This guide covers performance recommendations for creating real-time video pipelines.
A pipeline must pass pre-deployment tests before it can be published to LivepeerBefore deployment, we conduct a 30s test using the Big Buck Bunny mp4. This test will fail if:
Any exception occurs
Output Frames-per-second (FPS) degrades from input FPS by 80% or more ((input FPS / output FPS) < 0.2)
20% - 80% degradation is consider suboptimal and will incur a warning, but will pass pre-deployment tests
< 20% degradation is considered good, but developers should strive for ~0% degradation
