Transcoding: The Key to Multiscreen Video

As service providers seek to deliver video services to multiple screens, one major challenge they face is how to adapt their video content to each device's different format and bandwidth requirements.

Using adaptive bit rate streaming, they are now encoding and re-encoding the video for each separate device, but the process is expensive and time-consuming.

• Explore the opportunities of multiscreen video service
• Focus particularly on the video transcoding issue
• Assess the different transcoding options
• Examine the transcoding challenges that providers face
• look at ways to overcome those challenges

As multiscreen video continues to grow and evolve, less costly, more effective transcoding solutions will become increasingly paramount. In this webinar, we will suggest ways that service providers can cut their transcoding costs and deliver multiscreen services more efficiently.
