Thumbnail conversion are slow

[clicl...@gmail.com]

Hi, I try to upload in a conference, but the conversion of the thumbnails is slow. I'd like to know what could be wrong.

[Fred Dixon]

Hi,

Are you testing this with your own BigBlueButton server or one of our public test servers.  Can you try it with

  https://demo.bigbluebutton.org/

and let us know if it's any different.  Also, there is logic in the slide conversions that if a particular slide has a lot of high-res images, or a high-res background image for each slide, it will be first converted to an image.

Try replacing the master slide with a solid colour (not gradient) and let us know if the conversion is any faster.

 

Regards,... Fred

I tried it with https://demo.bigbluebutton.org/ and was faster than my own server.

I've set up the s3 bucket on my own server, and I think that's why the thumbnail conversion is slow, can you tell if there's ever been a problem with this? I did not find anything on the web, and I do not know very well how to solve.

Thanks.

Hi Pedro,

> I've set up the s3 bucket on my own server, and I think that's why the thumbnail conversion is slow, can you tell if there's ever been a problem with this?

We're not aware of any issues  -- the demo server is using the default slide conversion.   What code are you using for the s3 storage ... is it this?

No, I don't used this code, I mounted s3 storage with nfs3 in my server and I created symbolics links look this:

drwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7       0 Jun  8 14:37 bigbluebutton

drwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7       0 May 23 15:43 blank

drwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7       0 May 23 15:33 configs

-rwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7 1787121 Jun  7 18:29 conhecendo-o-git.pdf

drwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7       0 May 23 15:42 playback

drwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7       0 Jun  7 13:38 published

drwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7       0 May 23 15:42 recording

drwxrwxrwx 1 red5    red5          0 May 23 16:48 screenshare

drwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7       0 Jun  7 18:12 unpublished

Now, how do I set up this code in my server, I use BigBlueButton 1.1, there are any documentation about this integration with s3 storage?

Hi Pedro,

>  I mounted s3 storage with nfs3 in my server and I created symbolics links look this:

OK, we've not tried this ourselves, so we don't have any experience on the impact.

>   https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/pull/3914

We've not merged this into the core yet, and it's on the 2.0-dev branch.  Though you had tried to port it into a 1.1 server.  If you want to try, here are the steps to setup a development environment

  http://docs.bigbluebutton.org/dev/setup.html

You will likely see the above pull request incorporated at some point in the future.

Ok Fred, I will try setup this feature. 

Thanks for answering me.

If you moved /var/bigbluebutton to S3 I could see it causing issues because active files are stored in /var/bigbluebutton. You would really only want your recordings moved to S3 because once they are finished processing they won't get modified again. If you just moved recordings you would only need /var/bigbluebutton/[playback|published|unpublished] in S3 I think.

[Pedro Custódio]

Hi Chad,

My main object is move the recording to bucket s3, you think that if move it only [playback + published + unpuvblished] to bucket s3 through of the a symbolics links, can I get succes?

[Chad Pilkey]

I believe those three directories are the only locations where fully processed recordings are stored. I haven't tried to use S3 myself so I don't know if it would work for sure, but I think it will work.

[Pedro Custódio]

Ok, I will try, if I not get succes, I will try setup development environmnet to work with this feature https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/pull/3914

Regards.. Pedro

I mounted one bucket s3 in var/bigbluebutton/recording/publish/presentation and worked for me, now I have the recordings in my s3.

The thumbnail conversion are fast also.

Thanks all answering
