Distributed transcoder

Open onedr0p opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Hi :wave:

Major architecture decision here, but it would be nice to scale dim or at least distribute the transcoder portion so you could have multiple machines able to pick up the work of transcoding a media file. I believe doing this sooner instead of later would make it much more easier to implement than further down the road.

Related projects that try to do this for JellyFin or Plex:

  • https://github.com/munnerz/kube-plex
  • https://github.com/joshuaboniface/rffmpeg

Thanks!

Very excited for this project and this would be an immensely positive QoL addition for HA deployments!

I think that'd be a really cool addition as well.

It would be great to be able to utilize multiple servers e.g. without gpu for the same video that is split in e.g. 30 sec, transcoded and returned to the original server to serve it e.g. to the browser.
