Is Burning is mostly a backend type of thing? I ask since this is how
my setup will be.
It makes a difference since I was going to use mtd or the Job Queue
for setting up the conversion jobs. I believe mtd is a frontend job
right (or is there a setting to specify the host)? Which I guess
means that DVD ripping is a frontend job. Hmm, can anyone shed some
light on this in terms of burning support.
Thanks
