I have tested this with multiple clients under Android (tested with Nextcloud App and Firefox Browser) and Windows (Firefox browser) clients. However, I guess this is only because the issue is hidden by the comparatively small throughput needed for such videos. The issue does not happen (or at least is significantly less) with low bitrate videos. I also observed time to play varies from try to try, while time for just downloading the file is fairly same all the time. If I try to stream the same file it takes maybe 20 sec until it starts playing. However, the point I’m making here is, the buffering often takes significant longer than the time needed to download the entire video - while I’d expect the exact opposite.įor example, here in the local LAN it takes 2-3 sec to download a small 70MB video-clip to my client PC. I’m aware that certain buffer time and also possible interruptions are normal for a video with such high bitrate and it is depending on network connection speed. In the Android client the spinning wheel is spinning for ages, in the browser (Firefox) the video screen is just black until the video finally play. When I try to stream my video-clips earlier recorded with my smart phone (1080 / 60fps / 50mbps) I recognize that the client often needs long time until the video starts playing.
