Abstract:
1. A method for providing simultaneous transcoding of multi-media data, comprising: receiving a multi-media file in a first format; receiving a request with proprietary tags containing parameters as part of a URL for said multi-media file to a plurality of output devices, wherein at least two devices from said plurality of output devices output file formats with incompatible capabilities; automatically determining, at the time of the request, one or more formats requested based on said one or more proprietary tags, parsing said parameters to determine client connection speed, server traffic, browser, and device based upon said client connection speed, said server traffic, polled device, browser, and other variables collected at the time of said request, and one or more content, generation procedures, automatically transcoding, at the time of the request and without input by a network administrator, data within said multi-media file into a plurality of formats based on one or more formats of any output device from among the plurality of output devices, wherein said plurality of formats are different from said first format wherein said transcoding comprises each of: changing a resolution of said data within said multi-media file based on the resolution capabilities of the at least two output devices, changing a frame rate of said data within said multi-media file based on the frame rate capabilities of the at least two output devices, and changing a compression format of said data within said multi-media file based on the compression capabilities of the at least two output devices; and wherein said first format is an analog format and wherein said at least one alternate format comprises a first digital format and a second digital format; and transmitting simultaneously with said transcoding said multi-media file to each output device from among said plurality of output devices in a compatible format.
