    I see, that makes sense. It seems to work a lot better locally. Using RSync to monitor progress, I got surprisingly slow transfer speeds.

    How much of a video file does Jellyfin need to have before it starts transcoding (out of curiosity)?

    I am not sure why my network connection seems to be slow. At least it gives me a direction to try to troubleshoot, which is a relief.

    Looks like iperf3 speeds are ~100mbps, which is slower than I would expect, but in Rsync I was only getting 8-10mbps. Strange.

    I tried copying the same file over the same SMB share onto another computer, using the same 2.5gbe USB NIC, and it worked at ~200 megabits per second. iperf also seems to be notably faster.
