MOBILE AND METERED CONNECTIONS

The 240p lowest video encoding profile is always used and is specified for mobile and/or metered connections, or in situations when bandwidth is most important than other things. The 360p is considered the normal quality profile. The 480p is called TV quality profile, or SD. 720p and 1080p is for video HD ready and/or full.

AUDIO

The audio of a video file will be encoded with AAC (mp3) codecs at the same bitrate chosen for “quality”. The audio-only files will be transcoded in a blank video file with AAC codec (mp3) at the same bitrate chosen for “quality”; you can upload an image (after the conversion is finished) as the cover of the video (the video can be ignored inside the player and only the cover will be visible).

Watermark Options

A digital watermark is a kind of marker covertly embedded in a noise-tolerant signal such as an audio, video or image data. It is typically used to identify ownership of the copyright of such signal. “Watermarking” is the process of hiding digital information in a carrier signal; the hidden information should, but does not need to, contain a relation to the carrier signal. Digital watermarks may be used to verify the authenticity or integrity of the carrier signal or to show the identity of its owners. It is prominently used for tracing copyright infringements and for banknote authentication. When you impress the Digital Watermark inside your content-[Contents]: [every content intended as text, images, audio or video], there’s no way to remove it.

Encoding Help

The encoding is important to let the viewers watch the videos without lags or buffering; the most you want quality and the most the loading of the video is slow. This factor depending on the connection speed of the viewer. Once selected, you cannot turn back and choose another quality. These options depends on the original video resolution. The process of re-encoding an audio/video is called “transcoding”.

Preview Thumbnail

The thumbnail is created automatically with the first frame of the original video (at first seconds); you can change the thumbnail whenever you want after the encoding, in the “edit content informations” page.
