justinrh 260 Posted April 9, 2022 Posted April 9, 2022 Web app client settings > Playback I don't understand the logic of these choices. Only one can be selected at a time, right? How does this work? Only bitrate is important, not video resolution, right? 1) If I select "1080p - 30Mbps", what will 4k vids play at? 720p vids? 2) Other clients don't have a resolution criteria - they give bitrate only. Why? (Makes sense to me, but I gotta ask since the web app is different.)
Luke 42080 Posted April 9, 2022 Posted April 9, 2022 HI, you are selecting the maximum quality that your device and network connection can handle.
justinrh 260 Posted April 9, 2022 Author Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) Relate that to question #1. So 4k vids would play at 1080p? What bitrate would 720p play at? Why is the web app different? Edited April 9, 2022 by justinrh
Luke 42080 Posted April 9, 2022 Posted April 9, 2022 They both would play at a maximum of whatever you've selected, but not greater than the original source. In other words we don't try to upscale.
justinrh 260 Posted April 9, 2022 Author Posted April 9, 2022 Can I please have a direct answer to make sure I understand? If I select "1080p - 30Mbps", 4k would play at 1080p/30Mbps? Yes or no? Why is the web app different?
