Live to VOD Transcoding

A VOD playlist (*.vod.m3u8) will be uploaded to destination when the Live Transcoding process is finished (using ‘StopLive‘ request, ‘Stop’ request, or after an error).
You can specify any full-featured VOD outputs in your API request.
Also you can specify only VOD output formats without adding ‘live_hls‘ format.

❗️

Note

‘Harmonic‘ outputs not allowed as VOD output.

🚧

Note

VOD processing will be started after ‘StopLive‘.
