i have a pretty large network im moving to jr and even after setting it to 5 workers the audio conversion process was painfully slow
now i see videos have not only a setting for the number of workers but a priority setting as well
i know the thinking is vids are typicaly much larger files so a higher priority might be needed for conversion but if your alowing unlimited music uploads the queue can be overwhelmed and take days to catch up without alowing a higher priority setting on dedicated servers

See my followup here:

https://www.jamroom.net/ning-to-jamroom/forum/questions-about-jamroom/17049/video-watermarked-and-coversion-questions

basically if you're seeing slow audio conversion on a dedicated server, something is wrong with your server config (or your CPUs are really slow).

Thanks!

the cpus are fast and were noyt showing much use the servers got 8 3.2ghz and during the conversion process averaged about 0.01
at highest was 0.17 and that i think was just during my 200+ gig ftp upload
memory averaged 15-17% never going over 20

1 thing when installing the script and seeing i needed ffmpeg the server admins installed it at a diferent location then the sys test looked for but then paul i think installed a 2nd copy within the install directory somewhere

he also installed the cloud modules wich caused alot of issues
now that the queues clear maybe i should re-enable the cloud modules for testing/

Jamroom will use the one it is shipped with, which is recommended. If you have 8 3.2ghz CPUs then your audio conversions should fly.

Delete all the cloud modules from your server - they are not going to work.

Hope this helps!
