    what hardware are you running JF server on? I feel I should not be limited there, but maybe the server needs more CPU and RAM than I can give it... which would be odd to just direct play a file from storage.
    The other difference might be that I've currently limited to SMB1 (CIFS) to mount my external drives to my NAS... I have requested the manufacturer enter modern times and allow me to use SMB2/3 for that. But that aside, my feature request stands, as it resolves the problem, adds a useful feature, and make high bit rate media more playable in perhaps some lighter weight JF servers.
