Current Jobs

The Current Jobs module provides comprehensive management and monitoring capabilities for live transcoding operations. This interface displays live event jobs created within the last 30 days and all linear live jobs, with advanced filtering and control functions.

The Current Jobs listing displays App Name, Stream Name, Created, Started, Status, Recording, and Function Operation for each active job.

Filter jobs by operational status using the Status dropdown:

  • To Live: Jobs prepared for streaming
  • Live: Currently active streams
  • Forbidden: Restricted or blocked jobs
  • End: Completed streaming jobs
  • All: Display all job statuses

Recording List Display​

Recordings are displayed in descending order by Started time, showing:

  • Started: Recording initiation timestamp
  • Ended: Recording completion timestamp
  • Status: Recording operational state
  • URL: Recording file location in file archive
  • Function Actions: Available operations
Recording Merge Operations​

Combine multiple recordings from a single live job:

  1. Select checkboxes for recordings to merge
  2. Click the Merge button
  3. System processes merge operation
  4. Notification sent upon completion

Transcoding Performance Monitoring​

Monitor transcoding operations with four performance indicators:

  • Transcoding Speed: Processing velocity metrics
  • CPU Cost: Processing resource utilization
  • Output Bitrate: Transcoded stream bitrate
  • Output FPS per 5s: Frame rate output metrics
