ffmpeg, kill, cpu, again
Sorry to ask the same question I saw being asked a number of times on these forums.
I could not find a real answer to it.
I understand that somehow, it is 'by design' to avoid stopping ffmpeg even if the user stops playing the video.
1. What is the purpose of keeping ffmpeg running? Why is it 'by design' like this?
Please don't just say 'is by design', that doesn't help. If there is an explanation in some other place, just send me the link please.
2. Is there a way of doing it automatically when the video stops? (no, don't say killall ffmeg, it not automatic and I am in front of my tv, not ssh-ing into my server, come on)
3. why is it that ffmpeg takes up the whole cpu power? 1 core or 10, seems that it always uses 100% available cores/threads.
Is there a way to 'nice' the use of ffmpeg in serviio? To avoid using the whole cpu?
Thanks,
Chris
