Server Version#: 1.18.3.2156  
Player Version#: 4.30.2

A feature to limit the bandwidth and quality of each user would be good.

Example:

User 1: max quality: 1080p hight & 10Mbits maximum  
User 2: max quality: 720p low & 5Mbits maximum  
User 3: max quality illimited & 50Mbits maximum

I think this feature would be very appreciated by users 😉

Now that the base features exist, I am sure many of us think it would be nice if per stream limit could be moved in to the users → friends → restrictions panel just the same way library access is. It logically would seem to fit there, since that is where the other restrictions reside. I want to restrict certain…
