Kodi freezes randomely when starting content from synology nas



Hi all!

When I start kodi and I wait too much to start a video file from a synology nas (in the same network), kodi freezes for several minutes. Usually it takes a restart and fast moving through the menus to reach the video then play it.

However, if I let a video on pause, I can leave kodi running for days, no problems, as I clic on play, the video start playing without any issue..

So basically I keep kodi on random videos paused all the time, and when I need to watch something else, I use an android app to select the video and start it.. Which is far from ideal..

I followed all the forum and wiki pages I could find on the subject, but even with proper synology configuration, it doesn’t work..

I think it tries to start the synology nas, wait for an answer, but the packet get lost in some ways, and wait inefinitively.

Can someone help?

Thanks!
