Create an Encoding Job

To create a AOD encoding request, it is necessary to prepare certain resources beforehand, such as subtitles, a audio file. Before submitting the encoding request, ensuring these required resources are available is important. If they are not already available, they must be uploaded to the Audio library first. Once uploaded, their corresponding IDs can be obtained and used in the AOD encoding request.

For more information about uploading to Audio Library, see Upload Assets.

Here's a simple diagram of the process: AOD Encoding Flowchart

Once you have ensured all the required resources exist and have obtained their corresponding IDs, you can create the AOD encoding request using those IDs. The request can include a subtitle, queue type, metadata, security control, privacy settings, watermarks, domain control, geo control, DRM, and schedule.

The followings introduce each important attribute in more detail:

Source

When requesting a AOD encoding to BlendVision, we need to specify the source and subtitles for the media file.

1. Determine the source type

The source type can be one of the following:

SOURCE_TYPE_LIBRARY: if the source is uploaded from a local file

2. Create the source object

Based on the source type, create the source object accordingly.

If the source type is SOURCE_TYPE_LIBRARY, create the source object as follows:

"source":{
  "type":"SOURCE_TYPE_LIBRARY",
  "library":{
    "video":{
      "id":"your_audio_id_in_library"
    }
  }
}

3. Specify subtitles for the media file

Subtitles must be uploaded using /bv/cms/v1/library/files:upload API first, and the uploaded_data.id from the response should be used to specify the subtitle in the source object. Here's an example of how to specify subtitles:

"source":{
  "type":"SOURCE_TYPE_LIBRARY",
  "library":{
    "video":{
      "id":"6d706ee2-a1c2-41fe-9a68-b8ef23604f1a"
    },
    "subtitles":[
      {
        "id":"your_subtitles_id",
        "name":"English",
        "code":"en",
        "display":"true"
      }
    ]
  }
}
