You know what would be beautiful.  Playback rules per device.  I know I suggested something similar previously, but let's take it a step further.

 

 

Scenario 1

Trying to play 4K video on a device that cannot handle it, ie Fire Stick.

 

Create a rule set that will allow playback...

 

If [Audio/Video Dropdown]:Video > [Video Quality Dropdown]:1080p Then

    Transcode [Audio/Video]:Video to [Video Quality]:1080p

        Max Bitrate: None

    Transcode [Audio/Video]:Audio to [Audio Quality]:2 Channel Stereo

    Remove Audio Other Than [Language]: English: Yes

    Include Subtitles: No

 

 

Scenario 2

Take a Fire Stick to a friend's house.

 

Create a rule set that will optimize playback when a device is remote.

 

If Device is Remote (ie Connects via outside IP)

    Transcode [Audio/Video]:Video to [Video Quality]:1080p

        Max Bitrate: 2MB

    Transcode [Audio/Video]:Audio to [Audio Quality]:2 Channel Stereo

    Remove Audio Other Than [Language]: English: Yes

    Include Subtitles: Only if Audio Is Not [Language]: English
