    Supports downloading a server transcoded file? That’s amazing!

    Would like to see an Fdroid version

      From what I understand its still restrained by the server in real time so downloading a 2 hour movie would still take two hours 🥲

        Is this a bug, or is it actually just limited to the transcode speed? I would love to read the incident/bug report about this.

          It’s limited to the transcode speed, but it’s important to keep in mind that e.g. if you transcode to a lower resolution especially it’ll usually transcode faster than realtime.

            Then it shouldn’t be limited. I can transcode a movie faster then I watch it even at higher quality.

              Right, I just mean if your connection speed is faster than your server can transcode, then the transcode speed will be the bottleneck

      You can just use Obtainium with the gh releases link

        I too would rather have an F-droid version instead of having to use Obtainium. There is additional inherent trust by going through F-droid’s process.
