Alternate Transcode Server

[hockerd]

Is there a way to specify a server other than the Mezzmo server to perform the transcoding or even pre-transcoding?

Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug,

No - Mezzmo media server on your PC performs all the transcoding on-the-fly whilst streaming and Mezzmo app on your PC does all the pre-transcoding. What is the problem you are having?

No real problem...

My server running Mezzmo isn't fast enough to transcode on the fly so I'm pre-transcoding everything for now but that is very slow.

I have a Fedora Linux machine that has ffmpeg installed and it's very fast. I was just wondering if I could use it to get the files transcoded.

Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug,

Understand. FYI - we do have distributed transcoding as a future feature for Mezzmo where you can take advantage of other computers on your home network.
