Videos come in a wide array of formats and it is often necessary to convert them to a file type compatible with specific video playing software. Monster Encoder is a powerful high definition (HD) video encoder offered by EyePartner that is capable of converting most popular video file types.
Monster Encoder is available for a free one-month, no-obligation trial so that customers may test its many capabilities and features.
The importance of quality video encoding
Many technology companies create their own proprietary video file formats resulting in a situation in which videos are often not compatible with video playing and editing software. In order to correct this situation, it is often necessary to encode or convert a video into the format accepted by available software.
However, not all encoding solutions are of the same quality and reliability. Some applications have poor design and encoding techniques resulting in poor quality movies with grainy images and choppy sound quality.
For example, if someone wants to upload a film recorded on HD-DVD to an online service like YouTube, it is usually first necessary to convert the large HD-DVD file into something smaller that will meet YouTube file size restrictions. In order to reduce file size, the encoding software uses various data compression techniques. However, these techniques can vary widely in the degree that they impact the quality of the resulting video.
Monster Encoder
The Monster Encoder application is a high quality solution for converting popular video files into the Flash .flv format used for online video streaming. YouTube, for example, uses the .flv file type for its acclaimed video streaming service. When users upload a video to YouTube, the site automatically converts the file to the .flv extension if it is not already in that format.
Unlike many other video encoding software solution and conversion solutions, Monster Encoder maintains the quality of the original video to the highest degree possible while still reducing file size. The system is intuitive with an easy to learn and use interface so that users will quickly be able to convert video files into all popular formats.
Once a high definition movie is in the proper file type, users are ready to publish them on Internet streaming services like YouTube or Vimeo, or on their own websites with proprietary streaming software.
Creates videos that are easily viewed
Monster Encoder converts files into the advanced Flash format that anyone can view without having to waste time downloading and installing arcane codecs. The only requirement to play movies in this format is the Flash Plug-in that Adobe provides to the public free of charge. Indeed, most web browsers and other video playing software are already capable of playing Flash format videos.
The video encoding software solution also has the capability of converting high definition videos into other formats for viewing when using Apple OSX, Microsoft Windows or Linux operating systems including files used on mobile devices like the iPad, IPhone or iPod Touch.
Simple to use interface
To encode a video with Monster Encoder, the user simply uploads the files to the server and then selects a name for the resulting converted file. They can also add a short description to the file along with grouping the file into a particular Category or Channel. The server then handles the job automatically once the user has selected the output file format.
Monster Encoder works faster than competing conversion software, so users do not have to wait long before the video encoding job is complete. The software does not require installing codecs or choosing complex encoding options. Users can also attach a logo watermark of their choice to the encoded video product. The reason that Monster Encoder works so fast is that it utilizes a process known as multithreading that allows conversion at rates significantly faster than similar available software.
Monster Encoder saves time and effort
With Monster Encoder, you can save time and energy converting videos to different formats while still maintaining the highest possible quality. The resulting Flash video footage is easy to upload online or to various players including mobile devices like iPhone and Android smart phones.
Users no longer need to fret over whether others will be able to view their videos due to compatibility issues. The Flash .flv format works with all major computer operating systems and is the most widely used file type for online video viewing and editing.
The software solution supports nearly all popular input video types including those used for video camcorders and webcams. Among the supported formats are AVI, FLV, MOV, MPG 1, MPG 2, MPG 4 and WMV. Monster Encoder can convert these video input files into a wide range of output types including Flash FLV and iPod and iPhone formats.
Flash .flv format is a requirement for online streaming in which the video plays while the file is downloading using a process known as buffering. Streaming is also the technique used for broadcasting live videos. Before the advent of online streaming technology, users had to download the entire video file before they could view it on their computer’s video player. For large files, downloads could take an hour or more.
Since Monster Encoder works dozens of times faster than other types of conversion software, users can save time and energy, and increase their return on investment (ROI). The software allows uploading an unlimited number of files and it supports various screen sizes.
Users of Monster Encoder can also add Digital Rights Management (DRM) and logo watermarks to their finished product for customized playback. The software does not require proprietary hardware as all encoding takes place on the company’s servers.
TikiLIVE
EyePartner also provides another software application known as TikiLIVE that allows users to stream video and audio over the Internet.
TikiLIVE is compatible with any PC allowing users to turn their computers into live streaming devices. They can also share all or part of their desktop along with PowerPoint presentations and web pages using this application.
The software also integrates with social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, and it includes an interactive chat option.
Free trial
Monster Encoder is available for a free one-month trial! If users like the product, it is available at low hosting rates with no additional equipment needed.
We provide the Monster Uploader application as part of the encoding package allowing users to upload videos quickly to our servers for processing. The Monster Uploader allows users to upload as many video files as they want.
In addition, users can interrupt the encoding at any time without aborting the process. When they pause an encoding, the application remembers where it left off and begins encoding again at that point when the user restarts the application. The feature also applies during periods of slow Internet connections. The application will pause until the connection is again fast enough to resume efficient upload delivery.
Once the file is on our servers, the application working at high speeds using our proprietary multithreading technique, converts files at exceptionally fast rates. When the job is complete, we send an email notification so that users can download the video. The file needs no more processing and is ready for play on mobile devices and computers. For this and all your streaming needs, contact Eyepartner today to get started on making your content more accessible and shared across the web!
