Playback issues due to hibernating Synology

Hi, I recently replaced an old self built NAS which never hibernated with a Synology which does (and uses much less energy when asleep).

My tvOS Infuse library is fed by Jellyfin with library mode on.

I’ve never had playback issues in Infuse with the old NAS, I imagine because the hard drives didn’t idle.

With the Synology, if it’s hibernating and I open Infuse, navigate to a movie/show, hit play - I get a spinning orb for about 5 seconds followed by the message ‘An error occurred loading this content’:

If I close the message and hit play again it loads fine. I assume because the Synology was woken with the first request.

I’ve seen other similar threads which have suggested adding the server MAC address into the Advanced section of the Share to send a WOL request. But this isn’t available for Jellyfin shares.

Could the timeout be extended/add a retry on the first play attempt to allow the Synology to wake up and serve the content? Or any other ideas?
