remotely connected via openvpn - local but need it to be treated as remote

Ok. So this 141. address is your cellphone? I see the connection and I see Infuse report that playback stopped. I don't see the logs saying it started, which includes determination whether the client is local or not and whether to transcode.

I don't have any Apple devices and have never used Infuse. But I am interpreting the logs as Infuse directly accessing the media, perhaps via the "download" endpoint instead of the playback endpoints. This means there are no checks for "locality", no application of bit rate controls, no checks for client compatibility and transcoding.

If you used Swiftfin or Jellyfin Mobile, it should properly apply bit rate controls.
