Hi there,

is it possible to add the option for 6 Mbps in “Streaming Quality” settings,  
starting from 64Kbps going up to Original, there is in the middle 2,3,4, & 8. - Jumping 6 in the count.  
for me for example i have a 10-Mbps upload, and a friend of mine over-seas is connected to my server.  
he has no problem while setting it to 4 Mbps, but when trying to go 8 Mbps, Buffering …

6 Mbps can be perfect for him - this way he could even enjoy 1080p Content.

Thank you!

Would it not be better for all to have a dynamic setting? and even one higher than 20Mbps? That why it appases everyone from those with low speeds to people with high speed, take for example, currently i have 250/250, sooon to be gigabit/gigabit.

Best would be a option for the server admin to add custom Bitrates and remove/edit currently existing bitrates.
