Hi,
Is there a full documentation of all transcoding options available?
I build a "/video/:/transcode/segmented/start.m3u8" URI, m3u8 is generated, and my player plays the stream. However the video is transcoded every time.
for example:

I have set these client capabilities:
* X-Plex-Client-Capabilities => protocols=http-live-streaming,http-streaming-video-720p,http-streaming-video-1080p;videoDecoders=h264{profile:high&resolution:1080&level:51};audioDecoders=aac,ac3{channels:6}
The player has ffmpeg as backend, so there shouldn't be a "height" or "bitrate" problem. I just need a HLS stream with h264.
Which options must be set to tell the transcoder to "direct stream" the video?
