Can you compile Bino from source? If so, you could try to increase
the number of audio and video packets that Bino buffers by default.

Go to src/media_object.cpp lines 1262-1264 and increase the
packet numbers, for example by a factor of 20.

const size_t video_stream_low_threshold = (_is_device ? 1 : 2);

would become

const size_t video_stream_low_threshold = (_is_device ? 1 : 40);

If that works for you, a future version of Bino could do this by
default if the input is a network stream.
