Operation

• The sngtc_server is at the heart of the transcoding environment. It interfaces the transcoder hardware and codec module (the codec module, in FreeSWITCH, communicates with the sngtc_server in order to pass information to/from transcoder). It controls all Sangoma transcoders that are located on the same computer (this means you cannot have multiple sngtc_servers controlling/communicating with specific transcoders).   

  The sngtc_server needs to be started before transcoding can be done. Below is the usage of the sngtc_server_ctrl command.
