TimedMediaHandler submit jobs to transcode video. They are named webVideoTranscode and are excluded from the default queue processing through $wgJobTypesExcludedFromDefaultQueue . jobrunner boxes uses the wikimedia-job-runner package. We might want a new package dedicated to run the webVideoTranscode jobs.
Assigning to self and raising priority.
I have started adapting the job loop from mediawiki/extensions/WikimediaMaintenance * https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/11040 (doc update) * https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/11041 (fix ability to handle only a specific job type)
Both changes were reviewed and merged in core. That would let us proceed the transcoding queue by just using: get-loops.sh webVideoTranscode Need to package that nicely though.
Part of wikimedia-job-runner Debian package migration to a puppet class. Jan Gerber has been working on it: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/16501/
Been fixed by Jan. See Gerrit change #16501.
