Hi All,
Trying to sort out what I believe is a fairly complex issue that only a few of the major video services are doing.
We are developing site that will have a high turnover of user-uploaded videos. The specs for the site are to be both Flash and HTML5 optimized.
How does YouTube pull this off without having the user upload both file formats (say, an FLV and MP4 file)?
I am looking for a single upload solution. No matter what the user is uploading, their video ends up online optimized for Flash and HTML5. Far as I know both YouTube and Vimeo are on this wagon. I don't know of many others that are.
Thank you,
MLink
