All,
Not sure if I put this in the right category, but I am having issues streaming media from my WD TV Hub (has a built in 1tb hard drive) to my iPad using Plex. If I put the files directly on my mac mini Plex works great, never has issues. Yet if I play them through Plex directly from the WD TV Hub (which is connected wirelessly through SMP to the mac mini) it plays for like 5-10 minutes then stops. Something is happening between the Hub and the Computer than is causing issues for Plex. If I use an app like Infuse I can access the files directly from my WD Hub without any issues. But once I add the Mac Mini into the equation it doesn't work.
I plan to buy an Apple TV 4 and I'd like to use Plex on it to access my library. But I'd like to keep all my media on the Hub if possible to avoid having to buy another hard drive. Also I have WD TV players hooked up to other TVs throughout the house so I want those to still have access to the files. Any ideas what could be causing the issues? Could it be SMP? Any other issues I haven't thought of?
Help! Thanks in advance.
Casey
