Yes, videos uploaded to Cloud On-Demand can typically be compressed. Compression reduces the file size, making it easier to store, stream, or transmit. This is especially useful for optimizing bandwidth and storage costs.
For example, if you upload a high-resolution video (e.g., 4K) to Cloud On-Demand, you can apply compression settings to reduce its size while maintaining acceptable quality. This is often done using transcoding services, which convert the video into a more efficient format (e.g., H.264 or H.265) with adjustable bitrate and resolution.
In Tencent Cloud, you can use Media Processing Service (MPS) to compress and transcode videos. MPS supports various codecs, resolutions, and bitrate configurations, allowing you to customize the compression level based on your needs. For instance, you can compress a 4K video to 1080p with H.265 encoding to significantly reduce file size while preserving quality.
