Zgemma H2 is a very low end box I doubt that it can handle properly IPTV through a VPN.

Not to mention the 30% protocol overhead you have with a VPN.
Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)
Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

I'm not an expert, can You explain me better?
A VPN is a tunnelling protocol. which simply said puts an IP packet inside another IP packet. So the amount of data you send increases, which in turn may increase latency and jitter (delay and variation in the delay). On top of that, most VPN's use data encryption, so you need processor power to encrypt/decrypt the inner IP packet. This is the main reason why most home routers with VPN capacity only support a few VPN's at low throughput speeds.
The CPU component in the SoC (the chip than does everything in an STB) is originally only designed to display the GUI of the box, so it doesn't have much computing power, especially on the cheap low-end models. The new high-end ARM CPU's are better.

Your explanation is very clear and easy to understand!
Thank you very much!

That. And also it actually doesn't reduce the jitter problem in any way.

I don't read PM -> if you have something to ask or to report, do it in the forum so others can benefit. I don't take freelance jobs.
Ik lees geen PM -> als je iets te vragen of te melden hebt, doe het op het forum, zodat anderen er ook wat aan hebben.
