Chromecast with google tv stutter

[scdouglas]

Hey everybody, I have jellyfin on my Chromecast with google tv (the 4k capable one) and I've been trying to figure out what's going on with the stuttering. Throughout many of my high quality files (15GB+) the movies will just stop as if they're buffering multiple times during my watch. I know they're not buffering because I have a 1Gb Ethernet adapter plugged in and it still does it, I've also verified the same thing on WiFi just in case. The going theory right now is that the higher bit rate files are just too much for the poor Chromecast and something more powerful is required. Unless anyone else has any theories as to what's happening, are others using the nvidia shield (or pro)? That seems to be my next step here barring any revelations. I'm not the most advanced user but I can do my best to provide any information I can if it will help.

Thanks
