I tried to playing Jellyfish Video Bitrate Test Files from http://jell.yfish.us/ with Q5 Pro internal player and got the error: "Video problem"
I can confirm the error and the player just close itself.
I tried:
jellyfish-200-mbps-4k-uhd-h264.mkv
jellyfish-200-mbps-4k-uhd-hevc-10bit.mkv
jellyfish-100-mbps-hd-h264.mkv
and the 50, 25, 10, 5, 3 mbps test files (h264).
Internal player was able to play only the 3mbps h264 file (not the hevc ones).
Kodi's player playing everything regardless the encoding used till the 100mbps file perfectly however it's shuttering with the 200mbps ones. I playing the files from a samba share.
Any idea what could be the problem?
Edit:
They are working with VLC Player as well (200mbps is shuttering).
Edit2:
Test files playing fine with internal player if i copy them to the device.

jellyfish-200-mbps-4k-uhd-hevc-10bit.mkv plays OK here. That's from a Samba share on a Dlink NAS.
Also tested (because we have these samples but not the others you list):
jellyfish-120-mbps-4k-uhd-h264.mkv
jellyfish-60-mbps-hd-hevc-10bit.mkv
jellyfish-140-mbps-4k-uhd-hevc-10bit.mkv
All play OK.
I think something is wrong with your network setup. Try navigating through the LAN / NFS icon in media center rather than via a shortcut. Does it make any difference?

Yes, different error message: "Content can not be read"

Another interesting fact:
Q5 Pro connection speed is gigabit (cat /sys/class/net/<interface>/speed = 1000) but I can only copy around ~ 9-7MByte/sec to the device. On the same cable, same file but with another device ~100-110MByte/sec.

Are also other topic about network speed:

samba test, you can see is Android limited background processe on CPU usage.

Ok, so that's one problem explained, thank you. Any solution, like use of NFS?
Any idea for my other issue?
"Video problem" through kodi -> wrapper -> internal player
"Content can not be read" through media center -> LAN -> internal player

NFS protocol all play good.
Ok, will try to set up a NFS server. :\
-
Just tried from a smb share created with windows and internal player plays just fine the 100mbit/s file and playing the 200mbit/s with shuttering.
Will try to find out what is the problem with the bloody samba server on my linux box.
I hate linux...

haneWIN NFS Serve (http://www.hanewin.net/)r easy to set on Windows.

Nah, I have a linux box as my NAS+gateway+downloader+etc server and I cursed that decision several times in my life. :D
So I just installed a NFS server on it, and surprise: it plays even the 200mbps hevc without any issue. And as I see there is no NFS compatible file manager for android. Great. Ohh well, I try to figure out how to set up NFS for Kodi...

Ohh man, this means I need to re-add and re-configure all of my libraries with Kodi again... :'''(

Need read first post form Password Protected SAMBA / NFS Shares Kodi+wrapper, to get working...
NFS shares are mounted at /mnt/nfsShare/
Kodi is Root filesystem /mnt/nfsShare/

You read my mind. Thanks. :)
Ok, so shares remounted with Q5 Pro, paths mass replaced in Kodi' library (import-export to xml), everything looks great.
Except in the process I realized that it does matter a lot how I configure the linux NFS share, because it needs a specific configuration to not get the same error than before with samba. It must be some kind of sorcery because the configuration change does not seem to be related to the error but well, this is linux again...
NFS config (/etc/export) that gives the same error to internal player than before on Samba:
path 192.168.1.1/24(rw,async,all_squash,insecure,subtree_check)
NFS config that makes internal player works with jelly 200 but makes it unplayable to Kodi's player:
path 192.168.1.1/24(rw,async,no_root_squash,subtree_check)
I feel that I'm almost there... :P
Unfortunately I'm not a NFS expert so can someone explain/suggest?
