How To: Encoding Video for iDevices

If you want to learn the tips and tricks of how to encode video for iDevices, then you don’t want to miss Jan Ozer’s how-to session at the Streaming Media East show next week. Jan’s session starts by detailing the playback specs for all iDevices, old and new. Then you’ll learn the strategies used by prominent iTunes publishers to serve the complete range of installed iDevices. Next, the seminar switches to cellular wireless delivery, with a technical description of Apple’s HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), including recommendations for the number of streams and Apple’s encoding parameters. You’ll walk away knowing how to encode for both iTunes and mobile delivery to iOS and compatible devices.
