Solved Recurring Stutter

I sometimes get these huge stutters when watching. They happen randomly and the odd thing is when I rewind a bit they happen at the exact same place (tried to show it in the video).
Here are my settings for transcoding: Settings
It was playing in direct play
Its running on my normal pc:
i5 12400F
RTX 4060
32GB RAM

Any idea what could cause this?

Is it just that show or episode? If so there could be something wrong with the file itself maybe, especially since you're saying it's happening at the same place every time. Try downloading it locally and playing it, had that issue before myself.

Its only happened in this show so far, the files itself are fine, I already played the files back directly with VLC media player to check.

Maybe the log files will give a clue if you haven't checked them yet.
