Birtrate Change

Strange increase in consumption of disk space noticed

Size of chunks seen to increase from 2-3Mb to 5-6Mb

This happened at Exactly (or almost exactly) 4:00 PM

From the top of the hour you can see the chunks increasing. These are the first 5 from 4:00PM

I read in the chat that the recorded stream didn't have this problem

It seems the recorded stream did not have this anomaly.

The Recorded stream had a different encoding profile then the live stream so i guess i am not surprised.

But this is very curious!
