What’ s new in Flash Media Live Encoder 3
Flash
Media Live Encoder 3 includes the following new features:
- Multi-bit rate encoding
- Encode up to three streams at multiple bit rates and multiple
output video sizes simultaneously. Multi-bit rate encoding is applicable for
video streams, with or without audio.
- Digital video recording
- Lets you start and stop media recording on the server within
the encoding environment. When media recording is performed on the server,
users can seek and pause within a live video stream. Digital video recording
requires Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5. For more information,
see the Flash Media Server Developer Guide.
- Auto Adjust > Degrade quality
- The previous version of Flash Media Live Encoder, Flash Media
Encoder 2.5, included a frame dropping capability to ensure optimal
delivery of bits, even under suboptimal network conditions. In Flash
Media Live Encoder 3, you can automatically adjust encoding quality
by degrading quality or by dropping frames.
- Embed system time
- Embed the system time as timecode. This feature is useful if
you use a capture device that does not generate timecode information.
- Use parameters in filenames and stream names
- Include parameters, such as bit rate and others, to generate
meaningful stream names and filenames.
- Chunking of output files
- Save an encoded media stream in chunks, instead of a single
large file. You can create chunks by limiting the size and duration
of output files.
- New presets
- New presets for multi-bit rate encoding.
- Support for new devices
- For a list of supported devices, see www.adobe.com/go/FMLE_DeviceMatrix.
- Multi-core processing for VP6
- Encoding is shared on all available processors on your encoding
computer, which enables faster multi-bit rate encoding of VP6.
- Updated user interface
- The user interface has been streamlined and updated to make
it easier and more intuitive to use.
