Transformation
Convert your digital media to multiple formats and bit rates in a single action. Using our application and leveraging best of breed encoding applications and hardware, Odaptor can guarantee your content is properly formatted for delivery to all of your distribution channels. Transcode content directly from Odaptor, upload new material through the browser, or configure automated workflows to process content as it is created. Origin Digital can also assist with the digitization of physical media such as Tape, DVD, and CD-ROM.
Content Management System
Manage all of your digital content; no matter where it resides. Assets within Odaptor can contain any number of files (video, audio, image) and metadata and can be stored anywhere on the Internet. Thumbnails, storyboards, and proxy videos are automatically generated as new content is added to the system to help you quickly identify and manage your content. You spend your time on your core workflow and deliverables while Odaptor works seamlessly in the background.
User Generated Content
Odaptor UGC is the most sophisticated and user friendly content submission service on the web. Now any web site can securely receive and display content received from your viewers; converted at speeds of at least three times real-time.
