Background transcoding

[hugegreenbug 1]

Since HW accelerated realtime transcoding isn't available at the moment, I was wondering about the background transcoding feature from QNAP. It works fine, but since the transcoded files are named differently and placed in a @Transcoded directory, they aren't added to the library correctly. There doesn't seem to be a way to specify where the files go or what they are named. Is there anything in emby for me to specify that these are transcoded versions of the same file?

Hi,  yes! Take a look at our wiki on multi-resolution naming:

Let us know if you have any additional questions. Thanks.

@@Luke,
 
  I don't see anything on the that wiki page that would help deal with this. It's not like one version of the file is 720P and the other is a 1080P version. Both the original and the trans-coded resolution are the same resolution. With possibly  only a different codex for the video && || audio. Unless your suggesting that we can take the  transcoded version and move it into a folder with the original and call it something like "300 - 1080p - Transocded - General - High.mkv" or like ""300 - 1080p - Transocded - Baseline - High.mkv" ?

you can name them whatever you like, it doesn't have to be by resolution.
