How to extend the reach of your existing media assets and use the power of new delivery
platforms to increase ROI.

As video becomes increasingly more pervasive, content creators and distributors face a
daunting array of options when deciding which video formats to use for production, post-
production, storage and delivery. Because no single format can serve all needs, transcoding
technology is fast becoming the linchpin in enterprise and broadcast content delivery
pipelines.

Learn about:

• Video and audio formats
• Why and when format conversion (transcoding) is critical
• The vocabulary of transcoding
• Industry-leading transcoding technologies
• How to generate supplemental revenue streams via IPTV, VOD, DVD, web and mobile media
