Our answer to this is [`vertd`](https://github.com/VERT-sh/vertd), which is a simple FFmpeg wrapper built in Rust. If you don't understand all that technical jargon, **it basically allows you to convert videos using the full capacity of your computer**, which results in much faster conversion. It runs on your computer (or a server somewhere, if you know what you're doing), and the VERT web interface reaches out to it in order to convert your videos.
Due to the excessive costs of hosting this for you, we don't have an official instance yet. However, you can still run it on your own PC. This does require some proficiency in knowing how server applications work, although we'll make it easier in the future. You can download the binaries [here](https://github.com/VERT-sh/vertd/releases).

Essentially:
- Download the latest release of `vertd` for your machine [here](https://github.com/VERT-sh/vertd/releases)
- Run the server
- Connect the VERT UI to your local `vertd` instance
- By default, `vertd` runs a HTTP server on port `24153`, so you would put `http://localhost:24153` in the "Instance URL" setting found in VERT's settings
