Thanks all. I knew mechanical drives have their own limitations but was hoping my data transfer speed threshold was not currently limited by the Ethernet. Too expensive to go faster at this time. I never thought about using the 5G either (so will give that shot).
One less reason to build a...
Newb Question
Right now using Ethernet I transfer large file media data between HDD's on two different PC's at about 110 MB/s. Lets say the sending drive and receiving are the same brand and both 7200 RPM. Would upgrading to the 'latest/greatest' MB gain me any transfer speed?
Going to SSD is...
May end up being basic. Uninstalled Kodi, cleared cache, reset device (just to be certain all remnants were gone), reinstalled and so far all is OK. It's playing 4k UHD files it could not before.
Never had what may have been a corrupted version of Kodi before. Still have not finished running it...
Thanks. Can't be network. Both use the same and both are running ethernet (not wifi). Can't be HDD because I'm using the same 7200 RPM HDD that has the file on it and playing it INTERNALLY (yes - not enclosure) successfully when in the i7-5960x and only see the buffer when playing in the...
Streaming from i5-7500 to Shield (using Kodi) then to TV buffers playing 4K HEVC UHD, Not playing on.
To clarify that it is not a Shield issue, codec issue or other pc component issue ....the same media file plays fine streaming from an i7-5960x to Shield (using Kodi) to TV
1. CPU (The 630) in the case of the i5-7500. (None on the i7-5960x either... all media being sent to the router as data.) The cpu's only job it to make the data available to the ethernet and then on to the Shield. It's only streaming.
2. Same file using Shield with i7-5960x streaming = perfect...
Sorry I wasn't clear.
But the Shield (and Kodi) are completely capable of processing the codec that the i5-7500 also plays (but continually buffers).
I know this because when I change and use my i7-5960x cpu all media files play without buffering including the HEVC 4k UHD using the Shield and...
So.... I have this little PC. Specs are:
Fractal Design Node 202 with included Integra SFX 450w Power Supply.
Intel i5 7500 Kaby Lake 3.4Ghz Processor 7th Generation
Noctua N-HL9i Cpu Cooler
Gigabyte GA-H270N- Wifi Motherboard.
Hyper X Fury 8gb (two 4gb sticks)2133mhz Ram.
Sandisk ssd plus...
Does anyone know the 'backstory' about this? Is the FBI concern to ditch Kaspersky with merit?
I'm dubious because the company offered their source code as proof but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if this is a witchhunt or done out of spite (think election - but do not drag this tread...
Thanks for all the input. I'll eventually likely have no choice but to upgrade.
It seems to me like a game based on offering consumers 'nicer looking media' but at the expense of repurchasing media they have accumulated.
I suspect that is the main push behind 1080p to 4k and soon 8k.
I...
The problem is the content is not available in a better format. Both The Outer Limits (original) and One Step Beyond (and others) while available on DVD were not 'remastered' - just transferred and look horrible on 4k. If it was a matter of time before they were actually remastered properly I...
The original size is too small as the only reason I have to upgrade is to have a bigger image. (I've seen the original image size running it through Kodi but prefer it larger.) But you do make me wonder if I were to have shrunk the 480p image to 50" on the 65" OLED if it would have looked...
