Hello everyone,
I was wondering if i could get some help on this.
There are a few option for U5, one of which is to SUSPEND an other one to RESTART and one more SHUTDOW/Turn OFF in power management. I use SUSPEND all the time since its much faster to wake up the unit after its been turned off and not to wait for the LOGO load on the screen.
The problem is and its been happening consistently since i bought it about 6 months ago.
1. Restart the unit.
2. Turn it to SUSPEND = turning off U5, it will go into a "sleep" mode which will allow it to turn back ON much faster.
3. Watch a few movies. Does not matter in which format or length but usually i watch UHD 4k off the network shares.
4. Turn off using SUSPEND.
5. After few days when i got back to continue watching the same movie OR the movies that i watched the other day. U5 is lagging while trying to load the move. The unit it self works fine, it loads PLEX or any other "video player" no problem, no issues BUT when it tries to play the movie that worked just fine a few days ago, its take much longer to load and once it does playing, it stops every few seconds and complains that internet/network connection is slow. Same movies worked before just fine.
6. To fix this I go to options and restart U5, it restarts with the loading logo, takes 10-15sec or so and its back to working fine, playing the same movies without any slowdowns.
Any ideas why it happens? At first i thought it was some connection issue between U5 and cat cable. Everything looks fine, there are nothing happening on the network when those issue appear, no file transfers, no one is watching HD movies anywhere else in the house. Latterly, nothing special. More importantly, restarting the until fixes the issue right the way which makes me thing that when the U5 un suspend mode, it maybe running some background commands like checking apps updates and such which bags down the android OS that would be not unheard off.
Anyway was wondering if anyone else is using the until in SUSPEND mode all the time without any issues.
With Respct Dantes.
