hello, i want to know about the cost for running function that uses ffmpeg to concatinate vidoes, the total video duration can be like 10h, can appwrite functions handle that and how much could the cost be ?

TL;DR
Developers are wondering about using ffmpeg with Appwrite functions to concatenate videos without encoding. The maximum execution time for async executions is 15 minutes, so it may not be suitable for a task that takes 10 hours. They are also inquiring about the cost implications of running such a function with Appwrite.

Well, if the encoding takes 10h, then I don't think you can use appwrite functions as the max execution time is capped to 15 minutes for async executions

not the encoding but the actual final video

its just concatination so there's no encoding
