This is a rather inelegant workaround for livepeer/lpms#168.
CPU transcoding of single-frame segments appears to work in versions of go-livepeer prior to ed8e8c4. So, this change enables the transcoder server as
node.BackupTranscoder
in-orchestrator -transcoder
mode. In production, an old, slightly tweaked version of go-livepeer attaches to that transcode server. When a segment is ingested, transcoding is first attempted using the local Nvidia transcoder. If that results in aZeroSegments
error, it falls back to the remote transcoder.Let's do something better than this real soon 😃 On the other hand...
Nice.
