[FFmpeg-user] Is this machine ok for FFMPEG?

[Damian Głodny]

Hello, I am building 2U rack mountable server for FFMPEG streaming to web
and IPTV. I need machine which allow me in future to run smoothly 8
instances of FFMPEG.

 

1 instance will transcode video card input and output it as MPEG TS to
multicast address. Codecs are x264 and aac, quality is 720p ~4M bitrate.
This one is for IPTV.

2 instance will get input from multicast address from 1 FFMPEG instance and
will output it as 3 streams with different qualities (first stream will just
copy a/v streams). This one is for web.

 

And I want in future add more instances like those above (max 8).

 

I would like to ask is this machine will be enough for my needs?
