Abstract
Methods and systems for processing media content are disclosed and may include a server operatively coupled to a network, a first communications device operatively coupled to the network, and a second communications device operatively coupled to the network. The second communications device may receive, from the first communications device, a device profile relating to the first communications device. The second communications device may send the device profile, received from the first communications device, and media content to the server. The server may reformat the media content based on the device profile received from the first communications device. The server may send the reformatted media content to the first communications device. The server may transcode the media content from a first type of format to a second type of format. The second type of format may be compatible with the first communications device.
