 Web UI for transcoding scenarios


WMSPanel provides excellent web interface for controlling and reporting media servers which works in any web browser.
Now we applied the same principles to transcoder workflow control:

  • Set up filters in a couple of clicks.
  • Drag-n-drop elements of transcoding scenario.
  • Apply changes without interruption of live streaming.
  • Apply settings to multiple servers in a few clicks.
The following YouTube channel playlist shows the UI:
