Doesn't seem to be a system resource issue, so perhaps is a bandwidth issue?
Waiting for the USB stick to turn up so that I can rule that out by providing local storage.
For reference, this is overclocked to 800
Just out of interest how do you download the amazon videos to local storage, our broadband can be patchy so downloading the series would save the annoying buffering? Doesn't seem to be a system resource issue, so perhaps is a bandwidth issue?

If I'm reading that right your NIC is at 94% utilisation - if so, network issue?Doesn't seem to be a system resource issue, so perhaps is a bandwidth issue?

Anyone know how the Pi2 fares in slightly damp (but undercover) conditions?
I'm about to implement one as a security/observation camera for inside my garage (using MotionPie) but the garage is pretty damp and I'm concerned about the longeivity. I've seen a few thing suggesting they're OK if you leave them turned on in a case with reasonable airflow as the small amount of heat generated is enough to keep them dry.
Don't really want to stick it in a sealed box for heat management reasons.

I wouldn't hesitate to put it in a sealed metal box with a desiccant. The RPi 2 has a switching regulator which generates less heat than the old model B anyway, and they were perfectly fine in a box, especially under a low level of CPU load. Being open to the air will inevitably certainly lead to condensation at some point, although you could try spraying it with a conformal coating, they are a pain when it comes to bad connections.
I think my issues must be down to file type, although I need to investigate a little further.
Tried playing an episode of Narcos, only a small file (sub 500Mb), the same stuttering playback occurs.
Works fine on my PC, as does Mr Robot.
Mr Robot works fine on a USB stick plugged directly into the TV.
Hmmmmmm....

Using motioneyeos with my pi as a security camera, and trying to get it to store recorded photos on a win10 PC elsewhere in the house on the same network.
Used to do it with an Ubuntu machine, but it was a massive old tower that I needed rid of.
When I used to set the path to the folder I wanted to keep the photos in, it seemed infinitely easier with Ubuntu, it just worked! Can't for the life of me work out what the path should be for the Windows folder.
Is there a simple step by step way of finding out what I should be typing into my pi for this?

You need to set up a shared folder on your PC and then mount the share on your PI as a directory. The path is then the local directory.Used to do it with an Ubuntu machine, but it was a massive old tower that I needed rid of.
