My MP1 installation works perfectly, except if I transfer large files to my server.

Network setup.
HD Homerun Quad tuner - connected to 1G switch
The 1G switch connects to most of my devices.
The 1G switch is connected to a 10G switch
The 10G switch connects to the server, my office PC and my workstation
The server is also the TV server
Server Spec.
CPU i5-10600 6 core
RAM 48GB
Network Card: Asus XG-C100C
Time shift folder is on an NVME drive separate to OS
Recordings are on a SATA drive connected to motherboard
Multiple other drives are connected by SAS
Windows 10 Pro

Issue.

When copying large files from my workstation to the SAS drives live TV gets severe pixelation, very much like a bad TV signal. Stop the file transfer and its picture perfect Any recordings at the time are affected, and thus will never playback cleanly. Right now I'm copying three 78GB files to three of the SAS drives, total network speed is in the region of 2 to 3Gbps, on a 10G card, so plenty of bandwidth left.

I've tried adding QOS for TVservice.exe, and the IP address of the tuner, it didn't make any difference.

If I run the HD Homerun app on my office PC, the picture is perfect, if I run the HD Homerun app on the server, there is some pixelation, but no where near as bad as on Mediaportal on a separate PC, the HD Homerun app does use a lot less bandwidth than MP. I can't try running MP on the server as its only set up as a server.

If I watch a recording whilst the transfer is taking place this is perfect, if I carry out a recording whilst the transfer is taking place, then the recording is affected.

I've had this issue for a long time, and have just avoided moving large files in the evening, but I'd like to get it fixed.

Any ideas please?
