Paused transcoded streams keep transcoding forever.

As topic says, paused transcoded streams keep transcoding forever.
Is this on purpose? I thought it was only supposed to transcode up to a certain point ahead.

Here is how to report a problem

 

Is transcoding throttle still turned on?

Or is it still going after the stream is closed.

Didn't post logs because it's not really a problem but more of a question to how it's supposed to work.  
Throttle is on, never thought about it before now so haven't tried without.

The stream never gets closed, it's only paused by the user.. For hours...

It’s normal, but the throttle feature will allow it to slow down.

Thank you.

That sounds like the last couple of pages in this thread. At least back then it appeared to be media specific and I'm surprised Luke says it's normal.

Sorry, for some reason I ignored the forever part. In most cases it should stop the transcode within 60 seconds, however, whether or not this occurs depends on what other activity is happening.

It just keeps transcoding forever though at a throttled speed when people pause their video or just quits the app.

Universally that is not true, although it may happen in some situations.
