  • What ReadyNAS model and what firmware is it running?

     

    Also, what streaming tool are you using on the NAS?  ReadyDLNA or something else?

     

    What are you using to play the media on the PC?

        Have you tried using SMB access (accessing the share in windows or finder) and then playing the file directly with VLC?

  • Have updated 6.6.1
    I had smb running as well I have taken all other protocols off now and works a treat, must have been conflicting protocols
