Abstract
A method includes: ingesting a video; initializing a timed command stream synchronized to the video; emulating transcoding of the video to derive a sequence of video characteristics of the video; populating the timed command stream with the sequence of video characteristics; segmenting the video into a series of mezzanine segments. The method further includes: for each mezzanine segment, in the series of mezzanine segments: retrieving instream video characteristics, in the sequence of video characteristics, contained within a first segment of the timed command stream corresponding to the mezzanine segment; retrieving upstream video characteristics, in the sequence of video characteristics, preceding the first segment of the timed command stream and informing transcoding of the mezzanine segment; transforming the instream video characteristics and the upstream video characteristics into a set of transcode commands; storing the set of transcode commands in command frames; and inserting the command frames into the mezzanine segment.
