Video Transcoding (H.264/H.265)
Convert RED R3D, ARRI RAW and mixed-codec video to a web-playable MP4 on your object storage, with codec probing so a misleading file extension does not pick the wrong decoder.
Input
Enter a URL to a video file
Drag and drop a video file here, or click to browse
Output
{
"converted_url": "Object-storage URL of the transcoded H.264/H.265 MP4.",
"source_format": "Detected source format family: 'r3d' (RED), 'arri' (ARRI RAW) or 'standard' (FFmpeg-decodable).",
"width": "Output video width in pixels.",
"height": "Output video height in pixels.",
"duration_sec": "Output duration in seconds.",
"converted_size_bytes": "Size of the converted file in bytes."

Run this in StudioVideo Transcoding (H.264/H.265): common questions
- What is the Transcoding extractor used for?
- making RAW camera archives (RED/ARRI) ingestable and playable, normalizing mixed-codec libraries to one mezzanine format.
- When should I not use Transcoding?
- scene segmentation or embeddings (chain a collection with multimodal/video extractors on top of the converted output).
- How much does the Transcoding extractor cost?
- 20 cr/extraction. Credits are billed per unit processed; see mixpeek.com/pricing for the credit rate.
- What file types does Transcoding support?
- Video.

Scrolling Text Extractor
Read scrolling/marquee video text via phase-correlation band detection, panoramic stitching, and VLM OCR.
Reverse Video Search
Search your video library by submitting a video clip as the query. The pipeline decomposes the query video into scene-level embeddings and matches them against your indexed video collection to find visually and semantically similar content.
Multimodal Extractor
Unified embeddings for video, audio, image, and text: scene/silence chunking, Whisper transcription, thumbnails, and Gemini vision.
Video Semantic Search Pipeline
Build a production-ready video search engine that lets users find specific moments across thousands of hours of video using natural language queries.
Video Keyframe Extraction Pipeline
Extract representative keyframes from videos with scene detection. Generate thumbnails, visual summaries, and frame-level embeddings.
Hierarchical Classification
Assign content to multi-level category hierarchies using embedding-based classification. Define your taxonomy once, then classify new content automatically with confidence scores.
