what is the simultaneous video transcode streams mean? Is it for using multiple CPU threads for the transcoding or does it mean that it will let my computer work on multiple videos/users at once?
It’s a cap you can set. Once the server is using that maximum of parallel transcodes (multiple videos / users at once), it’ll not allow any more (resulting in some error message on a client attempting to play a file that requires transcoding.
Of course this will not increase the number of videos your CPU can transcode in parallel.
Edit:
From the related support article
Maximum simultaneous video transcode
Set the maximum number of transcoding sessions that you will allow simultaneously. For instance, if you only want to allow two transcodes to happen at any one time (even if your computer is capable of more), you can set the value to
2
. Most users won’t see a need to change this value.Related Page : Server Settings - Bandwidth and Transcoding Limits
