Serviio

Hi,

I think I need the ablitiy to set ffmpeg's -bt and -b parameters. This limits the video bit rate, which help reduce the file size and bandwidth...

Provided you use Serviio 1.0, use the following (1000 = 1Mbit/s)


Have a look in application-profiles.xml for examples, both MediaBrowser and ServiiGo use it to deliver lower quality video, you can also drop the resolution at the same time.

I use that already. I think I need the -b and -bt options as well. Which java class sets the ffmpeg options? I assume that decompiling the code for patches is still okay?

Why would you need those? v:b should be what you need - unless you want to specify b:a as well (b = b:v + b:a).

You can decompile for your personal use, class is FFmpegWrapper

When I use those switches, my player appears to handle the file correctly. I want to decompile the file and then add the switches to see if it works correctly. I'll post if it makes a difference either way.

SOLVED with 1.0.1. See viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7209 for all the details
