Updated to 19 to see if this was fixed since it was happening with 9.2.6
I have two boxes currently using CoreELEC (S912 and S905X3) and the former works perfectly fine with 9.2.6 using the same file server and files.
I have to spam play on a video file for it to eventually play. It just says playback failed until it doesn’t.
This is with 9.2.6 (same file everytime)
