Wowza Media Systems®, the "any screen done right™" media server software company, and Encoding.com, the world's largest video encoding service, have announced a partnership that provides Wowza customers with custom Encoding.com presets to simplify the preparation and transcoding of videos into the optimal formats for adaptive bitrate delivery by Wowza Media Server®. The Wowza Media Server supports live and VOD adaptive bitrate streaming. However, encoding file content for adaptive bitrate delivery to popular playback clients, such as Flash®, Silverlight®, and Apple® iPhone®/iPad®, can be challenging for many enterprises. Using Encoding.com's cloud-based encoding solution and proprietary Encoding Intelligence™, Wowza customers can take advantage of a new set of Wowza encoding presets to easily produce common adaptive bitrate files from the plethora of source file formats for any-screen delivery by Wowza Media Server.
