Dolby Audio Processing

We provide Dolby Audio processing via these tools:

  • Dolby's Dolby Media Generator (DMG) audio engine brings aggregators and distributors reliable delivery of mobile and OTT content while lowering storage requirements, reducing download times, and boosting playback quality.
  • The Dolby Encoding Engine is a software product that significantly simplifies the integration and use of Dolby technologies.

Encoding.com has partnered with Dolby to make DOlby Audio tools available in the cloud. Please see the Audio Settings section of the reference for more generic information on creating content in AAC LC, HE-AAC, AC3 and E-AC3.
