I don't know much about this setting, but from what I can tell it is rather touchy and should only be edited by advanced users. -Example Settings: 1024k +Description: Allows you to set the buffer size used by ffmpeg. Increasing this setting will allow higher bitrates during transcoding (see video_br setting), especially when transcoding to HD resolutions. But it may result in pixelation or audio sync issues with some sources. 1024k is fine for the resolutions used by S2 tivos. But you will probably want to increase this setting to 2048k or 4096k if you have an HD tivo. +Example Settings: 1024k, 2048k, 4096k Available In: Server width -- 2.11.4.GIT
