Hi, I'm trying to transcode HEVC files on the server for my firestick (cheap one without HEVC).

The server is able to transcode successfully. But, the firestick tries to direct stream, instead of requesting a transcode, and fails.

I am able to circumvent this by setting the max bitrate lower than the file but that isn't ideal.

server version: jellyfin/jellyfin docker 10.9.10
firestick app version: jellyfin-androidtv 0.17.4
