It depends on the playback device.

The transfer mode content of unknown length, content is transmitted portions with indicating the length portions, at the end of the transfer length is transmitted portion 0.

So for an LG-BD390 would Chunk Transer Mode be beneficial or have no effect?

What is the normal setting for the buffer? My server has 8GB of RAM. I don't care about 2, 4 or 8 MB or RAM.

Most of the 720P movies have around 8,000 Kbps bit rate, or 1MBps. I set the buffer to 4096.

Is this too high? Too low? I don't really notice much difference. But maybe I need to go higher, like 8192???

Data buffer size is a portion of which server reads from the content and transmits to the device. I do not think that high values have meaning.
