When we talk about media management in Enterprise Video Content Management industry, the format(s) in which the media is accepted by the system and the format(s) in which it is rendered after processing solely determines the content’s accessibility and quality. Due to this, content formats remain a growing concern for end-users as well as stakeholders when choosing the right EVCM for their organization. 

VIDIZMO offers its users high flexibility and extensibility within every aspect of the application.


Content Formats is also one such aspect, which define the various formats allowed on the portal for the content uploaded and in-use. These formats can be mapped to a specific media type, which lets VIDIZMO identify how they are supposed to be stored, processed and delivered. For example a content format for wmv file (extension) has 'video' as its 'media type'. This tells VIDIZMO that it has to be transcoded and will be played back in a player. However a content format with 'jpg' file (extension) is mapped onto an 'image', will not be transcoded and will be displayed in an image viewer.


In order to add support for other additional formats in the application or edit an existing format to define how should the application use it, you can add, edit and delete content formats for further ease. To learn more about its management and ease-of-use, see: How to Manage Content Formats


Note: Content Formats can only be viewed and edited in VIDIZMO Application deployed on premise.
