Offline sync/download

[mastrmind11 722]

Why isn't my server pegged when I select the "full speed conversion"?  Is it an ffmpeg thing?  I selected medium conversion as a trial run and I'm sitting here looking at 25-35% CPU saturation.   I've never used the feature in the past, but holy hell it's slow.... I'm glad I started a day in advance!  Also, why doesn't the "transferring" indicator update on the device that's downloading?  I've found myself checking and refreshing just to get the status of the transfer.  Also, why can't the transcode and transfer be done simultaneously?  If you can stream it on the fly when transcoding, why not transcode and transfer on the fly, preferably with a % indicator?  

 

Just being devils advocate here.  I've never used the feature until now (and likely won't for another year), and now that I am I'm surprised the process is as rough as it is, though I do appreciate the functionality.
