Video Processor Settings
Overview
The Video Processor Settings page is the central hub for configuring how videos are processed, encoded, displayed, and monetized on your platform. This comprehensive admin page contains five main tabs:
- Processing Settings - Configure video encoding, thumbnails, previews, HLS streaming, and distributed conversion
- Pre-Roll & Post-Roll - Upload and manage videos that play before/after your content
- Video Overlays - Create image and text watermarks that are burned into processed videos
- Video Player - Configure player features, watermarks, overlays, and playlist settings
- Video Player Ads - Set up VAST/IMA advertising and custom overlay ads

Step-by-Step Usage
Setting Up Basic Video Processing
- Navigate to Dashboard > Videos > Processor Settings
- On the Processing Settings tab:
- Set Max Concurrent Jobs based on your server CPU (2-4 for most servers)
- Adjust Job Timeout if processing large 4K videos (increase to 7200)
- Keep Retry Attempts at 3 for reliability
- Scroll to Thumbnail Generation Settings:
- Set Thumbnail Count (5-10 recommended)
- Enable Generate Video Sprites for timeline preview
- Click Save Settings
Tip:
Start with conservative settings and increase concurrent jobs only after monitoring server load.
Start with conservative settings and increase concurrent jobs only after monitoring server load.
Configuring HLS Adaptive Streaming
- On the Processing Settings tab, scroll to HLS Adaptive Streaming Settings
- Check Enable HLS Adaptive Streaming
- Set Minimum Source Height to 720 or 1080
- Configure Active HLS Resolutions (e.g., "hd,high,medium" for 1080p, 720p, 480p)
- Adjust bitrates for each quality level
- Click Save Settings
Warning:
HLS significantly increases storage requirements. A 100MB source video may generate 400MB+ of HLS files across all quality levels.
HLS significantly increases storage requirements. A 100MB source video may generate 400MB+ of HLS files across all quality levels.

Troubleshooting
Videos Stuck in "Pending" Status
Symptom: Videos upload but never get processed.
Solution:
- Check if the cron job is running:
crontab -l | grep videoprocessor
- Test manual execution:
php /path/to/ct/admin/cron/videoprocessor.php
- Check processor logs:
tail -100 /path/to/ct/logs/videoprocessor/videoprocessor.log
- Verify FFmpeg is installed and accessible
- Check file permissions on upload directories
Thumbnails Not Generating
Symptom: Videos process but have no thumbnails.
Solution:
- Verify FFmpeg can extract frames:
ffmpeg -i /path/to/video.mp4 -vframes 1 test.jpg
- Check Thumbnail Count is > 0
- Ensure upload directories are writable
- Look for FFmpeg errors in processing logs
HLS Not Working
Symptom: Videos don't offer quality selection.
Solution:
- Confirm Enable HLS Adaptive Streaming is checked
- Verify source video meets Minimum Source Height requirement
- Check that Active HLS Resolutions is not empty
- Ensure FFmpeg has required codecs:
ffmpeg -codecs | grep x264
- Check for HLS files in video output directory
Watermarks Not Appearing
Symptom: Video overlays configured but not visible on processed videos.
Solution:
- Watermarks are burned in during processing - check if overlay is Active
- Existing videos need reprocessing to apply new watermarks
- Verify image file exists at the stored path
- Check that FFmpeg can read the overlay image:
ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -i overlay.png -filtercomplex "overlay" test.mp4
Player Overlays Not Showing
Symptom: Player overlays configured but not appearing during playback.
Solution:
- Check if overlay is marked Active
- Verify Show At time hasn't passed
- Player overlays don't work with embedded videos (iframes)
- Check browser console for JavaScript errors
- Verify player feature is enabled in Player Features table
VAST Ads Not Playing
Symptom: Ads configured but not appearing.
Solution:
- Check Enable Video Ads is on
- Verify VAST tag URL is valid and accessible
- Test with Google IMA sample tags first
- Enable Debug Mode and check console
- Ensure player is using Video.js (not embedded)
- Check for CORS issues with ad server
Cloud Encoding Webhook Failures
Symptom: Cloud encoding completes but videos aren't updated.
Solution:
- Verify webhook URL is publicly accessible
- Check that SSL certificate is valid (webhooks require HTTPS)
- Look for webhook calls in server access logs
- Test webhook endpoint manually with curl:
curl -X POST https://yoursite.com/api/v1/webhooks/bunny-stream -d "test=1"
