converter

The heart of the Triton Media platform

What does this do?

Converter works with events to convert all media to a standardized format using a Redis job queue system: Kue. It is a wrapper around ffprobe and Handbrake.

Advantages to "orchestrating" converting

When used with tritonmedia/autoscaler you're able to scale based on jobs in a queue, and utilize 6 core boxes (say on GKE, and preemptible) to save a lot of money while converting media quickly.
