Stuttering when playing video on a networked NAS

If you experience stuttering when playing videos from a networked NAS, here's what you can do:

Try copying one of your stuttering video files to an external drive connected via USB to the player. Then try playing it with Explorer. If it works correctly and there are no stutters, the problem may be with your network switch. To test this, try bypassing your network switch by connecting your player and NAS directly to your router. If this works, replace the network switch with another brand. Unfortunately, some network switches can cause this type of problem.
