Support

App version

Beta

Issue description

Tracks display the original file bitrate when transcoding rather than the expected bitrate set in the transcoding settings. They show as transcoding on the Emby side, however, sometimes even that doesn’t display what’s going on.

Device type

Phone

Media provider

Emby

Steps to reproduce

  1. set transcoding bitrate to 160kb/s
  2. play song
  3. bitrate shows as original FLAC bitrate

I see this has been tagged as fixed? Does that mean my logs were received and you’ve identified the problem?
