Until a few days ago everything was fine with playing video files on my android, ipad & on my pc, accessing & opening files etc... but now something has happened & I'm not sure what or why
I'm getting errors such as
Slow loading of directory contents in windows explorer
Invalid directory when I try to access a folder
I couldn't copy large files on or off
These have since not been so much of an issue since I reset to defaults, but it's still not working as before
But I still get errors such as
make sure you're connected to the network location
network location no longer available
video files sometimes won't play at all or past a certain point, file damaged/invalid etc...
good image files I've copied don't appear correctly will have areas of grey like it's been corrupted - only after a reboot, the areas of grey changed
My directory permissions are 777
2x 2TB HDD RAID1
FreeNAS-8.3.1-RELEASE-p2-x64 (r12686+b770da6_dirty)
I've reset to factory defaults
I only have CIFS on as sharing
I've tested files that I know played fine before & now it either says the file is damaged or incomplete, or it will play for a few mins & stop
I've tried playing one of these same files today & it went past the position where it stopped playing before with a slight skip & then stopped a little further on.
I also keep getting "sorry an error occurred" in the GUI
I set the volumes up as ZFS because I knew I was going to upgrade the RAM to 4GB - which is the max the mobo could take, but it seemed to perform better with 1GB. I tried replacing with the old RAM, but I got an insufficient memory error so I can't test it - the only thing I can think of is that the new RAM is PC2-6400, whereas the pc specs say "PC2-4200 (533MHz) or PC2-5300 (667MHz) memory supported"- but the new RAM should just operate at 667MHz rather than the 800MHz - I don't see how it's a problem, but it's the only thing I can think of that's changed.
I'm thinking it's either a problem with CIFS or the network card in the NAS, it was all working fine a few days ago & started being a problem with slow loading times in windows explorer & some images failing to show & videos stopping. It's really driving me insane!
