Large transcodes don't get cached #15

Closed anacrolix closed 11 months ago

Transcodes that are larger than 1GB will fail to cache (in the dev build), and be restarted in a loop.

To be honest, I didn't want it to cache on the server, which would take up a lot of space.

Unfortunately it's a requirement for streaming directly to browsers using HTTP range requests for video sources. There are other ways to do it but they require custom players on the client side.

Per the other issue I'll make transcoding previews optional.
