Transcoding video files
This feature is in beta stage of development. That means it will work most of the time and what more important is we need your feedback.
You can transcode your video files into format playable by most modern portable devices and Adobe flash player. Two main points of this feature:
- Instant playback of video files on slow networks.
- Playback of videofiles using mobile devices such as iPod or a smartphone. If a device has a browser (for example Safari in iPhone) playback is available instantly just like in PC.
