Server request for reduced bitrate?

I got a question over at the MusicCabinet sub forum: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=11421

I'm having an issue, when I play music using DSub, the app knocks off the last few minutes of the song when I have it reduce the bitrate. If I leave the bitrate on unlimited it works fine. If I go to 128KB, it really fails.

I've compared this against the demo version, and it works fine there. Any suggestions?


I don't use DSub, but I assume from this post that it's possible to control requested bit rate from within the app. (I don't think it's possible to create such a setting at the demo server?)

When the app is configured to use a lower bit rate, how is this passed on in the request to the Subsonic server?

I might have misunderstood something here as I don't use the Subsonic app, though.

Regards

The clients request the bitrate with the option maxBitRate
