speechles 1911 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I know what both issues are. I'll take care of them tonight Sweet. Just purchased the app. The update will be hitting play store copy? So I can just sit back and let the auto-update joy happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crestj 67 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Could someone please tell me the default LAN\Wifi bitrate? I've changed mine and now get wildly different performance from my videos. Some play fine, some take ages to load and some start but the transcode is killing my server (HP Micro Server). TBH I don't really understand how to set this bitrate properly if anyone can explain that as well. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redshirt 1487 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 The default is 6.0 mb/s for wifi and 850 kb/s for cellular. You want to set the value as high as possible, while still remaining lower than what the network connection can sustain. If you are connected to cellular which is capable of 1.4 mb/s (for example) and have your cellular bitrate set to 10.0 mb/s... The server is going to send a 10.0 mb/s stream unaware that the network can't maintain that speed. That would cause the client to have to stop and buffer constantly. The client takes the source files bitrate into consideration when requesting streams from the server as well. If you have your cellular bitrate set to 1.4 mb/s and the source file bitrate is 4.0 mb, then the client is going to request a transcoded stream of 1.4 mb/s. Even if the file is a supported codec. The startup time is dependent on whether files are being transcoded, stream-copy or direct-streamed. Transcoding being the slowest. The reason being is that the server doesn't start streaming the video until a certain amount of segments have been created. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crestj 67 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Thanks Redshirt, looks like I'll need to test my Wifi out a bit to determine the optimum setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLinford 54 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 MediaBrowser Android client is now in the play store I'll write a full blog post about it this evening and provide thoughts as to where the client is going to go from here in terms of features and such. The play store link is here. I'd like to thank everybody for being a part of this ride. I've had a blast and I hope you guys have too. Auto-update here we come All beta/RC users must uninstall this client before installing from the store. Release apps are signed with a different security key than dev builds and the installer will complain if you try to install over top of the RC. Well done!

CBers 6742 Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) @@Redshirt - if you have a user profile with the "Hide this user from login screens" option set, there's no option to manually login using it in the app, like there is in the Dashboard. Is it possible to add this? Also, I'm unable to uncheck the "Stay signed in" option. TIA. Edited November 19, 2013 by CBers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redshirt 1487 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 At some point. It's on my to-do list, but not at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanbuff 837 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Hi Red, I'm finding that when sorting my 'Movies' by 'Date Added' and then toggling between Ascending and Descending - - the order randomly changes. This doesn't seem right. Are you able to confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redshirt 1487 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I just tried, I'm not able to confirm that. Are you seeing it on other clients? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasoon 9 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Red is there going to be another way to purchase the app? I have a Nabi 2 which is an android device but as its aimed at kids it doesn't have google play store installed on it, when the app was in development I had to side load it onto the Nabi 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Nabi 2 which is an android device but as its aimed at kids it doesn't have google play store installed on it, when the app was in development I had to side load it onto the Nabi 2 @ Jasoon - you could try "This" to root and install Google Play. Once Google Play is installed on the Nabi and you've logged into it using your Google Play account, Google play will show up on your device list and MediaBrowser is an accepted device.

CBers 6742 Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) You should be able to install the Play Store apk without rooting. Use something like ES FILE EXPLORER to back up the Google Play Services on your Android device, copy the backed-up apk to the Nabi and install.

It's been a long process but certainly worth the work with the excellent product you have released. So many enhancements since the early pre-beta version and it has always just gotten better and better! I'm only a tinsey-bit upset because all my devices have one version or another of Media Browser on it so I can't just blast through the Google Play store and click "Install on all devices!!!"
