When handling conversion MediaVibe takes as source the uploaded video.

You can change this to take the last converted source.

To explain this simple:
1080p - source {upload}
720p - source {upload}
360p - source {upload}
This is the logic in the CMS.

Here is my take:
1080p - source {upload}
720p - source  1080p
360p - source 720p
That's a conversion source chained from bigger to lower.

I would be very useful for faster conversion BUT it has a downside: If one quality fails then all that follow will fail (domino effect).
This is why it didn't make it into the release.
But now you can recreate missing qualities in admin -> edit video. So no biggie!

Here is my take codewise:

videocron.php file

find

Code Select Expand

foreach ($to as $call) {

BEFORE add

Code Select Expand

krsort($to);

This will sort descending the qualities.

bit lower find:

Code Select Expand

$command .=$out.';';

AFTER it add:

Code Select Expand

$input = $final.'-'.$call.'.mp4'; /* Reset source to last (bigger) conversion) */

I'm releasing a plugin to handle a bit better (my personal take) the video conversion for less-power hosts.

If you test or use this please give feedback.

It's more than this. But follows the same logic.
