Per Host Bit Rate Settings #1437

Open BentHaase opened 1 month ago

BentHaase commented 1 month ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The current client setup does not allow setting individual bit rates for different hosts, offering only a single, global bit rate configuration.

Describe the solution you'd like Introduce an option to set per-host overrides for the bit rate, allowing tailored configurations based on each host's network requirements.

Describe alternatives you've considered Currently, the bit rate must be manually adjusted before connecting to different hosts, depending on the environment's network constraints.

Additional context Some hosts are only accessible via WAN connections, making the global bit rate setting (e.g., 80 Mbit/s for LAN hosts) unsuitable for WAN environments. Manually adjusting the bit rate for each connection is cumbersome. A per-host bit rate setting or, even better, a per-host 'advanced configuration override' would eliminate this hassle and offer more flexibility in managing network / general settings across hosts.

I'm about to make this request, and it’s not just about bitrate settings. It also includes things like resolution, whether the mouse is optimized for gaming, the orientation of the bathtub-style mouse, and so on. All these options should be configured based on different host systems or specific needs, to ensure compatibility ac

I was about to make the exact some request. I have multiple clients: some being dedicated bare metal gaming machines some being VM's where Moonlight is used as a better version of Microsoft's Remote Desktop.

And with the current setup I either have to try set all the settings to be a middleground between both usecases or I have to just accept that my settings will be suboptimal for one or the other.
