FileFlows

Overview

FileFlows lets you process files in a rule flow like system. Primary focus is for video file processing, including coverting videos to standard format (hevc/ac3 etc), and other function for example, removing black bars from videos, adding chapter points for comskip/edl files and many more features It supports a Server and mutliple node setup, where you can have one server (with an internal processing node) and additional computers/machines as additional processing nodes. For NVIDIA GPU setup see https://github.com/revenz/FileFlows/wiki/Unraid-NVIDIA-Setup
