Change the max video bit rate

Unread post by samwiseg0 »

I am looking for a way to change the max bit rate that a video can go to. I can see from the developer tools on the browser that it is maxing out at 3000. I cannot for the life of me find where this is set.

Does anyone know where I can change this?

Thanks

No, but you could check this transcoding-settings-page on your madsonic server:

Code: Select all

i have messed with the settings on that page and have not really gotten anywhere... I have changed the %b to be a large static number and it does not seem to honor it when it is changed.

ffmpeg -ss %o -t %d -i %s -s %wx%h -v 0 -b:v %bk -maxrate %bk -bufsize 256k -flags -global_header -map 0:v:0 -map 0:%k -ac 2 -f mpegts -c:v libx264 -preset superfast -c:a aac -b:a 96k -strict -2 -threads 8 -copyts -

any other ideas?
