Like the title says, I'm dealing with a long loading time when playing TV episodes. It goes into the player view, but just shows a black screen w/ blue loading wheel for around 15 seconds. I've now confirmed that this is ONLY happening when I play an episode of a TV show that I have not played recently (I am not sure how recent). If I open a movie it always loads instantly. If I open a TV episode that I've recently started/watched the 15 seconds for, it also loads instantly. However, I've also tried opening an episode I've previously fully watched, and it has the same 15 second pause before it plays. Also notable is that my server's storage usage light turns on solid while this 15 seconds of processing is happening, so it seems to have something to do with fetching/processing data, but it can't be transfer speed issues since movies always play fine.. It seems to me like there's some long operation that has to happen for new TV episodes but I assumed that would happen before I can attempt to play it, right? Any help would be appreciated.
