video convertion overloading the server

[hostonnet]

Set Video convertion to Batch Processing.

Admin > Settings > Miscellaneous > Video Processing:

Make sure cron job is set.

If it set up to batch, and put a interval like 10 minutes to the cron and during these 10 minutes many videos were uploaded what will gonna happen?

All the videos will be converted at the same time when the cron runs or it will be one by one?

[hostonnet]

When crop runs, it convert one video. If 10 video uploaded, they are marked pending processing, then it get converted one by one each time cron job runs. So for 10 video, if cron job runs every 10 minutes, it take 100 minute to finish the convertion of all the videos. For videos downloaded from third party site (admin import, bulk import feature), it need to run cron job two times, first for downloading the video, then to convert the video.
