Video Conversation Wasting Storage
Ran into a roadblock on a new install. After uploading a 1.4Gb test video, it converted to ~200mb but leaves the original upload file in storage.
Want to move users from dolphin, and were a video heavy site - making this a huge problem.
Known issue? Any suggestions?
-
Wait is this true, does it keep the original video? How can I delete the original video from storage after it is encoded?
-
Are the originals needed for anything?
-
I am also interested in this.
Also, how to remove the SD quality video from being generated? It takes the original video & creates SD&HD versions- which combined come to even more disk space usage than the original un-optimized video. -
Has anyone found a solution to this?
-
Original file is needed in case if video need to be regenerated, for example when video quality or image resolution is changed.
It's possible to use cheap external storage to have unlimited storage and pay only for what you use, if local storage is limited

Makes sense :)
