offsite FFMPEG

It would be nice to have the ability to define an offsite server that could do the transcoding.

My desire would be to use Amazon EC2 as the place to do that transcoding. The flow I was thinking was, file is uploaded to S3, EC2 instance is launched and a request to transcode the file is passed, transcoded file is moved to new S3 bucket.

Using a standard method would allow any server to do the transcode.
