Audio remote streaming quality (Mobile)

[Ninko 78]

Hi, 

I'm not sure if this is me not understanding this setting or it's a bug and not working correctly.

I have this setting on 192kbps, yet when on my mobile data connection, it still directly plays music above this quality with no transcoding.

Have I misunderstood? 

Thanks

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Here's a few screenshots and emby log showing what I mean.

Try setting the other remote to 192 kbps.

@NeminemDoesn't that setting mean, away from local network but connected to WiFi, not mobile data - setting below it?

HI, yes that is correct.

Then the option I'm referring to isn't working then.

Hi, what makes you think it isn't working?

[Ninko 78]

No transcoding occurs.

Please read the thread from the start.

Did you try what was suggested?

[Ninko 78]

I did, and that didn't appear to work either.

[Luke 42282]

How did you determine that?
