Do you have information on this or are you just supposing? The VCU accelerator is supposedly 100x faster than software for VP9 and they have up to 20 accelerators per host. At those ratios it's not clear that a machine would be able to keep up with the audio processing, or that it would be easy to manage the division of labor between accelerators and host CPUs. Also there definitely are broadcast transcoders on the market that do the audio in hardware.
- gruez 2y agosee: https://openbenchmarking.org/test/pts/encode-opus https://openbenchmarking.org/test/pts/encode-opus Modern CPUs seem to be able encode opus at around 266x speed. In other words they can encode 266 seconds of audio in 1 second. The tests results also don't scale with core count, so the program itself is probably single threaded and therefore you could encode even faster if you have concurrent streams. It's highly unlikely that even with VCUs, a server can encode video streams at several thousand times faster than playback speed.
