What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I'm not having a specifc problem, but I am looking for guidance on optimizing my rclone mount command. The primary purpose of the mount is to stream content from my Plex library. The library is primarily composed of HD and 4K movies and TV shows. The movies are mainly remux files. I also have an audiobook library containing primarily m4b audiobook files. Everything works for the most part, but I do get a little bit of buffering time at the beginning of some TV shows or movies. I'm wondering if I can optimize my setup at all. The specific flags I'm wondering about are the --vfs-read-chunk-size flag, increase the --bwlimit-file, and whether I should add a --vfs-read-chunk-size-limit flag (or potentially turn off the size limit altogether).
I'd greatly appreciate any thoughts/guidance on these settings (or any other settings that may help). Thanks in advance!
