Hi!

I try to setup the new Download functionality which replaced the old “sync”. When I download to my Android Devices (official APP) I can not set the quality. It seems that it just downloads in original quality.

My question is where and how to setup the resolution and bitrate for downloads. It didn’t find it in the player app or the server settings. I have lifetime subscription which should allow me to use the Download…

Thx in advance!

It’s in the settings menu: [Download for Android Mobile | Plex Support](https://support.plex.tv/articles/download-android/#toc-3)
