New Transcoding System! 🎉

December 22, 2024

We’ve revamped the transcoding system and introduced some exciting new features:

Faster Transcoding Startup

Previously, transcoding was initiated in a separate container, which took additional time to launch. Now, transcoding starts immediately without delays.

Efficient Caching

Transcoding results are now cached more effectively. Content is only removed when it’s no longer in use, rather than based on a fixed time limit.

In addition, the improved transcoding system has reduced our reliance on Kubernetes cluster components. This paves the way for us to release a single Docker image version of webtor.io early next year!

These are our updates just in time for the New Year and Christmas! Wishing you all happy holidays! 🎄

Thank you for using webtor.io and sponsor it if you wish!
