Local EncodingRequires FFmpeg and FFprobe to be installed on your server. Depending on the size and number of concurrent jobs, video and audio encoding can have significant implications on your server's performance. Make sure you have the right hardware to support your particular requirements. If you don't, consider using one of the 3rd party encoding services in order to offload these tasks from your server.
