Thank you kindly for your reply. I am going to try tweaking a few things based on your very helpful feedback and will report back ASAP.
For starters, what would you recommend doing to reduce the file size while keeping most or all of the quality? Yeah, I'm seeing movies top out around 80GB. I was kind of wondering how spinny drives were supposed to read that in like 90 minutes. It is only 118 Mb/s though which shouldn't be an issue certainly for the network which I clocked at about 500 Mb/s up or the drives which reat at 6Gb/s. But I surely wouldn't mind halving the file size if using H.265 or similar to keep the quality.
I'm using the LG OS Jellyfin app. Again, playback is great except for the dark scenes.
But again, thanks for the reply. I may be a network dev by the time this is over after all!!
