A week ago I would have emphatically echoed @maddox sentiments
However, now that I am trying to utilize a Low Powered Win 10 Acepc (GK-1) as a test Server, I cannot agree completely.
For background see thread Newest Test for a Windows 10 mini PC
This may possibly be an anomaly due to the specs of GK-1 as it is probably close to minimum requirements, whereas you indicate a much more capable Win10 device. Additionally, my MoCA 1 (100mb/s limited) may also be a bottleneck in my network…IMO, neither should be causing the problem, but ???.
As can be seen, the ffd/commercial skip from GK-1 to a local ATV4K (which is not on the same switch as the Win 10 GK-1 (but both are on the same hardwired network ) has been erratic (unacceptable to me).
Still haven’t been able to resolve my situation, even with many helpful posts/suggestions on the thread. Though I really think if there was a problem Win 10 to ATV4K (not on same switch) other users would be complaining.
Would suggest buying an ATV4K to test drive your total config. Even though per your posting 4K is not required, the price difference is not much, considering that you gain 1 Gig Ethernet and a better processor, etc. vs ATV4.
