What is RAW transmission speed of the your network setup (without FileSystems)? Do you measure it? I think it's useful for identify problem.

Also DLNA has no problem with playing MKV files (unfortunelly fast forward doesn't work). Only Samba have problems with playing does files.
EDIT:
Beside, EVERYONE that has WLAN and using Samba in SamyGo have (so far) this problem. Of course it depends on the file. But, those with high bitrates and 1080p resolution have pretty good chance to lag as hell.
http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/man ... ifs.8.html
http://pserver.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs ... -guide.pdf
may you find some informations there
you also can try to change mount options in SamyGO/etc/init.d/04_04_samba.init
like:
Code: Select all
M_OPTS="$PERM,user=${USER},password=${PASSWD}"
to:
Code: Select all
M_OPTS="$PERM,user=${USER},password=${PASSWD},rsize=130048,nobrl"
and add module parameter like:
Code: Select all
insmod $SYSROOT/lib/modules/cifs.ko CIFSMaxBufSize=0x130048 cifs_min_rcv=0x64 cifs_min_small=0x256 cifs_max_pending=0x256
