Source error when dropping the resolution and quality too far.
Source error when dropping the resolution and quality too far.
I get source error when I try to drop the resolution and quality too far.
I have hardware transcoding activated. Jellyfin is running on a docker container on ubuntu server. When I try to reduce the resolution and mbps too far I get source error. E.g. with a 2160p source file I can transcode to 1080p 20 mbps but if I try 720 or 1080 10mbps, source error happens. Is this a server side thing or a client side thing? How do I fix this?
Which client are you using? Are you switching the max bitrate during playback, or while it's paused?
I'm using the android client. Default settings. I've tried switch the nitrate when paused and also while playing, bur same problem.
In order to see if it's client-side or server side, let's try another client. Try installing Jellyflix and see if it gives you the same issue when you lower the bitrate
