Hi,

 

I wanna know, why is audio transconding, when needed using such low bitrate?

Why is Emby transcoding a normal 1500Kbit or in this Case DTS-HD-MA with 2350kbit to 384kbit?

Why isn't it using a higher bitrate, lets say at least 640kbit AC3 or 756Kbit E-AC3?

Is there anything i can change in the Settings?

 

thanks

Hi, 384 is pretty high, no?

Not really.

Normal ac3 is 640kbit, normal DTS is 1500kbit DTS-HD is 2500 and higher.

384 is not really high the only streaming portal with lower bitrate is Disney+ with german audio with eac3 265kbit.


If it transcodes an original DTS with 1500 to 384 i would not call it high. I would expect to keep the original bitrate and just change the codec to something supported, or at leas to go down to the next available bitrate, so i think the highest ac3 i know would be 640kbit


Where can we adjust this? In any xml file or something?

thanks

There's currently no way. We are continuing to look at improving it. Thanks
