transcoding profile bitrate setting

13Aug2009

why is it not possible to add a bitrate above 800000b/s ?
wouldn't it be recommended to change this so that high definition
streams can be offered also.

Re: transcoding profile bitrate setting

In the database there is a table transcode_mapping where we defined some sensible parameter ranges voor ffmpeg. Mediamosa was build with the idea of allowing more applications to use it at the same time, and we had to create a method to limit the ffmpeg parameters.

You can edit the record (1) in the transcode_mapping (max_value) for higher values. I agree we should allow a higher bitrate for mediamosa out of the box...

Re: transcoding profile bitrate setting

Or maybe it should be possible to change the max value from somewhere in the config.
Its not a problem to change it in the db off course but a value of 800000b/s seems to little
anyway :-).
