FFAStrans forum

I have setup multiple workflows, some single encoders that then export to one directory, others have multiple encoders that all export to the same directory. FFAStrans picks up the files from the monitored folders (or receives them if I manually submit them) without issue. Similarly, it encodes them...

Adjustments made, different source file being encoded. This time it is a much longer (1+ hour) file. I'm encountering the same performance issues as before (e.g. CPU Usage is only around 12%-20% and the workflows are each processing at the A/V Media stage at around 13fps). This is on a 3.4GHz Intel ...

I knew that something was out of place in the MPEG-2 encoder. I've been trying some different settings and that was just my most recent, albeit quick and dirty attempt at some fixes - with obvious problems.

Let me make those adjustments and see how it performs with a different source file.

I will send the Workflows and Processors. With regards to the specifics: 1 - All four workflows are accessing the same file, but there is nothing else operating on the file at the same time. We're not playing it back, copying it, or anything like that. It is at rest. 2 - It's not on an SSD, but the ...

If I run each workflow individually, 3 of the 4 complete their processing without issue. It appears that the one that is failing has some sort of issue with the encode settings which I am trying to debug. EDIT: Also, it appears that when running one encode at a time, the CPU usage is around 90%-96%....

I have multiple workflows setup to watch the same folder for input files. When a new file is placed into the input folder, all of the workflows (there are 4 of them) begin their processing as they should. They go through all of their processing steps, but while encoding, the CPU usage hover around 1...

Thanks!

That's completely understandable. Just wanted to explore the options.

Is it possible to use the variables in the ACCEPT FILES and DENY FILES input boxes to conditionally accept/ignore specific folder names that files reside in? For example: Monitor - "F:\Root" for files to encode, DENY files in "F:\Root\Encoded" Monitor - "F:\Root" for fi...
