METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSFORMING AND DELIVERING VIDEO FILE CONTENT FOR MOBILE DEVICES

摘要

A method and system for accessing video file content is provided. When a user encounters a webpage with video content, the user can select to view the video content and wait for the server to transcode the video file and to stream the transcoded video file to the user's client device. Alternatively, the user may request that the server transcode the video file and to send the transcoded video file to the user's device, where the transcoded video file will be stored. While waiting for the video to be transcoded, the user may browse other websites, for example. The user may then view the video file at a later time that is convenient by accessing a video file inbox. The transcoded video file could alternatively be stored at the server, which can send a notification to the user's device to indicate that the video file has been transcoded.
