Encoding.com offers three processing speed levels (baseline,turbo, twin turbo) allowing maximum flexibility on a per output task basis to use speed only when you need it. We have now upgraded our baseline encoding profile to utilize more threads and encode on average 4 times faster!
Optimized S3 transit
We have implemented a new multithreaded transfer protocol that greatly accelerates transmit time out of Amazon S3s storage location. On average we are seeing a 4-5X speed improvement with peak up to 10x faster than our legacy protocol. If your source media is stored on Amazon S3, you can activate multithread download by adding ?multithread parameter to your source URLs. If you are utilizing the ?nocopy function already then you can use both together by appending ?nocopy&multithread to your source URLs
Video Slideshows
To further bolster our advanced editing services we have now added the ability create video slideshows from multiple images and an audio tracks. We can support source images in .jpeg and .png and we support audio source in mpeg audio, mpeg-4, or wav formats. To create your own video slideshow simply specify 1 within the Main Fields of your API request. As default each slide has a duration of 3 seconds however you can customize duration by appending ?duration= to the source image path. See oue Slideshow API docs for details:
As Apples HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) protocol gains adoption in OTT devices like the Roku, Apple TV, Boxee, Google TV, and Samsung Smart TVs as well as desktop HLS implemetnations like JWPLayer it is important to deliver a wider set of resolutions (beyond iOS resolutions) in your HLS stream. We have updated our default settings to allow multiple resolutions within a single HLS stream, and also updated our default settings to include 7 resolutions with recommended bitrates, frame rates, and keyframes from the HLS specs:
