VOD ENCODING
Multi-pass Encoding
Ensure crystal-clear quality and maximize video processing efficiency through the Bitmovin VOD Encoder’s multi-pass encoding capabilities.
What is 2-pass encoding
2-pass encoding enhances video compression by producing files tailored to specific size or quality requirements, ensuring smoother streaming across devices. The first pass analyzes the video to understand its complexity, while the second pass compresses it, optimizing quality to avoid visual issues when played back.
What is 3-pass encoding
3-pass encoding extends the capabilities of 2-pass encoding by putting the video file through a third round of analysis and compression. This final pass focuses on identifying and optimizing any remaining segments to further enhance video quality while reducing file size, ensuring an ideal balance between quality and efficiency.
