Quality settings/description

Streambaby allows for the selection of a "quality" at which to stream a file to the tivo. If enabled, you will be able to select the quality on the "play" screen. Only qualities that are less than the original will be displayed. (So you can't select a bitrate that is higher than the original, as it would serve no purpose)

Quality selection is disabled by default. To enable use of qualities in streambaby, use the following ini setting:
quality.select (default=false)

Set to true to enable quality selection in streambaby

All qualities other than Same force transcoding.

The possible qualities are:

• Same
  Stream the file in the original quality
• Highest, High, medium-high, Medium, medium-low, low, lowest
