TransAct Redirector

Video host, share, and aggregation sites have a lot to manage to enable the seamless transcoding and delivery of content to Internet and mobile subscribers. The infrastructure model can become even more complex if a third party ad network is involved in either on-demand content transcoding or dynamic ad insertion. The goal is to perform all necessary ‘transcoding as a transaction’ functions as transparently as possible for a seamless end user experience – without forcing an entire rework of the host provider’s Web delivery infrastructure.

RipCode’s TransAct Redirector enables the end user device to be automatically and transparently redirected to a transcoded video file location so on-demand transcoding can be seamlessly inserted into the host provider’s web infrastructure without costly, time-consuming, custom workflow changes.

Minimizing On-Demand Service Activation and Cost of Ownership

This advancement both eliminates a user engagement step, as well as enables transactional transcoding to be quickly inserted into an existing video delivery provider’s workflow environment – easing service turn-up for both the video host provider and any third party workflow participants.
