The new Video Transcoder provides powerful features and very simplified interface for developers. Working with video is as simple as working with images using Images Transcoder. Converted files are automatically stored it in the storage engine.
It generates .mp4 and .webm videos to support HTML5 video playing in all modern browsers:
| .mp4 | .webm | |
| Google Chrome | YES | YES |
| Mozilla Firefox | YES (Except OSX) | YES |
| Internet Explorer | YES (9+) | NO |
| Opera | YES | YES |
| Safari | YES | NO |
| iOS | YES | NO |
| Android | YES | YES |
Data is actual as of November 2014
Along with usual operations by resizing and converting videos transcoder can do the following:
- conversion queue - waiting for video conversion is minimal, videos are converting every minute
- remote conversion - videos can be converted on any number of remote servers, so main site is not overloaded with conversion and videos are processed as soon as possible
- automatic detection of fully black and white video thumbnails - videos usually begin with black or white screen which fades out after 1-3 seconds, this situation is detected and video image is taken after some image appears
- automatic video aspect ratio detection
- moving meta information to the beginning of mp4 file - so video begins to play as soon as possible
- 3rd-party modules can add custom filters for video processing
