Thanks to Encoding.com Link

A hearty thanks to Encoding.com for sponsoring Macdrifter this week. They offer a pretty incredible service. It’s not just an API. There’s a number of desktop integrations available too. Pretty slick.


Still encoding video with on-premise hardware? Encoding.com is the world’s fastest cloud encoding service. We’ve made proprietary optimizations for ingest, queue times, processing, and egress of your source content that rivals the fastest on-premise equipment, with infinite scalability.

We support nearly every video format imaginable, including a few that only we offer. We can accommodate a number of different transcoding workflows with an easy to use web interface, a flexible [watch folder](watch folder), a desktop uploader, or our robust and mature API. You can even automate basic editing tasks such as video overlays and concatenation programmatically using our API.

Vid.ly is a unique feature of our service that completely takes the guesswork out of your transcoding workflow, combining transcoding, device detection, delivery, and storage into a single short url.

Don’t take our word for it, try our forever free account today, complete with your own API key.
