Running Live Transcoder without GPU

If your instance doesn't feature Nvidia GPU, you may still run Live Transcoder with pipelines which don't involve GPU processing.

This currently means use-cases with interlaced framerate/standards conversion.

To enable CPU-only run, the docker-compose.yml must be changed this way:

1. Open docker-compose.yml with a text editor:
   vim docker-compose.yml
   or
   nano docker-compose.yml
2. Delete or comment out (# ) this line under environment:
   - NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all
3. Save the file (in the vim editor press <esc> key, then :wg + <enter>; in the nano editor press <ctrl> + X and confirm by pressing Y, then <enter>)
