-[b]Bandwidth[/b]
-Steam Link dynamically selects a bandwidth that favors a smooth, low latency experience based on your current network conditions and frame rate when set to "Auto". If your content has a low frame rate, Steam Link will automatically adjust the bandwidth.
-
-Manually increasing bandwidth beyond the default may cause jitter and frame drops. Decreasing it may yield a smoother experience but at the cost of more video artifacts.
-
-As the Steam Link team obtains additional data and improves the video encode and decode, we will continue to tune and improve the "Automatic" settings.
