Allow switching of different quality versions during playback

Also, I would like to be able to switch between different versions while playback on Android. I have a Pixel 9a, which means my client is recent, I guess. IIRC, we can switch between different versions on other client like Web or Playstation 4 Pro. (I might be wrong on the specific clients, but I’m prettty sure that such feature is available for other clients.)

You can pick to play a specific version in the android app…

I meant “while playback”; while I’m watching.

I’m saying this because I’m having some difficulties these days with versions switching between each other without me knowing it. :sweat_smile: I’m afraid to explain any further, because it would hijack this thread.

Adding such feature would help me to troubleshoot, I guess. It would also make “downgrading” from UHD Blu-ray to regular Blu-Ray easier whenever the available bandwidth decreases.

Pretty sure such a feature is not available on any client. You can adjust the quality which will trigger transcoding of the file you’re streaming, but it won’t switch playback to a different file.

If you’re after a feature like that then you should probably start a new thread because that’s a completely different thing to what is in this ‘feature suggestion’.

I moved this into its own thread. You seem to be looking for something different (switch version during playback vs. version selection/popup on start of video)

So… I recently tried Plezy and discovered that one can switch between different versions during playback. That’s neat, even though that’s not a priority. :sweat_smile:
