Desktop Encoding Software

Cloud infrastructure now accessible from your desktop - Making batch encoding a snap

Desktop video encoding is convenient but bogs down your computer’s CPU and RAM during processing making it very difficult to get anything else done. We have solved this problem — introducing the Encoding.com desktop uploader, an Adobe Air application. Having transformed the high-volume video encoding market to a cloud-based service, we have decided to open this infrastructure to the desktop batch encoding market. Now you can upload as many HD and SD videos as you like directly from your desktop and our transcoding software will process them in parallel saving hours of encoding time. And, we’ll return them to the destination of your choice: your hard drive, a remote FTP, / SFTP location, or even to cloud storage (S3, Cloud Files). All of Encoding.com’s best in class features are built into the application including turbo encoding, meta data injection, hinting, and much more.
Also includes the complete feature set
Multiple Encoding Engines
We maintain multiple industry leading paid and open source encoding engines and will intelligently send your source video content to the most appropriate software that will yield the best performance and quality for your output files.
 
Keyframes
Add keyframes to your video at our standard rate of 300 or add keyframes at your own custom frequency
 
Meta Data Injection
Optional meta data injection into your FLV or H.264 output using Yamdi and FlvTool
 
Hinting
H.264 and 3GP formats are hinted to support streaming and playback
Turbo Processing
With our optional Turbo Processing™ feature we will process your jobs on a higher capacity server for 4X faster processing times... excellent for large H.264, HD, or high bitrate jobs
 
Media Benchmarking
Receive detailed information about your source video content (bit rate, dimensions, frame rate, codec, etc.) prior to initiating the encode. Use this information to achieve higher quality outputs... excellent for UGV scenarios when source video properties are diverse.
 
Crop, Resize or Preserve Aspect Ratio
Crop the video’s Height or Width, resize the video to any proportion or resize the video while preserving the video's source aspect ratio.
