Re: Relating jobs across workflows

Ok. Sounds like setting success will not work as it can either have a custom string OR the correct status of the workflow, not both. I need the genuine success message to tell me if it was successful or to key on conditionals such as "this 4k workflow didn't run because the source video was onl...

Re: Relating jobs across workflows

This is great! I see the hash in the result parameter which will really help. However, as in your screenshot, putting %s_success% after the hash does not seem to append the original success text, and the original text is lost. Any ideas on how to preserve the original success text? I tried creating ...

Relating jobs across workflows

I have a setup where the same file is taken through multiple workflows (720, 1080, 4k). I'm doing this because I want each workflow to have a different priority. I'd like to show job history in a custom status monitor grouped like this: MyFile.mp4 - 720 Version: Complete - 1080 Version: Complete - 4...

Re: Set priority with node

This sounds really great as a first step, thank you! However, I'm still excited about branch level control so I can bring my multiple workflow jobs back into one branching workflow.

Re: Set priority with node

Thank you very much for the reply. For videoA, I do have it setup to encode 360 first. The issue is while the 4K version of videoA is encoding and someone submits videoB. I want the 360 version of videoB to take precedence over the 4K encode of videoA. Also, if "Max active jobs" is set to ...

Set priority with node

I have a workflow that encodes multiple resolutions (360,720,1080,4k) from one input file. Whenever a file is uploaded, I want to get the 360 version encoded ASAP so that the user has something to view. Unfortunately my queue can get filled up with videos which are rendering to 4k and no new videos ...

Re: Virtual Machine / NAS Drive

Thank you for the response! This will be for accepting a wide range of input formats uploaded by content creators. Some may be UHD or HFR but the output will only be HD in a standard codec, file format and dimensions. Currently the volume is low, perhaps 2-4 videos uploaded each day. I'm just lookin...

Re: Virtual Machine / NAS Drive

I am also looking to install this on a virtual machine. Can FFAStrans make use of multiple cores? How much RAM should I be looking at?
