This feature is available on Kodi 20 and above, on older Kodi versions the quality of the streams is closely dependent on the settings available.
This setting allows you to select the way in which the quality of the audio/video streams is chosen, but could be also overridden by the video add-on being used.
- Designed for self-adapting stream quality based on available network bandwidth and to fit the screen resolution
- Allows smooth playback of a video without waiting for the buffer to load
- Designed more for testing purposes, but could be used also to have a fixed stream quality
- The stream quality is fixed, a stable network connection is required to avoid buffer loading
- Allows you to change stream quality from Kodi OSD settings
- The initial stream quality is choosen by taking into account the screen resolution and can be limited by resolution max setting
