    There have been media players around with chipsets far less powerful and capable of handling these requirements (and the hd51 is typical of the arm receivers and you don‘t see endless protests about not being able to play apart from some strange audio codecs), so its likely to be the settings on the hd51/TV that need sorting out.

    I really tried changing settings but it kept jerking.

    So it has nothing to do with the capability of the receiver you do not think?
    Nothing to do with flash memeory ram? processor power?

    Hi guys
    I thought I would paste a link of the problems I was experiencing with the playback

    See link

    Question is whether it's the receiver or the settings

    I can't see it being the receiver, does it always fail at the same place?

    Yes and few other scenes and other episodes. That video was just an example.
    I can't see what other reason it could be. I tried playing it through that e2iplayer but same thing happened.
    Tried changing the hdmi ports. Same thing.

    Also thinking its the receiver because it has no problems playing the file when I insert the portable hardrive directly into the TV. So the TV is clearly capable

    What files does the tv support i would be checking that,i thought you said file was on internal hdd or you have a copy also on portable.
    I have 2 desktop externally powered ones and files wont play on e2 box because it was recorded differently on a non e2 box.
    Was thinking must be a media player in plugins that plays that source,the joys of modern tech

    I can change the settings on my ancient tv for each individual input, so tuner, hdmi, scart etc can all have different values.

    On your tv, hdmi and usb are clearly very different types of input device.

    I don't know exactly what my TV supports but it's an LG 4k TV. Yes I said it works with my portable hardrive connected to the TV. I tried connecting the portable hardrive into the receiver but the same thing happens. The file is also on my internal hardrive.

    Yh I know so it must be the receiver because portable USB plays fine. Maybe the hdmi speeds or something else is limited here to play the file from the receiver.

    I'm suggesting the complete opposite.

    For example, and it's only an example, usb input may be set to 1080, which would have a better chance of working.

    I'm assuming "receiver" is the hd51.

    Yes the receiver is a hd51. But when I plug the portable hardrive it plays in 2160p resolution. I don't have to use do anything. It just plays perfectly

    What about the tv "special assists" mentioned earlier, could they differ between hdmi and usb input?
