Hey everyone,
After the optimizer changes to PMS in release 1.2.1, I've noticed that my optimizer tasks are not being paused anymore when someone comes along and transcodes. I loved this feature, and now it's taken away (see release notes below)? Now it's seems, pausing only happens if I reach the limit of allow transcodes. The only problem is, my server is set to unlimited, because I never really know how many users are going to be transcoding at any given point.
Does this mean that optimizing content will NEVER be paused when users are transcodeing under this configuration?
1.2.1 update:
(Streaming Brain) Removed 'Prioritize streaming transcodes' preference. Background transcodes such as Sync, Media Optimizer, and video preview thumbnail generation are always prioritized behind streaming transcodes, and will pause completely if the simultaneous transcode limit is reached.
