Does new server side setting for direct streaming affect TVE?

Just noticed the new server side setting relating to streaming in the latest beta build. I’m curious if this affects TVE content? If so, is “Direct” a better option than “Stream”?

Direct is exactly what it always did before. All the setting does is force HLS streaming when not away from home or transcoding.

Please visit the setting in the iOS/tvOS app to learn more about it than what’s in the piddly change log.
