Does jellyfin have a default unchangeable maximum bit-rate? (lemmy.world)

I find myself trying to stream a heavy movie, on a local network but it transcodes it due to the original file exceeding maximum bitrate. I've checked the settings but the only one which seem to control this is set at 0 which is unlimited (i guess). Is there any way to bypass this limit if so? The overall bitrate of the movie in question is 65Mb/s Thanks.

Transcoding is requested by the client I think, if the client needs a lower quality jellyfish will to the conversation
