Ok, i tried it again today. I resumed the movie from yesterday at the around 30 min mark with refresh rate switching deactivated. It was stuttery again. Then i switched to scale from TV and it plays fine. So that setting seem to make a difference and thought that i had found a solution. But after an additional 20 min of watching the same stutteriness happened again even with scale to tv.
I also took a look at the logs and there is nothing. Not sure if that should be but there is no mentioning of me starting a movie. Also there is no transcode log, because the movie is direct playing.
I feel like i am not one step closer to knowing why the movies are behaving that way nor if the server or the fire stick is the culprit... I am still leaning towards the fire stick, as everything plays fine on my webbrowser...
edit: out of curiosity i resumed the movie where it started to stutter yesterday. Now it plays fine. But i suspect its only a matter of time until it starts to stutter again. Maybe there is some kind of buffer/cache problem with the fire stick?
edit2: just to mention again that its only some movies, i just watched another 4k movie and it went smooth and without any problems from the beginning to the end. File format in both cases was .mkv, the file size was even larger now than with the stuttery movie.
