Replace externalPlayer.jsp in /var/subsonic/jetty/<some numbers>/webapp/WEB-INF/jsp/ with this one : http://www.mediafire.com/?u56u58yc5m4f6qx (updated 12/13/2011)

The default bitrate is 1000Kbps, if it doesn't suit your needs (or server bandwidth), find line "var maxBitRate = 1000;" and change it with the value of your choice.

Update :
added the repeat option (See here for possible configurations) thanks to Fenny

Do you also have a solution for using correct video width and height? when a video file is shared? Thanks for the new player

Could you detail what specifically differs between the two players?

I updated externalplayer.jsp, removed "stretching: "fill"" in the player attributes, now the aspect ratio should be correct.

Just a higher bitrate settings (it was absent in the original file and the player set it very low by default) and now the video isn't streched anymore.

does this change anything for video that's not shared, like normal user viewing?

I noticed I can change my maxbitrate in this file and it changes it for users watching video.

Nope, normal user viewing is done by videoPlayer.jsp which already has bitrate settings.

I was wondering because when I watch a video locally, I can get 2500kbps from any file, but my friends on their home computers can only get 1000, I want to set it for them to get 2500kbps also.

they have a capable connection of getting those speeds, yes.

EDIT: I think I got it.

changed it to:
var maxBitRate = 2500;

in videoplayer.jsp

Is there any reason that the SHARING player cannot have the bitrate and time jump options like the standard viewer? I'd really like to see that implemented.

Adding the following line to the "var flashvars" entry will allow the playlist to auto advance until completed.

Code: Select all

repeat:"list"

Nice, thanks.
