Customize ProfileSet

BlendVision One CMS allows you to create a custom ProfileSet based on your specific requirements. This option offers greater flexibility and control over the encoding process. You can fine-tune various parameters to balance video quality, file size, and compatibility.

When customizing a ProfileSet, you can adjust parameters such as resolution, bitrate, frame rate, codec, audio settings, and more. This level of customization enables you to optimize video encoding for your target audience, delivery platforms, and content types.

By tailoring the ProfileSet to your specific needs, you can ensure that your videos are encoded precisely, resulting in your users' best viewing experiences.

Create a profile

To create a custom encoding configuration, you can use the following API to create a new profile with desired attributes:

POST /bv/configuration/v1/profiles

Here is an example of how to create a custom video profile with H.264 codec, 1280x720 resolution, 30 fps frame rate, and 2000 Kbps target video bitrate:

{
  "profile":{
    "name":"720p-30fps-2Mbps",
    "video_codec":"VIDEO_CODEC_H264",
    "video_width":1280,
    "video_height":720,
    "video_bitrate":"2000000",
    "audio_bitrate":"128000",
    "codec_profile":"CODEC_PROFILE_AUTO",
    "level":"CODEC_PROFILE_LEVEL_AUTO",
    "frame_rate":"FRAME_RATE_30",
    "standard":"RESOLUTION_TYPE_HD"
  }
}

You can customize the profile's name and set the video and audio bitrates according to your requirements.

Create a ProfileSet

Once you have created your custom video and audio profiles, you can create a custom ProfileSet. A ProfileSet is a collection of profiles that can be applied to VOD encodings. To create a profile set, use the following API:

POST /bv/configuration/v1/profile-sets

You can specify allowed values for each parameter in the profile_set object:

Field	Description
profile_ids	Specify the profiles this profile set should contain. Up to 10 profiles
protocols	PROTOCOL_HLS or PROTOCOL_DASH
smart_abr	Enable or disable the smart ABR feature
multiple_audio_track	Up to 10 customized audio tracks if the lang_from field is LANG_FROM_CUSTOMIZE
video_codec	VIDEO_CODEC_H264 or VIDEO_CODEC_H265

Here is an example of how to create a custom profile set with a 720p profile, two audio tracks, and MPEG-HLS protocol:

{
  "profile_ids":[
    "profile_id_of_720p-30fps-2Mbps",
    "other_profile_id_1",
    "other_profile_id_2"
  ],
  "profile_set":{
    "multiple_audio_track":{
      "lang_customizes":[
        {
          "code":"en",
          "display":"English"
        },
        {
          "code":"ja",
          "display":"Japanese"
        }
      ],
      "lang_from":"LANG_FROM_CUSTOMIZE"
    },
    "name":"H.264-720p-30fps",
    "protocols":[
      "PROTOCOL_HLS"
    ],
    "smart_abr":false,
    "video_codec":"VIDEO_CODEC_H264"
  }
}

The successful response will contain an id in the profile_set object, which you can use for the encoding.

These API calls allow you to customize the encoding profiles and create profile sets tailored to your requirements, providing flexibility and control over the encoding process.
