I am having a big problem as I use my system to playback and edit video files. The problem is that I can play a video file fine, but if I try to skip forward or backward, the video just freezes and I have to force quit the app that is playing the video. I have experienced this with VLC, 5K PLayer and Leawo Blu-Ray Player and it happens every time. It doesn't matter if I use the app's skip forward/backward buttons or if I drag the time line. Either way the video freezes and I can't get anything to play or even stop.
The video files are mostly DVD/Blu-Ray in mkv files but I also experience the same with trailers which range from mp4, mov, flv and mkv. This will be a total deal breaker for me if I can't resolve it as I do this at least weekly. If I try the same files in Windows and VLC, it works just fine every time. I am really loving the Mac OS so far so I am hopeful this can be fixed.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: I should note that all these video files are on a network share and this is on High Sierra 10.13.6.
