Changing the H.264 Level above the device’s recommended value could possibly result in severe playback stability issues or device instability.Selecting the “None” value may be safe based on you media.A H.264 level slightly higher than the recommended is usually safe.A H.264 level below that of the source video will force the video to transcode.Videos use the H.264 Level to define a maximum bitrate for the video as well as decoding parameters. Changing the Maximum H.264 Level global setting can allow many files to Direct Stream or Direct Play.Some devices can handle higher quality transcodes or remuxes. Most devices can handle streams with peak bitrates < 20Mbps. Setting a streaming quality value lower than the content’s bitrate will cause the video to be transcoded.Enabling multi-channel audio in the global settings menu adds support for the associated audio codec during Direct Play and transcoding.Higher streaming quality values have a better chance to allow the content to be Direct Streamed or Direct Played.Keep these tips in mind to help ensure the best experience.
