Video transcoding
Benefit | MPS | Custom transcoding solution |
Cost-efficient |
| Custom transcoding solutions require a large amount of transcoding resources and high maintenance costs. |
Powerful transcoding capabilities | MPS uses a high-speed and stable system for parallel transcoding. The system can automatically scale in and out to meet the requirements for resources. This way, the system can seamlessly scale out cluster resources to process a large number of concurrent transcoding jobs. | Custom transcoding solutions cannot process a large number of concurrent transcoding jobs. |
Professional transcoding algorithms | Based on powerful computing resources, MPS provides advanced video processing algorithms. The proprietary video enhancement feature allows you to transcode a video to one in ultra high definition or a damaged video to a restored version. | The quality of the transcoded videos depends on the open source transcoding service that is used. |
Rich features and highly customizable templates |
| You need to integrate open source transcoding services with your own business or build your transcoding service by starting development at the underlying layer. |
Easy-to-use media workflows | MPS allows you to create custom media workflows. When media files are uploaded, workflows are automatically triggered to transcode the files. Notifications on the transcoding status can be sent in real time. A common media workflow takes you only 1 minute to build. | You must develop transcoding-related interfaces and a notification mechanism. |
