Video Off-Load Settings

Video off-load settings help in tuning the performance of the video off-load agent to optimize the video generation operation based on the resources available on the video-offload agent.

The video off-load setting is a global setting that is applied to all the video off-load agents.

To edit video off-load settings:

  1. Click Command Control > Video Settings.

  2. Click Video Processor and specify the following:

    Apply Settings: Select Default to use the predefined settings, you cannot modify the predefined settings. When you select Default, Conversion Priority is set to Normal and Auto Manage Resources is set to Yes.

    Select Customize to customize the following settings:

    Auto Manage Resources: If you set this option to Yes, then based on the CPU and memory usage at any given time, Privileged Account Manager determines the number of video conversion instances that can be executed simultaneously. For better throughput and optimized CPU and RAM usage, you must set this option to Yes.

    If you set this option to NO, you must define the Number of Simultaneous Instances.

    Number of Simultaneous Instances: Specify the maximum number of video conversion instances that can run simultaneously at a time in the video off-load agent.

    Conversion Priority: This option determines the video conversion process priority in the CPU. By setting the priority, you can ensure that other operations of the CPU are uninterrupted.

    Set this option to Low when video conversion is not of high priority. If you set the priority to Low the video generation operation would be slow and would consume more temporary storage to accumulated the video generation data.

    Set this option to Normal when the video conversion process is of moderate or high priority.

  3. Click Finish.
