We want to use an external transcoding service like
to transcode videos in our rails app. We are currently using paperclip for asset management (and our own, ffmpeg based processors).
Does Paperclip support handing the actual procssing/transcoding to external services? How would such a processor look like?
I doubt that Paperclip has integrations with these services, and I don't know about Zencoder/Elastic, but at least Panda has a first-class Ruby gem, which you use similarly to ActiveRecord models (https://github.com/pandastream/panda_gem).
