TranscoderService

Using the Transcoder API, you can queue asynchronous jobs for transcoding media into various output formats. Output formats may include different streaming standards such as HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) and Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH). You can also customize jobs using advanced features such as Digital Rights Management (DRM), audio equalization, content concatenation, and digital ad-stitch ready content generation.
