Watchdog Timer
by Fruk
An electronic timer that is used to detect and recover from computer malfunctions
Watchdog Timer is an application for tracking the work of encoders. The program is designed to monitor the encoding process if the encoder is not stable. Watchdog Timer scans the processes running in the system at regular intervals, and if it doesn't find a process related to the encoding among them, it sends an e-mail to the user and can run user-defined programs. The test interval is adjustable.
The Watchdog Timer ensures consistent encoding by monitoring system processes and providing immediate notification of any issues.
