    I think people are looking for additional information, that is why chemelli is asking you to perform the shift + t on the display, to have you report back what you are seeing with some of those channels.

    edit: My bad - that should be shift+1 (not the "t" key)

    Ahem ... I tried Shift 1 and Shift T but I can't get any reaction :mad:
    I have to do this on the client using the TV client plugin right ?
    Are these the good keys to see informations about streaming ?

    That's good to feel like I'm not alone.

    What's your server's network chipset ukra ? Mine is Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet ...
    I only use 100 Mbps communications.

    All my network communications are also 100 mbps.

    My "server" has a motherboard from Asrock (K8SLI-eSATA2) It has an onboard LAN with
    Realtek PHY RTL8201CL chipset.

    I tried to configure one of my clients as a server. The client has a Asus M2N SLI motherboard with onboard LAN chipset from Nvidia. Specs are copied from Asus.com
    (NVIDIA nForce® 500 SLI™ MCP built-in Gigabit MAC with external Attansic PHY)
    That didn´t change anything.

    My router is a Linksys WAG54GS.

    My router is a Sagem, anyway I replaced it with a simple switch and the problem was the same.

    I thought about a problem with the network packets size. That could explain that streaming works well on the same machine (single seat) but doesn't work over ethernet.

    I'll Wireshark my server if I have time.

    The bitrate used by the stuttering channels is more interesting than resolution and fps. I don't think there's a MP tool to analyze the bitrate but you could use TSReader Lite (the application) to analyze recordings or 'i' button in MyTheatre while watching live tv.
