VIDIZMO Upload API: Developers can use VIDIZMO Upload API to implement custom content ingestion workflows.

All uploaded videos are converted into 5 or more different bitrates and four different formats with a total of up to 20 different renditions. Typically, a 1080p uploaded video will be encoded into 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p, 240p in MPEG4, and HLS formats to ensure playback on all devices, browsers in all bandwidth conditions. Users can also create and use encoding profiles. Encoding can be performed either in the cloud, on-premises software or using hardware encoders.

Yes. As soon as new files are uploaded, VIDIZMO automatically encodes and converts it into multiple formats to support playback on multiple devices, browsers, and varying user bandwidths, ensuring playback on all devices and in all types of bandwidth conditions. All uploaded videos are encoded into multiple pre-configured formats and resolutions to allow playback on various devices, browsers, and bandwidth conditions. A typical 1080p uploaded video will be encoded into 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p, 240p in MPEG4, HLS, WebM, and Microsoft Smooth Streaming formats to ensure playback on all devices and browsers in all bandwidth conditions. Following is a more detailed chart of video formats accepted by various VIDIZMO products: http://www.vidizmo.com/support/service-specifications

Yes, VIDIZMO automatically detects the best video format to play for the device. Additionally, the customer can configure the order of player (HTML5) based on their preference and IT Policy.

Yes, VIDIZMO offers the ability to transcode, store, and stream hundreds of thousands of video files concurrently via both Public, Private Cloud as well as On-Premise models.

No, there is no limit on the number of videos or rich media content that can be hosted by VIDIZMO. You can upload, import and publish unlimited number of videos and other digital media assets. Also, there is no limit on the file size you can upload.

For adaptive streaming, VIDIZMO supports Adobe’s HTTP Dynamic Streaming (HDS), Apple’s HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), and Microsoft’s Smooth Streaming. For standard streaming, VIDIZMO supports HTTP Progressive Download and RTMP. Multicast support is also available for multicast streaming. VIDIZMO supports low latency streaming. VIDIZMO can be configured to provide ultra-low latency using WebRTC.

VIDIZMO does not recommend a particular encoding profile, as the choice depends on an organization's specific needs and the devices on which content will be played. However, VIDIZMO offers default CPU and GPU encoding profiles, and organizations can customize their encoding provider. 

Yes, VIDIZMO offers default encoding profiles that specify certain parameters for the output file after transcoding. 

Yes, VIDIZMO allows organizations to customize encoding profiles based on their specific requirements. 

No, VIDIZMO does not provide a specific recommendation for upload resolution/file size. The optimal video resolution depends on an organization's specific needs, and the devices and bandwidth on which content will be played.

Yes, VIDIZMO offers the ability to configure encoding profiles with certain parameters such as file size and bitrates, which can be customized based on organizational needs.

No. Transcoding will not modify the original file uploaded to VIDIZMO. In VIDIZMO, both encoding and transcoding create multiple copies for different codecs and renditions of the original file. These copies consume additional space, besides the original upload. 

VIDIZMO transcodes uploaded media to ensure that the video is playable on variable internet speeds/bandwidths throughout multiple devices or platforms without compromising the performance or quality of the original file. 

VIDIZMO currently has 10 encoding profiles which can be accessed from Control Panel > Encoding > Encoding Profiles.  

No, the original video quality is not compromised. VIDIZMO's transcoding process involves using advanced video encoding techniques to create copies of the original video that optimize the quality of video playback in lower bandwidths, by reducing its file size. These copies ensure the video quality is not compromised during the transcoding process.
