Template Mapping

The Transcoding Mapping (short: mapping), connects various transcoding templates. This mapping is configured in the library settings and is available for use in both the ingest view and the gallery view (edit mode → re-render).

Consider the template mappings as "ingest styles," which are various methods for handling incoming source files. Since source files can come in numerous types and formats, different approaches are needed to manage and process these files effectively.

Create as many template mappings as necessary to handle different ingest scenarios, such as managing colorspace conversion.

Transcoding Templates

The transcoding template are used to process certain files like the main file or the different proxy formats.

Transcoding Tasks

These are the actual tasks that are performed when the transcoding template gets triggered.
Choose from on of the predefined tasks or create a custom command to run any custom command line.

NoOp

The no-operation is a handy feature to save file paths to the database but not perform any operation or transcoding.

Example only re-render thumbnail

Set everything in the transcoding mapping to noop transcoding task except the thumbnail. This will ignore everything and only re-render the thumbnail transcoding template.
