Max network bandwith option per device

I have different dlna renderers on different networking gear (powerline, wifi N) so the speed varies but I know the upper end of what they can handle, so i wish I could set a max bandwidth per device like:

20 Mbps for Sony BD player
30 Mbps for ps3

ps3mediaserver has the ability to set a threshold of max bandwidth, but not per device.

Actually some router have this capability called QoS for the different devices that is connected to it.

  Code:

Quality of Service (QoS) is a feature of routers and switches which prioritizes traffic so that more important traffic can pass first. The result is a performance improvement for critical network traffic. QoS equipment is useful with VoIP phones or in LANs with high volumes of local traffic.



Here is a link that explains it on a netgear router.

But that will not make a difference if serviio is transcoding a file with higher bitrate than the renderers wireless bridge can support.

You can limit the maxbitrate in the profiles.xml file.

  Code:

Video - defines video transcoding definitions; can be one or more, with the elements order being taken in consideration (the first definition that matches a file is used)

 

Attributes:

targetContainer - compulsory; name of container to transcode into; possible values: asf, mpeg (MPEG2PS), mpegts (MPEG2TS)
targetVCodec - optional; name of video codec to transcode into or omit this attribute to keep the video stream as it is; possible values: mpeg2video (MPEG2), wmv2 (WMV9)
targetACodec - optional; name of audio codec to transcode into or omit this attribute to keep the audio stream as it is; possible values: aac, ac3, mp2, mp3, lpcm, wmav2


maxVBitrate - optional; max. video bitrate [kbit/sec] or omit to keep the same quality


aBitrate - optional; audio bitrate [kbit/sec] to use when transcoding audio track, default is 192
aSamplerate - optional; audio sample rate [Hz] to use when transcoding audio track, default is 48000
forceVTranscoding - optional; if true, the video stream will always be transcoded even in cases when in could just be rewrapped; default is false
forceStereo - optional; if true, audio transcoding involves forcing number of channels to 2; default is false
