How to transcode WAV to MP3 120k automatically on demand - Sadistic Angela - 2023-07-02
I can't seem to get it to do this. I work at a place with very limited bandwidth, and I'd hate to have to duplicate the entire library in MP3 120k...

You set this on the client side.
Settings > Playback > Music Quality

Yeah, that setting doesn't do anything. It's still sending the full WAV file.

Can you attach your jellyfin server logs corresponding to your external music playback?
Also, what client and device are you using?

Here is what my server logs show when I have it set to 128Kbps for Internet Quality in Jellyfin on my Android phone.

What are you seeing that makes you think you are receiving the raw WAV?
