teiva 18 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Chrome OS: 56.0.2924.101 Server: 3.2.7 Prior to this issue... https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/45281-324-video-distorted-on-chrome-os-errors-in-log/?p=425084 One specific movie of the five I tried was affected by this on 3.2.4. Currently on 3.2.7 every movie I stream defaults to transcoding when set to "auto" which takes a serious performance (video playback choppiness) and video quality hit.

Luke 37128 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Hi, no, this is not true. The app is requesting a very low bitrate from the server, under 1mbps. That is the reason for the poor quality. Try customizing your own value for the max streaming bitrate in app settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teiva 18 Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 Thanks @@Luke. For future reference, where in the log specifies the bitrate request from the client? My max streaming bitrate is set to auto on the client, so that should automatically bump it higher than the bitrate on the file right? The server resolved the issue itself. I think it was in a weird state when originally reported because I just literally upgraded the server minutes before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37128 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 The automatic bitrate detection will not be perfect for everyone. if you're in that bucket then you'll want to set your own bitrate. You can see the bitrate selected just by clicking on the in-video settings icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37128 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 On the local network, automatic bitrate now maxes out to a really high value. I would suggest using that as your setting. Enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
