I'd imagine this one will probably be a little to tricky to implement any-time soon
Heck I'm not even sure if there's a suitable codec available that's opensource/free to use
But it would be a really awesome extension to sync if you could transcode into multiple bitrates and then use adaptive streaming between the emby client and the server to pick the highest quality possible at any given moment.
I would think this would be especially useful for mobile clients where the network perform
I know it's been quite awhile since this thread was started, but I'd like to also express my interest for this feature.
I read an interesting intro to using mpeg-dash with several mp4 files, each with its own bitrate. Streaming auto switches between them seamlessly based on bandwidth conditions.

What's the feasibility of adaptive bitrate streaming at this point?
