I'm encountering an issue playing live TV (iptv) over DLNA when QSV transcoding is enabled. Client used is VLC / upnp and selecting a channel will cause stuttering on older devices. It appears the bitrate is being converted from 8Mbps to 140Mbps. If I enable VAAPI transcoding, then the bitrate is 4-5 Mbps, but I'd rather leverage the hardware transcoding of QSV. QSV works fine for other transcodes but for some reason playing LiveTV over DLNA forces transcoding and creates these high bitrates. Anyone seen this issue or have a workaround?
Ideally I'd prefer not to transcode live TV over DLNA but I haven't been able to disable this. I have a few older Android tablets that don't play nice with the Jellyfin app but DLNA works fine.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks.
