The charge of $6/hr for Transcoding are you charging $6 per sender or per viewer? For instance if their are two different videos being streamed from my website by two different users using your API and there at 50 viewers watching each video, would I be charged $12/hr or $600/hr?

Hi @Ernest Williams, thanks for asking. I’ll have someone who knows more than I do about the transcoding billing answer you soon.
