone have successfully streamed / transcoded Movies from NAS, via Skifta or some other app to the Xbox One?

I have encountered 2 issues.

1) transcoding stops after 15-30 Seconds, if it doesn't then -» 2)
2) a lot of skipping frames.

Setup: nas -» switch -» pc -» UMS -» skifta (iPhone app) -» Xbox One on Gigabit network. Using about 180mb/sec according to UMS.
I am not on my computer now, so no Access to debug logs.

Thanks

I think the problem with using Skifta to push to any device is that it has to route the traffic though the device that called it form... so liek.. UMS --> ipHone --> xbox One...

so the network limitation is the iPhone in this case...

Buffer underlfow i think is related to the need of the xbox of more data than what is being delivered... so what i think is happening is that the iPhone is a bottle neck.

not to sure but ive seen this before with Skifta on Android doing the kind of same thing you just mentioned with TV's and other android devices.
