How to turn off DLNA buffering? - andrkac - 2020-10-16

As above - is it possible to turn off DLNA buffering?
I have kodi ( libreelec, x86_64) box and pc (running linux mint) in the same room, and incidentally I want to see, let's say, youtube video on pc and transmit audio to kodi box and it's speakers.
It works almost well, unfortunately audio is few second late, I guess because of some buffering.
May I turn it off somehow? I know, that it can be risky, but we are talking about two machines which are really close. 4-5 meters of 1Gb ethernet with Gigabit switch in the middle. So I believe I can do it here if this is technically possible.
To clarify - I don't want to turn off buffering globally - I have other media on other machines (in far locations, SMB), listening radio etc. Just and only for DLNA.
