Encoder

CLI

Currently, only ffmpeg is supported. It needs to be installed on the system, though it is included in the Docker image.

IO Redirection

When ffmpeg is invoked, by default the output is not displayed in the console of the clustercode process. You can enable it to debug problems with a profile or video file, however, the REST API will not be able to get the progress information.

Default file format

This is the file extension of converted files. Be aware that you need to specify the container format in the profiles. An .mkv file extension does not make it playable if there’s mp4 in it.
