My 'External NAS' is just a Nvidia shield pro with a lot of external drives attached. It has great access via SMB to those drive. So I'd have to see if there was a playstore app to serve sftp there effectively. UPDATE: nothing I would trust putting on there, and also would be dubious of performance. So looks like a non starter here.
Would you expect SFTP to be faster than my CIFS mount then? I moved 120GB from one external drive to another external drive today, both at my Shield; but used my Synology's Filestation via those CIFS shares to do the file move, and it copied at 50 to 80 MBps pretty consistently... so that's like 400 to 640 Mbps.
When I watch via Jellyfin, 99% of the playback is just fine... so its delivering like 130mbps UHD... but I also consistent get those 1 to 2 second interruptions, and have had disconnects requiring me to restart movies sometimes also. Those off course not happening when not using Jellyfin. I did not get those interruptions watching a movie from a drive inside my Synology NAS... at least not yet.
I just wish I had the option to just play the file direct per this request... then this problem goes away.
