Plex for Kodi addon on Mi Box + 4K Content

by jl94x4

Does anyone on here use Plex for Kodi (official addon) and watch x264/x265 4k files? The reason I ask is because no matter what 4k content I try to watch i get very stuttery playback, it only happens on 4k files. Its definitely not buffering or struggling with Internet capacity and I've tried various settings inside Kodi but it doesn't seem to fix it.

Just wondering if I'm alone or this is a common problem. I'm on the Android 7.0 BETA for the Mi Box.

It might suffer from the same problem most Android TV's proper do, they can't process the high bitrate files.

4K streaming needs:

a) top Spec AC WiFi router or an USB to Ethernet adapter on the Mi Box.

b) Android Settings > Display > Screen Resolution > 4K2K60hz

c) try using a large Kodi Video Cache:

AML S905's like the Mi Box has can decode and play 4K files in excess of 4K UHD Bluray bitrates - but you have to use LibreELEC Kodi Krypton.
