Local + remote transcode at same time ? #38

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

I was wondering if I understood correctly how this works :yum:

So If I have 1 big server which do a pretty good work in transcoding but after some time I have too many users for the server and decide to buy another server just to support the transcoding.

Will the main server transcode too ? Or just the new server I'll have bought would transcode ?

You can add 127.0.0.1 to the list of hosts. That way it will distribute the load to both the remote and local servers.

You would be able to use both servers simultaneously.

Oh thank you ! I thought it would only use the second one haha ^^
