+## PeerTube runner
+
+PeerTube >= 5.2 supports VOD or Live transcoding by a remote PeerTube runner.
+
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+sudo npm install -g @peertube/peertube-runner
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+The runner uses env paths like `~/.config`, `~/.cache` and `~/.local/share` directories to store runner configuration or temporary files.
+
+Multiple PeerTube runners can run on the same OS by using the `--id` CLI option (each runner uses its own config/tmp directories):
+
+```bash
+peertube-runner [commands] --id instance-1
+peertube-runner [commands] --id instance-2
+peertube-runner [commands] --id instance-3
+```
+
+
+### Run the server
+
+Run the runner in server mode so it can run transcoding jobs of registered PeerTube instances:
+
+```bash
+peertube-runner server
+```
+
+### Register
+
+To register the runner on a new PeerTube instance so the runner can process its transcoding job:
+
+```bash
+peertube-runner register --url http://peertube.example.com --registration-token ptrrt-... --runner-name my-runner-name
+```
+
+The runner will then use a websocket connection with the PeerTube instance to be notified about new available transcoding jobs.
+
+### Unregister
+
+To unregister a PeerTube instance:
+
+```bash
+peertube-runner unregister --url http://peertube.example.com
+```
+
+### List registered instances
+
+```bash
+peertube-runner list-registered
+```
