+  * **Remote Access.**  When selected, Mezzmo Android will switch from using Mezzmo server's local IP address to it's remote IP address so that you can access Mezzmo server from outside your home.
+  * **Enable Limits.**  When selected, Mezzmo Android lets you control the video bitrate and video resolution of video streaming from a Mezzmo server.
+    * **Max video bitrate.**  Move the slider to a video bitrate value that your internet connection can handle.  This value tells Mezzmo server to deliver video files under this maximum video bitrate setting.
+    * **Resolution.**  Change the maximum width and height of videos so that transcoding and streaming works in real-time without stuttering. This value tells Mezzmo server to deliver video files using this maximum resolution setting.
