Hi @"Walter" The initial buffer seems insufficient. I think, this causes streaming from Dropbox Replay to become unstable at the beginning.

Many thanks @"Walter" Another issue is that Dropbox Reply doesn't seem to pick the best streaming resolution quickly based on internet speeds, especially during the first 20 seconds or so. At the beginning, the optimal resolution changes more frequently. And the resolution sometimes changes suddenly, for example from 480p…
