Timeout

The maximum amount of time to spend processing. If processing is not complete after the specified time duration, Media Server attempts to stop the action, as if you had used the QueueInfo action with QueueAction=stop.

The total processing time can exceed the parameter value because Media Server waits for each engine to stop at a convenient point. For example, an engine is likely to stop processing after it has finished analyzing its current video frame.

After an action has stopped, Media Server updates the status to "Finished" (reaching the timeout is not considered to be an error).

You cannot set this parameter in combination with the Persist parameter.
