2022.02.15.0525 - problems with bandwidth limits

Beta Community DVR Beta
#1

Am remote and have internet bandwidth limited to 2Mbps (and server set to 576/2Mbps). Upgraded to .0525 last night (CET) and today am getting pauses and it shows streaming at higher rates than limit. I am limited as I have limited upstream at source.

Watching ch820 from xx.xx.xx.xx
(Remux Running: 3m20s @ 1.01x (60.03fps)): strength=100% quality=100% symbol=100% rate=4.4Mb/sec

had a few pauses but stream seems to be settling in - will see if pauses return. Still streaming rate is exceeding caps.

The setting on the DVR is for viewing via the web browser. Each client maintains its own quality settings independent of that setting in the web UI. Look under Settings > Playback > Streaming Quality to actually change how much bandwidth is used.

Yes - I have that set as well for the client (when I said internet bandwidth limited to 2Mbps I was referring to server setting for specific client).

Try going a bit lower than the limit.
