I see multiple people complaining about this but not any clear solution, tips, or pointers in a good direction or any tweaks. Can anyone help?

Synology DS425+ nas. When trying to play simple (even 2 minute) videos, it constantly buffers every few seconds.

I see multiple possible causes. NAS is connected via LAN. And the only devices on my Tail vpn next to the NAS are to 2 phones.

Pictures and folders loading goes fast. Except video, keeps buffering every few seconds.

Tried also via DS file app same issue.

What is the reason of this?

Is it wise to turn off transcoding?

Thank you for your help.
