One thought (not terribly technical) would be to force it to convert to
any even lower quality temporarily (like 32kbps). If it is transcoding
at some point the sound will be noticeably terrible. Once you can
confirm that, you could then turn the bitrate back up to 128 or whatever
you are happy
I can't see anything relevant in the log (set to Info) after switching
to bitrate 128kbps.
Ditto after I tried switching SB Player to Net Bandwidth = Low.
Then I used Performance Monitor to monitor the VPN virtual adapter and
for each track it peaks at 1Mbps for 20-30sec but then drops to a few

Great now I've got LAME installed and configured the bitrate limiting.
How do I verify the client's bit rate (SB Player)?
The server says it's playing FLAC of course but I can't see an
Is this a duplicate posting ?
You will need a VPN from the Android to the network where your LMS
resides.
Use "SB Player" - Android app on your phone
Set rate limiting inside LMS as stated above
Install Material Skin plugin on LMS if you haven't already
Point Chrome on your phone at http://LMSIP
As Mnyb mentions, you can limit the bitrate for your player in LMS, and
flac will be converted to lower bitrate mp3 on the fly while playing. It
must be the most important thing to do:
LMS -> Settings -> Player -> Choose your player on your Android client +
Audio settings on the two dropdowns in

Hi
I'd like to have occasional access to my LMS from an Android device but
it will most likely be from a spotty wifi connection abroad (or
cellular/mobile data) so I'd like for the data to be economical (given
my library is all flac).
Ive got ZeroTier One VPN loaded onto my LMS Windows machine
