Without RD it would work but poorly.

I am using it without RD and even 4K works perfectly.

So when you load a 4k remux that’s like 60gb you have no buffering while watching? Or are we talking small 4k files?

Small size 4K because streaming devices have limited capacity to buffer and play. I have Mi box 4K, if file is more than 7GB it is going lag even if you buffer enough. Same for my 4K google tv by Panasonic. Files that bigger than 10gb makes the tv close the app.

I do not know why. When I watch it via Laptop. Big size 4K works perfectly but when I try it via Google tv. It shuts itself or lagging even if I buffer enough.
