During the same time period as 60 sms the computing team had finally swapped away from their old transcoders to their new transcoders, the bytemarks. Whilst this was an upgrade since it provided extra space in the studio, the software however was not completely installed on them. Where they were only capable of transcoding livestreams not completing encoding jobs. So in order to ensure that the videos would be available to watch on the website, the computing team setup EncodeSrv, the software that handles all our rendering, the issue being was a lack of documentation and the software was based on Python 2.7. So over a period of a week the software was brought up to use Python 3.8. However, during the haste of development there ended up being 4 different variants of the software being deployed for the 60 sms due to the encoding jobs failing and patches were made to the software on the fly. Luckily, all the videos were able to be processed in time to be released to the public.

Due to an issue with how the YSTV website processes videos it was generating incorrect encode jobs for the videos that Ben had produced through DaVinci Resolve. Likely caused by the YSTV website not being "familiar" with the metadata generated by Resolve, [[Ben Allen| Ben]] {{unsure|"transmuxed"}} the video files so the website could generate the correct jobs.

This issue is currently still under investigation.
