 The Encoder Cubes are handling the video [[decklink|capturing]], switching and recording and are the source for the live streams.
@@ Line 5: / Line 5: @@
 Today the cubes only run voctomix core and encode live streams as the release encoding was delegated the [[hardware:minion|minions]]. However, the cubes might be used to encode release files during longer breaks e.g. in the night time.
