Embed Media
All media imported to New Spark Platform can be embedded on your website once it has been successfully transcoded by our system.
Viewing Transcoded Files
If an image or video has been converted based on an existing default or custom transcoder setting, you will find this on the Media Options page.
To view transcoded files:
-
Use the top navigation bar to select Media
-
On the Media Overview page, double-click an image or video
-
On the Media Details page, under Tools, click the Media Options button
-
From the Media Options page, click through the list of transcoder profile names to view the file
The transcoded image or video appears on the right of the screen.
Note: If the image or video file has not been created for a transcoder profile, a message appears indicating that the file has not yet been created. You have the option of creating it.
Reconverting Transcoded Files
If a transcoder setting is modified after a file has been created, you can reconvert the file. You may also have to reconvert a file if a problem arises during a conversion.

On the Media Overview page, double-click an image or video.

-
On the right side of the screen, under the image, click the Re-Convert button.
