RipCode

RipCode provides a realtime transcoding software for video clips and streaming.
RipCode’s technology processes simultaneous transcode paths. This consolidated, high concurrency processing enables RipCode to supplant existing servers and reduce overall hardware, storage and energy use. RipCode supports live mobile video or video on-demand transcoding for mobile and user generated content applications. RipCode enables video to be dynamically transcoded and served to a customer on any screen size as they request it, giving viewers an expansion of content choices while reducing an operator’s server hardware, storage and energy use.
