Transcoding: History, Drawbacks & Usage

Transcoding is the direct digital-to-digital conversion of one encoding to another, such as for video files, audio files, or character encoding. This is usually done in cases where a target device (or workflow) does not support the format or has limited storage capacity that mandates a reduced file size, or to convert incompatible or obsolete data to a…
