Abstract
The transcoding of a contribution feed into a plurality of output feeds in various formats can be monitored to ensure that unnecessary data is not transmitted in the contribution feed. Each output feed can be transcoded using respective values for a set of video format parameters. These values can be aggregated and analyzed to determine the lowest values for individual parameters that are being used for the various output feeds. A video encoder for the contribution feed can then dynamically modify the video format parameters used to encode the contribution feed in order to avoid encoding and transmitting data that is not actually used for these output streams, which can conserve resources such as network bandwidth, or enable those resources to be used more advantageously to send data that will actually result in higher quality video presentation in the output formats for current limitations or conditions.
