Buffering after 1 hour - nobody - 2025-02-16

Jellyfin version: 10.10.5 (jellyfin_10.10.5_windows-x64.exe)
Host: Windows 11, i5 10600K, RTX 3060, 32GB RAM, NVME for OS + 2 x 860 EVO SSD's in RAID0.
Streaming device: LG OLED65C9PLA / WebOS with the official Jellyfin application.

4k video was playing just fine for about an hour, where it suddenly seemed to be buffering a bunch. Turned off and on my TV and it was fine again for a while, but eventually started buffering again. I'll include a picture with all my settings and the log file below:

Are you running out of disk space on your D drive?

I have 583GB free, that's a partition on my NVME

Can you share the ffmpeg log via privatebin.net? I want to see why ffmpeg crashed.

I believe that is the correct one. When it started buffering, I turned my TV off and on again, not sure if the streaming device will cause a crash?

Does this issue only happen on some movies? All movies? Only HDR movies? My current guess is that this is the Nvidia driver crashing.

What Nvidia driver version do you have installed? And what kind of GPU?

This is the exact card I have: https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/graphics-cards/dual/dual-rtx3060-o12g-v2/

Driver version: 560.94

Edit: I have not restarted my PC or anything, not manually started the Nvidia drivers or anything since that first buffering issue, though I did restart my TV twice for the remainder of the movie due to buffering issues. I got to watch the full movie though!

Edit 2: That was literally the first movie I have watched like this, so I don't have a proper sample size yet. I plan on getting 24TB drive in the fall assuming I get this all working properly.

Tested a new movie today, 1080 instead of 4k, it seemed to buffer even more:

Nothing obviously wrong. Though it is strange that nothing happened after you initiated playback prior to restarting Jellyfin.

Not much to work with.

The video is direct playing, could it simply be the LG TV itself that bugs out? I can't imagine it's on the host side.
