How strong a computer do you need to stream 4K Movies over caddy w/ reverse proxy? - jellykrabbypatty - 2025-11-16
Hello,
I have no problems with anything else but 4K content streamed remotely gets choppy and then freezes up. How strong a computer do I need to stream this? I have an intel i7 quad processor and Intel Graphics (No graphics card) and 16GB ram. I am using Roku receiving client that is 4K capable and a 4K TV so there is no transcoding. The server also says it is not transcoding. But all 4K movies don't work after five minutes or so. I am using reverse proxy caddy with Dynu and my own domain. The connection is fiber to fiber. Thanks for any assist!
