Audio Transcoding and Seasonal Themes

I noticed that if audio is transcoding, whether due to a congested cell network or forced via the playback settings, it still shows under the web dashboard as direct play, when it is not.

 

Also, when are the seasonal themes supposed to be set if we have that option checked? I know there is a Halloween theme, but it hasn't automatically been set as my theme. Are seasonal themes for the WHOLE month of October or just Halloween day?

It's typically just the day of the holiday.

And for the audio transcoding?

Are you sure it doesn't say "Direct Stream" or just "Direct"?

 

We key off of video.  If video is not being converted then we consider it as direct because audio conversions are usually trivial.

Last year it was at least 2 or 3 weeks of October and then again in December.

For the December Holidays, it usually is over several days.  For Halloween, though, it is only a day or two.

 

You can select it manually any time you wish though.

Yes, it does say Direct
