-Similar to variant 2, but the release encoder (minion) only mounts the /video/fuse/$room/ from each recording cube. The encoded and tmp files life on one minion, the secondary minions mount /video/encoded and /video/tmp from the primary minion. [Reason: It is not guaranteed that the minion which encoded a talk also does the postprocessing (upload) step.]+Similar to variant 2, but extended to work with multiple rooms. Instead of using rsync, recorded snippets remain on the encoding cubes and ''/video/fuse/$event/$room'' are exposed via samba to the minions, while the encoded and tmp files live on one "central" minion; all other minions mount ''/video/encoded'' and ''/video/tmp'' from the primary minion [reasoning: the tracker cannot guarantee that the machine which encoded a talk also does the postprocessing (upload) step, so all minions have to see the same files]. 
 + 
 +Tracker filters have to be set only for the recording cubes, minions do not require any filters (but on smaller events without many minions, a ''EncodingProfile.IsMaster=yes'' filter can be a good idea, so sub formats won't crowd out the queues — they can always be encoded off-site later). 
 + 
 +On recording cubes: start the followin systemd units: 
 + * ''crs-recording-scheduler'' 
 + * ''crs-mount4cut'' 
 + * ''crs-cut-postprocessor'' 
 + 
 +On all minions, including the one acting as storage, do
