FFmpeg is a powerful tool for encoding, converting, and manipulating audio and video files.
Hosting it on a dedicated server allows you to fully exploit its power thanks to high-performance CPUs/GPUs, plenty of memory, and fast storage.
This enables the processing of large files, automation of tasks, and 24/7 availability without slowing down other machines.
In summary, a dedicated server maximises speed, reliability, and flexibility for intensive video streams.
