In their own words
Bitmovin Encoding
Bitmovin Encoding converts video-on-demand content into streaming outputs, with batch conversion, hardware acceleration, and output resolutions up to 8K. Its encoder supports codecs including H.264/AVC, H.265/HEVC, VP8, VP9, AV1, and VVC, alongside multiple HDR formats. Per-Title Encoding analyzes each file to create an adaptive bitrate ladder, with configurable bitrate bounds and rungs; Per-Shot optimization is also supported. Output formats include MPEG-DASH, Apple HLS, Progressive MP4, and Smooth Streaming. Listed content protection includes Widevine, PlayReady, Marlin, FairPlay, ClearKey, AES encryption, multi-DRM, and forensic watermarking. The service can run on AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, Akamai Connected Cloud, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Cloud Connect uses customer cloud resources but requires a commercial agreement and account activation. VOD encoding is billed per output minute, with rates varying by features. The pay-as-you-go VOD plan lists 2,000 free minutes per month and $0.02 minute; outputs shorter than 10 seconds are billed as 10 seconds. Pay-as-you-go support tickets receive best-effort handling.
