Agreeing with this. Unless you have very specific performance codec or packaging needs i think external ffmpeg process etc will work fine. In my experience with transcoding the cpu/memory/etc overhead of an external process is usually dwarfed by the actual transcoding workload. Also the extra process overhead is not typically a problem as you can't really do that many concurrent transcodings on one host anyway. If you want some inspiration you can have a look at https://github.com/wader/ydls
