Supports downloading a server transcoded file? That's amazing!

Would like to see an Fdroid version

You can just use Obtainium with the gh releases link

I too would rather have an F-droid version instead of having to use Obtainium. There is additional inherent trust by going through F-droid's process.

FYI Jellyflix also supports that

[-] bonn2@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago

Findroid also recently added this

Transcoding and transcoded downloads does not seem to be merged yet, altough there's a working PR.

Ah yeah I forgot I was running the bleeding version, either way it will probably be stable soon ish

From what I understand its still restrained by the server in real time so downloading a 2 hour movie would still take two hours 🥲

Is this a bug, or is it actually just limited to the transcode speed? I would love to read the incident/bug report about this.

[-] entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 years ago

It's limited to the transcode speed, but it's important to keep in mind that e.g. if you transcode to a lower resolution especially it'll usually transcode faster than realtime.

Then it shouldn’t be limited. I can transcode a movie faster then I watch it even at higher quality.

Right, I just mean if your connection speed is faster than your server can transcode, then the transcode speed will be the bottleneck
