Transcode to the minimal bandwidth?

[depawlur]

Hi,

I'm really sorry if this a repeated question, but I didn't find a clear answer.
I am using a headless linux based setup and I'm trying to transcode to a lower bitrate of video and audio to be able to stream over wifi to a browser on another computer.

I've been trying to tweak UMS.conf under maximum_bitrate even tried automatic_maximum_bitrate and audio_bitrate. I tried to use force_transcode_for_extensions = *

Can anybody please help me with the test config that will decrease the quality to almost a minimum or maybe even transcode to a lower resolution?

thank you for your help.

oh yes, I wanted to note that some videos stutter and it's bad and some videos play almost fine.
I use a pretty OK computer (i5, 4gb ram)

I played around with renderers and I changed max resolution to like
MaxVideoWidth = 320
MaxVideoHeight = 240

and I don't think it was transcoding it to that resolution

here's the source video that I'm trying to play without stuttering as a sample: http://amvnews.ru/index.php?go=Files&fi ... 8182&alt=1

Where is the renderer for web client found? or what's the name of it?

Thanks

Web renderer is not a UPnP client. Hence it doesn't follow the normal renderer configuration.

Is there a way I can change the Web renderer configuration?

So nobody can help me? Can I change the web rendered configuration?

Thanks

There is no transcoding option available for web renderer as it is NOT a UPnP client. It simply uses HTML5 <video> tag to play video or flowplayer. In either case, the formats supported are limited.

I thought it does some transcoding, as these videos don't play in the browser as raw files. But they do via UMS. So I figured there are settings that are used for web transcoding.
