[Enhancement]: Option to specify the priority for ffmpeg subprocesses. #108

Closed paljsingh closed 3 years ago

paljsingh commented 3 years ago

ffmpeg encoding is cpu heavy, to use it on old hardware, it may be worth to have the subprocesses launched at lowered priority.

paljsingh commented 3 years ago

Added option in etc/impartus.conf : external_process_priority: normal which can be changed to 'low' or 'lowest' and would effectively map to to windows priority or posix nice levels.
