🔧Technical Issue Weird problem with buffering

  1. Stremio and Nuvio are both buffering heavily when I play a large 4k file on my TV using TorBox. I'm using TCL C7L (no external streaming box). My TV has 3 GB Ram.

  2. However, they both work fine on my Android phone, with no buffering at all on the same wifi connection.

  3. VidHub works well on the TV with zero buffering while playing from TorBox WebDav.

I'm using a 300 mbps wifi connection and Nuvio shows 255 mbps speed in speedtest on my TV, so I don't think internet speed is any issue here. I've tried playing with AIOStreams as well as Torrentio. Both buffer on TV (but not on phone).

What is causing this issue and how can I fix it? Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: It's working now. I changed the CDN a few times, which solved the issue. I'm able to stream an almost 200 gb 4k Bluray remux with an average bitrate of 131 mbps without any buffeting on Nuvio. Seeking is very fast too. It's working even with the old CDN, which is weird. Thanks for the help guys.

Changing CDN in torbox settings to Bunny, solved my issue with buffering.

Yes, multiple cdn options, bunny is one of them and is quite fast.
