The &preloadbitrate flag can be used to change the pre-load target bitrate for scenes. You can set this higher or lower, or set to 0 to disable pre-loading all together. I'd strongly avoid setting this to 0, as it can cause the video to stall out all together.
Videos not yet added to will have the audio bitrate drop to 16-kbps. Scene 1 has always been special, as the video pre-loads there, so the quality ramps up immediately and guests appear immediately. Other scenes (>1) or custom scenes will need to ramp up from 0 bitrate, which can take some time to load and ramp up, but this is needed - can't have every scene pre-loaded else things get overloaded.
You can override all this logic I'm using for pre-loading bitrates of videos in scenes now with &preloadbitrate=500 or whatever, where the value is in kbps.
0 disables preloading the scene.
-1 allows for unlocked bitrates during preloading.
