Thanks for your response! Something interesting happened. While trying to provide a clean log for one file, I found around 18 log files in the folder. Since I wasn’t sure what each one was for, I decided to manually delete everything I could. One log file couldn’t be deleted while the server was running, so I stopped the Jellyfin service, deleted it, and then rebooted the PC.
After restarting with a clean log, I tested some heavier media, starting with a 1080p file, which worked perfectly. I then tried a 4K file, and it played smoothly as well. However, I initially experienced stuttering with one specific file. Interestingly, after playing another 1080p file that worked fine, I went back to the problematic file, and it played without issues—15 minutes in so far.
This makes me think the issue might be intermittent, as I can’t pinpoint why it suddenly started working. I’ve tried multiple reboots, reinstalls and different clients in the past with no success, but it seems like the log cleanup may have helped. I’m hopeful the issue is resolved for now.
In your experience would this be a cause of problems?
Thanks for your time
